"Kings of Kingley Street"
January 2013
Been at this siteĆĀ five years now and have seen a lot of growth - both artistically and spiritually thanks to the many good friends I have met here. I work with Poserpro2012, photoshop CS6, PSPX2, Perfect Effects 3 and Photomatrix 4. I love working in the material room and continue to find lots of growth there. I also do a lot of postwork fixing, special affects, and framing, all forĆĀ whichĆĀ photoshop is indispensible. I love doing postwork; no image is anywhere near complete without it.
In the last year or soĆĀ I've added quite a bit of photography to my gallery. I started with a Nikon Coolpix 9100 point and shoot. It gives amazing quality and its small size makes it easy to pack around and just grab some shots as they come into my vision. I still use it for sneaky people shots but now I useĆĀ a Nikon D5100 DSLR for my more serious keeper work. Had I known how all consuming my passion for photography would become I should have jumped to a D600 low end pro camera.In my gallery you will see mostly storylines based upon my own visions and versions of Mesopotamian Mythology, sprinkled with some Celtic works and an occasional pinup or two andĆĀ quite a fewĆĀ special requests. I have long been a writer, though a terrible speller, and soĆĀ most ofĆĀ my images come with a storyline or poem. No image seems complete to me without words to accompany them.In high school I trained in both the Sciences and Fine Arts but when I went to university I had to choose one or the other and so I went with the life sciences. Art dropped out of my life for a long time... though I never gave up my interest in archeology and mythology. I wound up with a graduate degree in the life sciences with majors in physical geography, ecology and evolutionary biology. My love of nature and a deep naturalistic spirituality eventually led me to the wikkan tradition.SomeĆĀ five and a halfĆĀ years ago I discovered poser afterĆĀ coming across some great 3-d art on the web and after someĆĀ six months of stumble bum practice I joined this site.Doing this type of art has released many visions and stories that were locked up inside my soul for many ages. It has allowed me to explore the life and times of my primal spiritual ancestor, a girl also named Roxanne, who lived in the Sumerian regions. She whispers the stories of these classic legends in my mind and I create the images to go with them.My stories are mostly written as dialogue and they tend to be rather long. So grab a coffee, a teaĆĀ or better yet a beer, kick back, relaxĆĀ and stay a while.I hope you enjoy your stay here.Hugs and blessed beRoxy

I imagine a great many stories could be made from this one perfect image. Forget a thousand words! Marvelous capture. It reminds me of River street in Savannah stateside.

what a great shot and post treatment. I love it when a photographer shows us not only the place they visit but captures the mood and feel of it as well--you did this here...it is great art to say the least--love it.

Amazing! Superb! Exhilarating! Those are just three of the words that popped into my mind when I saw this. I also suspect that it's a part of the inspiration for the city-state of New Crobuzon, as featured in the novel Perdido Street Station by China MiƩville. He's one of my favorite, new-ish writers, and this image feels the way his novels tend to feel. There's a touch of seediness that I hope remains, and the play of light, shadow, and architecture is truly glorious. This is a marvel of photographic work. I like it immensely.

Roxy, this just kicks butt! Wow! I really love the lighting playing on those arches - if not for the absense of distinct shadows, I would have thought it was a sunny day. This is superb, my friend! Wow - hope you get PP2012 working - you will love it. Unlike P8, it worked flawlessly from the start for me.
