My corporeal form lives with my wonderful wife and six eccentric cats in beautiful Sedgefield, but my dreaming body is frequently elsewhere, exploring the fractal universe and marveling at nature's chaos. I love traveling to places that exist only as mathematical constructs on my computer and bringing back snapshots that sometimes remind me of the real world (whatever that means), sometimes of metamagical worlds we can visit only in our imaginations. I trained as a biologist and run a small company specialising in science publishing - writing, editing, illustrating and typesetting. For 3D world building I use Vue, Daz Studio and Poser, but I've also used Bryce since version 2 and done some work with Terragen, Carrara and Groboto. For technical illustration I use mainly Illustrator and Photoshop.
Thanks for visiting my little corner of Renderosity, and to everyone who has kindly commented on my images or added my works as a favourite, thank you for that too. Craig.

Dolquern worked furiously. Quay's transmission had been brief but terrifyingly clear. He had her Flyer location bleeping in, and knew he had only moments to disable the drone before it caught up with his only remaining squad mate. If he failed, not only would Quaylor be taken alive, but he would be the last free and independent member of his group That was not a position Dolquern wanted to occupy under any circumstances, but especially not if he made it long enough to report to the Board. He didn't want to have to explain how he had lost his entire squad. He re-routed what he thought should be the last cable, entered the last programming sequence ... and nothing happened. "Okay," Dolquern thought, "concentrate and relax." He began a review of the circuit from the beginning, checking every step quickly, but taking nothing for granted. He knew Quay had very little time left. Everything looked okay. But! Ahh ... just there. Dolquern made an adjustment, entered the drone's command sequence once more, and heard Quay yell through the com. "Yee-ha! Thanks, buddy!" Dolquern slumped against the console in relief for a moment, then got up and started walking to the landing bay to meet Quaylor when she docked.

excellent image

Very nice. Motion blur on the background would have been "realistic" but would've hidden all that work on the background textures. Excellent lighting choice on the background! Very cinematic.

Many thanks for your input and support. I considered adding motion blur to the background, but came to the same conclusion as you - it would have been a pity to lose those amazing textures (Dreamlight's, not mine). So I compromised by adding a small amount of blur above and below the two subjects.

I love the lighting and use of color here. Some motion blur would really add a sense of speed to this already fine composition.
