    New Book

    Just my personal opinion, but i have a slight problem with the couple kissing in the water, i find it to be a little Surreal, i believe a modern styled image would fit in with the rest of the cover more...... like i say, just my own personal preference. Either way I'll be looking out for copy...

    My first HDR

    Awsome shot Andy, i really think that's a wicked shot and then HDR on it. Mid_Gen, i was trying to go for a moody gothic illustrated feel, i think it might have come out better if i added a dark overcast sky, as the shot was taken on a beautiful sunny day, it doesn't quite go with what i was...
