Artist's Comments

At the point where things seem to be overwhelming, piling higher and higher. He’s resting in the equilibrium between life and defeat, which way he travels is ultimately up to him. That's what I see in this.

Hope you enjoy.

Technical notes:
15 second exposure. Flash light bounced at different angles and for different durations. Burn and dodge in PS.

**My first print, i hope u like**

This is a great image, both the concept and the delivery. The lighting make all the difference in this shot. I can tell that was a main focus. As far as critiqueing goes... maybe a slight bit lighter in the background under the figures left arm at the bottom. This way it would seperate more from the background. That's the only thing that caught my eye. But great work here!! And o yeah, howdy fellow SR DA!

they got a pretty good department with some good professors. Although they haven't dived into the digital arts yet. Which kinda sucks, since that's where my interest is. Only traditional media. BTW; I'm out of elmo.
