Stormchaser

Many thanks to Geoff Coleman for graciously lending me his lightening bolt to create this image. He hasn’t seen it yet so I hope he likes it!

The highway image was taken on our trek across the Nullabor Plain when we moved from WA to Tasmania, on the part where there is not one single bend in the road for 100km’s… or is it 100miles? Oops… I forget, nevermind, I am sure someone will let me know =) It’s a bloody long stretch of straight road anyways ;)

Stormchaser I no longer hide under the bed =)

    Jeeze Rhana, you know what lightning does to me first thing in the morning…
    This is all about driving into the future with the excitement and anticipation that accompanies the unknown. Thunder and lightning floats my boat, so natch your picture does it for me too. Great job of creating the mood… I SO wanna speed down that highway! What a lovely way too get my juices running on a Friday morn!!

  • Rhana GriffinRedbubbley Schweppervescence replied

    (insert very large smile here) Now that is cool, being your Friday morning pick-me-up xx

    I love lightning and I love storm clouds lit by lightning. I also love it when you can see things in the shape of the cloud and this face is marvellous. Beautifully coposed and the colour is really stormy. Beautifully done.

  • Rhana GriffinRedbubbley Schweppervescence replied

    Jan… your comment has made me examine this image minutely… I am buggered if I can see a face in there! But then again, I am shite with those magic eye picture thingies too ;)

    It’s like the opening scenes to the film thingy (Sorry but a week of learning Financial Reporting removes all useful words from your vocabulary i’ve discovered – you know the one I mean, lightning strikes, lights the floor up – can’t remember the name of the company now – Dammit can i remember anything other than damn ratios!)

    Ahem…..... Lovely work – The light within the dark is superb, works superbly well together and the hint of purple throughout is just soothing among the great power of lightning.

    Turns out you don’t need a vocabulary to convey your thoughts to me Stuart =) And hell yes it does look like that doesn’t it?? That is so damn cool! Now if only I could remember which film company does it…

    OH MY GOD What hast thou done thou PS wizard!! I LOVE IT. MUST HAVE IMMEDIATELY!! What a brilliant idea, brilliantly executed – the way the road tunnels through the lightning light with that endless blackness drawing it on…. sigh. One day I hope to be half as good at this. Just magnificent my friend. MUST HAVE MUST HAVE MUST HAVE!

  • Rhana GriffinRedbubbley Schweppervescence replied

    (insert a little very heartfelt yay! right here)

    Geoff I am so glad you like what I have done with your lightening. The creative process on this one was very soothing to a battered soul. Can’t wait to see what you come back with ;)

    Rhana, the face is sideways, on the right, just below the lightning bolt, which actually caresses the upper cheek. The face has a fairly prominent chin, sunken, dark eyes, and a well-formed nose. The chin is on the right and forehead is near the center. Hope this helps you see it.

    Amazing work! Fantastic collaberation! It is so mystical, enchanting and magical, it takes my breath away! I bet that Geoff was happy with this, when he saw it!! There is nothing like a straight road that disappears beyond the horizon, is there? Really shows the curve of the earth! (How did they ever think the earth was flat?!!)
