very nice, and a good idea to use the roots (I think they are ) for the face :-)
Simon Sherry replied

Thanks – the face is a combo of weathered rock, soil and vegetation/roots, so yup, you guessed right :o) Thanks for the kind words.

Thanks Liz – tell you what, you write a book for it to cover, and we’ll make it happen ;o)

Both are great, but this version has more context which gives it that extra impact
