A funny image of the old moon himself taking havick on earth after the space shuttle crashes into him.
It’s a marvelous night for a Moon Dance..
Since our dawn, man has always looked to the stars to make sense of the chaos that we create. And to me, it only seems fitting that our future should lie beyond our own planet, if we don’t mess it all up first. The main tone underlying this work is that we should look at our history in order to understand our future – and I’ve used the Mayans as a reference to the good and bad things that we have achieved. I’d like to think that this being dominating the artwork could very well be us, in our own creation of what we believe as interstellar beings. Kind of like life imitating art. The dome of his head is actually Mars, a planet many have speculated that could be an older version of our own Earth and a glimpse into our future. Behind the his head, and also tattooed on his brow, is part of the very advanced Mayan long-count calendar, which runs out on the 22nd December 2012 – a date that many historians are looking forward to, especially given today’s fragile climate. Some speculate that it could mark an approximate date to the end of life as we know it. Which ties in with other totally unrelated theories about our oil crisis, global warming, and so on. / In his eyes, he sees a horizon of fire which symbolizes the earth cleansing itself, although we’d see it as mass destruction. This is synonomous with our understanding of the Mayan civilization and how it overpopulated and crumbled under the high demand of such an over-indulgent society. The moon shots are from the recent lunar eclipse. I included this because the moon plays such an important part in our life, and the stabalisation of the planet – it moves away from the Earth at just under 4cm each year. Finally, I’ve used the Mayan Chichen Itza temple at the bottom of the piece as a stairway to the heavens, common with Mayan, Egyptian, and other beliefs.

I was saddened to hear that Oink, who features in this artwork, had been subject to vicious attacks from thugs. They had been throwing bricks at him and putting washing up liquid in the 15 year old’s water trough. After hearing about the threat to Oink’s safety, David Larkin kindly donated and set up a CCTV sytem in Oink’s field. Other well-wishers are making donations to Oinks fund, which will raise money towards providing further security for Oink, such as a new fence. Read the full story, here Oink’s fund is now closed The tranquil beast in this photo manipulation is a Water Buffalo. I think he’s the only one in the UK, and I stumbled across him while out walking my dog in some local fields. His name is Oink! He got stranded in his field during the floods a few months ago. Luckily, he found his way to safety and became quite the celebrity in the animal world! This was edited in a similar way to my other work, Lord of the Water. Please click on this link for details. Please see my other work Arctic Beast also featuring Oink.

Photoshop Music: Moonscape August 13, 2009: Avatar of the week in : Peace. Love and Tranquility Featured in: / Tarot-Map of Consciousness Basic meaning of the Moon-card in Tarot: With Pisces as its ruling sign, the Moon is all about visions and illusions, madness, genius and poetry. This is a card that has to do with sleep, and so with both dreams and nightmares. It is a scary card in that it warns that there might be hidden enemies, tricks and falsehoods. But it should also be remembered that this is a card of great creativity, of powerful magic, primal feelings and intuition.
Thanks for your help George Lenz / Layers and blends used in PhotoShop… / By using Photoshop, I used 4 different layers here to configure this piece. I took the clouds in one layer, added the egrets in another layer, George Lenz was so kind to help me with the moon layer and I also added a nice flood filter to give the reflections and blending them all in I’m staring out into the night / And trying to hide the pain / I’m going to the place where love / and feeling good don’t ever cost a thing, / And the pain you feel’s a different kind of pain / I’m going home to the place where I belong / where your love has always been enough for me / I’m running from you know I think you got me all wrong / I don’t regret this life I chose for me / But these places and these faces are getting old / So I’m going home / The miles are getting longer it seems / The closer I get to you…. babe / I’ve not always been the best woman and friend for you / But your love remains true and I don’t know why / You always seem to give me another try / I’m going home / To the place where I belong / Where your love has always been good enough for me / I’m running from you know I think you got me all wrong / I don’t regret this life I chose for me / But these places and these faces are getting old / Be careful what you wish for / cause you just might get it all / you just might get it all and then some you dont want / be careful what you wish for cause you just might get it all / You just might get it all / I’m going home to the place where I belong / Where your love has always been enough for me / And I’m running from.. you know I think you got me all wrong / I don’t regret this life I chose for me’ / But these places and these faces are getting old / But these places and these faces are getting old / I’m going home Credits to Chris Daughtry
So I know there’s gotta be other people out there excited about the release of the new Batman Movie The Dark Knight, or is it just me? This is a tribute to possibly one of my favourite movies! This is also one of my first really serious attempts at creating some digital artwork in Photoshop. This is the result of me having a lot of time, sitting at home sick when I should be at work. The question is can you see Batman?? For this I started off with one of my pics of Melbourne, Australia from Southbank which was a HDR from 3 exposures. I then added in bats, flood lights, batman, the moon etc. and then once again a lot of tinkering in Lightroom to finetune :) This image has had over 5000 views Sales 1 Mounted Print 1 Poster Click here for my other images of Melbourne
