Daily Deviation:: Dark Days :: by *GVA I like it, it reminds me of "Wanderer Above the Sea of Fog" by Kasper David Friedrich. A good portrayal of the untamed power of nature! (Suggested by ~Dibi and Featured by `garrit)

You really have to be proud of this. The tones are perfect. I like how the detail is almost completely gone in the silhouette. You almost feel his triumph. I'm off to see your gallery for sure.

If you're so 'special,' where's your helmet?

I don't have a problem with Authority, I have a problem with the small minded people who wield it.
