Artist's Comments

This is my first ever photo manipulation; it's actually an assignment that I was given in my Computer Graphics class recently.

[edited with links]
The background was a search for "forests" at Google [link] and I'm sure some of you recognize the girl; that image was obtained free from gettyimages.com [link]. All in all, I'm very proud of this piece so I decided I should post it in DA. :-)

Since it's in a forest, I thought that a fitting and ever so inspiring title would be "The Forest of October", which is one of my favorite songs by Opeth.

LYRICS:
The memories that now rests in this forest
Forever shadowing the sunrise of my heart
Wings leave their nest at my coming
Swaying away unto the cold glowing sky
Dreaming away for a while
My spirit sighs in peace
Gazing unto the stars
Please, take me there

I am so alone, so cold
My heart is to scarred to glow
I wish the sunrise to come
Take my soul (away)
From this cold, lonely shell
I am free

From the eternal sea I rose
Veiled in darkness on either shore
Lost my pride, lost its glow
For me the sun rose no more

The forest of October
Sleeps silent when I depart
The web of time
Hides my last trace

My blaze travel the last universe
Like the sights of magic
Wrapped in aeons
My mind is one with my soul
I fall alone
While leaves fall from the weeping trees

the poem and the picture are beautifully done a superb pice :+fav:
:iconnocturnedesires:
Good job on blending it. I think it would be important to give the original links that you got the stock images from. That way, we can see how much altering you did.

We would like to state that the Wheel stands beyond any criticism. If any man should attempt to criticize the Wheel, he should throughly patronized for his obvious Jewish behavior.

Lest bitterness and chaos be the harvest they wouldst reap
For she must never waken from this Crimson Sleep
:iconholy-misanthropy:
The ";poem" you refer to is actually a song.
But thanks for the fav; it means a lot. :heart:

Beautifully blended... wouldn't have known it was a manip except that the quality of each piece is slightly different.
