"Heresy is like a tree, its roots lie in the darkness whilst its leaves wave in the sun and to those who suspect nought it has an attractive and pleasing appearance. Truly, you can prune away its branches, or even cut the tree to the ground, but it will grow up again ever the stronger and ever more comely. Yet all awhile the root grows thick and black, gnawing at the bitter soil, drawing its nourishment from the darkness, and growing even greater and more deeply entrenched."
The Chronicles of Horus Heresy

"Before me things create were none, save things Eternal, and eternal I endure. All hope abandon ye who enter here."
Dante's Divine Comedy

Enchanted! Need a larger version for a worthy wall. Truly enjoy the effects and composition. Wondering what is around the curve. A pleasure to view.

I do love the rainbow of colors in here, John, and the charm of a pleasant old world painting. So nicely presented.

John - Wonderful post-photo work on a very fine capture. I think the tone is quite optimistic, not a place in which to abandon hope. The lighting is excellent. Thad

Nice to see you hanging out with Norton again Shads. I always thought you guys made a great team. It sounds like he is missing Ralph just a little. I really like the tones in this one.

It reminds me of what roads looked like long before there were ever carbon burning vehicles... I can see a stagecoach traveling down this dirt road...
