This image has been quite a while in the making.. DJ (xyccoc) and I got the idea to do a collab, and he came up with this figure he made in Poser 6 and Bryce.. Using some old water photos of mine, it took me a few months of off and on work to finally come up with something i liked. The fractals were made with good ol KPT. Hope you enjoy ;]

Super image. Very dynamic. Interesting on so many levels. Cool textures, beautifully distributed color, marvelous pose by the figure, great reflections, and the title fits perfectly. Great job.

This is excellent, the fractals and the water are lovely, the glassy look of the figure is great and the colors are perfect. Great job to you all. The only thing is that I wonder why you pixelized parts of the top half, especially the light blue color.

For what is quite possibly the first time, no words can come to mind to describe the absolute awesomeness that is this image. Incredible collaboration and I must say, I have been waiting for you two to do something together and I think this is well worth the wait. Each time i look at this image i'm even more blown away. The incredible attention to detail, the best colour choice possible =P and the seamless blend of the peices of artwork. The lighting is amazing, throwing out shadows and bringing out the image. Truly fantastic. One thing that I think might look neat is not having that blue beam coming from his temples be pixelated, but just a smooth blend of soft, subtle colours. But of course that's just my preference. As I must have said before Amazing work! Truly phenomal what someone can do with determination, time, and effort. I look forward to seeing more collaborations from you two, and again, simply breathtaking.
