Graeme - very David Cronenburg/Clive Barkerish - this has to be one of the darkest images i've seen on here. freaky in the extreme. very well composited and framed and a fine/dark effort all round ;-)

OH! Extreme work! i really love it, dark, spooky, mystery. Love it! Positioning of the head on the left hand side works well for my desktop.

Hehe. ^_^ Touche! The darker the better. That last touch makes it definitely ultra-GRIM™

The work of art may have a moral effect, but to demand moral purpose from an artist is to make him ruin his work. (Johann Wolfgang von Goethe - 1832)

Mouth and nose are crazy cool. Like the blured tank and smooth lighting. Grim's got style.

I checked out "guerrilla benedictions" and found it quite good - this version is even better. Well done and thanks for the nightmares! :)

This is an amazing piece, very well done, it has a wondefull atmosphere to it, and creates a sense of fear, nicely disturbing.

Positively disturbing ... I really like this for the "holy crap" factor! I think I'm going to favorite this one. 10 thumbs up!

Is there anything more beautiful than a beautiful, beautiful flamingo, flying across in front of a beautiful sunset? And he's carrying a beautiful rose in his beak, and also he's carrying a very beautiful painting with his feet. And also, you're drunk. -Jack Handy

Tremendous image. The subject, the background, the colours, the foreground. Everything fits so perfectly. A FAV without a shadow of a doubt. Magnificent piece of work.
