In preparation of taking a break from Flickr for two weeks I had to select a series of images to pull from Flickr to post on my photoblog. (The break was at the suggestion of a friend, and it is a long overdue thing I’ve wanted to do. ) It was interesting having to choose eight or nine images at the same time, because I usually tend to do this spontaneously as I create an entry.

This image was created in Adobe Photoshop from three separate photos. It looks dramatically darker on the monitor I’m currently viewing it on, which gives it a completely different atmosphere than I’d intended – more menacing than mysterious and ethereal.
