Image taken at Hedingham Castle. I've changed the view through the window, added the water, the mist, the crow and the necklace... and changed the colours and played around with it quite considerably. LOL I like the fairytale atmosphere. :-) I think this would make the perfect book cover.

I bought a few wooden print blocks and letters a little while back and took pictures of them from different angles and in different positions. This one, when I looked at the S on its back, looked to me like it would make the perfect house. :-) The beach image was taken at Holme Beach, UK. I'd love to live there and always wanted to live in a really unusual house with higgledy piggledy rooms and secret stairs. LOL

Created with my own photographs in Photoshop, no stock used.

All my images are available on Redbubble, Artflakes, Society6 and Bluecanvas as prints, cards, posters, skins for laptops, Blackberry, iPhones and other phones (for the skins go to Bluecanvas).

The Dark Tower

 

 

 

Inspired by The Dark Tower series by Stephen King. This is an interpretation of Eddie's dream. He sees the tower on a field of roses with a blue sky behind it.

Although this is a photo manipulation it involved a lot of drawing. The original tower image was of only a fraction of the tower you see here and it didn't have any windows. The only meadow with red flowers I could find was of poppies so all the roses have been put in by me. There are literally hundreds of masks in this image to blend it all together. LOL I love The Dark Tower series and wanted to get it right. :-)

Rapunzel's Lament

Re-telling of the fairy tale Rapunzel - my way. See the poem here.

This was created in part to accompany my poem of the same name and as an entry in a challenge for the Photo Manipulator's group on Redbubble.

Unfortunately I was too late to enter my image, but I thought 'since I've started, I might as well finish'. :-)

One stipulation of the challenge was to use all the images from the following image set on Flickr:
