<sub>Ancient Pathways

i dont want to go on about what an effort this way for me to take, because it will take some of the magick from it, but please consider the hard planning and what a climb i had to do to get this!
i hope the scale comes across well, cos the rocks in the foreground are about the height of 11 buses! but i dont think i'l say much more and just let the view speak for itself

camera: canon350d
location: Storr, Scotland</sub>

_{my recent art at *lucias-tears}





my myspace





new rules and guidelines

this account is on hiatus
even though i no longer log into this account i will leave my photos up for you to use
you must still note me when you use my work (or comment on the deviation you've used)
do not leave comments on my page - i wont read them.
do not use my stock in the Delerium contest that DA is hosting [link]
im joining and in agreeing the rules arnt fair, plus the idea of someone getting $550 off my work at the moment is a bit of a kick in the teeth considering my current situation ( see *lucias-tears ) however if someone is willing to offer compensation, i.e a small payment for my modelling/costume/photography skill i am interested in hearing from you ( note *lucias-tears )
for print approval note
to hang out with me on dA and see how im doing visit

oh, and as soon as im back on my feet i will sort out the winner of the autumn/hallowe'en competion, asap i promise :empty-star:

ok, i think thats it for now, iv tried to say it simply, i hope you'l understand

sorry iv had to say these things, but, yeh, i think some of you kinda know why.

love to all, i'l still be around xoxo

i liked this theme, because there are so many different ways it can be interpreted!

the main three (although obviously not limited to these) are:

a gemstone is the focus of the piece,either a character is holding one, or maybe its part of a building or something
the piece is gemstone coloured themed. a piece in red tones and colours can be entered as Ruby, and blue tones piece as Sapphire, green Emerald, get the idea?
or Gemstones can part of the concept of the piece, a pirate hunting for treasure, an archeolgist digging for ancient gems, a dragon protecting its lair full of precious stones, even the zodiacs - maybe you want to depict a zodiac sign associated with a particular gemstone .. so many things you can do!!

remember the main rule is that you have to use my stock somewhere in your piece!
see here for more info and a full list of all the wonderful prizes!


so what are the prizes?!
do you have a list of all the entries?

take care everyone and good luck when entering the comp!
