“I believe life is constantly testing us for our level of commitment, and life's greatest rewards are reserved for those who demonstrate a never-ending commitment to act until they achieve. This level of resolve can move mountains, but it must be constant and consistent. As simplistic as this may sound, it is still the common denominator separating those who live their dreams from those who live in regret.” ~ Anthony Robbins

Title: Dreaming
This is an original oil painting by artist Christopher Clark of a beautiful young woman reclining nude on a couch, with the warm glow of afternoon sunlight illuminating the window.
Yet another Contest entry. Yep, I've been busy. Anyways, I built this about two weeks ago, and it was quite fun and quick. I had the idea to have him dreaming of something terrifying in his bed. What else would you do with the sleeping face?

Overview, without the Sleepyhead.
Built April 2012
the morning is soft,
the sun still gentle,
forgiving.
i sit in a quiet house
eagerly devouring the silence
like a forbidden fruit.
all are asleep,
perhaps dreaming,
without desire for more.
no struggle for my attention,
nor needs to fulfill.
i simply sip my bitter coffee,
guide my pen,
...
And at night, as he slept, fairies would hold his eyes closed so the beauty of his dreams would not escape.

Dream is a 2009 sculpture and a piece of public art by Jaume Plensa , on the old Sutton Manor Colliery site, St Helens, Merseyside.
Dream consists of an elongated white structure 66 feet (20 m) tall, weighing 500 tonnes, which has been cast to resemble the head and neck of a young woman with her eyes closed in meditation. The structure is coated in sparkling white Spanish dolomite, as a contrast to the coal which used to be mined here. It cost nearly £1.9 million and it is hoped it will become as powerful a symbol in North West England as Antony Gormley's Angel of the North is in North East England.
Jaume Plensa himself stated "When I first came to the site I immediately thought something coming out of the earth was needed. I decided to do a head of a nine-year-old girl which is representing this idea of the future. It's unique."
Jesse Taylor is today's new Stranger. I meet him as I was taking out my garbage. He was headfirst into the back of his van sorting out some wiring. I noticed the guitar and music gear and stopped for a chat.
Jesse appears to be living the dream... He has taken his love of mosaic and combined it with surfing and manages to keep it all together travelling and singing in his renovated tradies van. Currently he does his gigs, mainly around the Sunshine Coast but nest weekend will find him playing at Byron Bay in between hitting the waves.
Writing most of his own material, Jesse describes his style as Folk but will dabble in other genres such as Jazz and Reggie.
When I dream, it will be the beginning of time. When I awake, it will be with two palms timidly outstretched to praise the derelict beauty of the universe.

A picture of an house in Kingswood Bristol.U.K. It was taken in the rain which resulted in making it resemble a dream-like house.
This shoot was themed based on the fact that we're having a veeery strange winter here in Canada. Usually by this time I would be sliding on ice while walking on the ground and having my ears, nose, and eyelashes collecting ice, but the weather is tame this year, and if it snows it barely lasts for 24 hours before the rain washes it away. I don't know if I should complain or not, there's still about two months of winter left, we'll see, lol.
A custom Licca, Nona, dreaming of snow angels. <3
The other night when I came home and there was a bit of snow on the ground I literally made a snow angel on my driveway, hahaha.
Shot in predawn light, this is actually the first time I saw reflection at Dream lake after countless visits in the past few years. The last time I visited (3 days ago) I couldn't even breath at times when facing the 50mph+ wind. For some reason this is a grayish place for me - every other color is too cheerful. This is probably due to its lack of interesting light and the intolerable weather every time I visited. The BW conversion (with a hint of warming filter) also suits the mood when I hiked in the dark and totally deprived of sleep.
Even in half-sleep I was jittery excited when I hiked up because there were clouds, no wind, and the eastern sky was lighting up nicely. But 5 minutes after this shot it started to rain! This is a 20-second exposure with slight warm-filtering in post-processing.

"Dreaming a Reality - Senses Fail"
Dreaming my reality
where truth and fiction don't seem to exist
Confusion is home here, but believe in you is what you insist (it's what you insist)
Well I try and i won't get far,
i'll die and i won't get far
i'll try and know that everything's ok
I have no idea why there's a British flag in this. I thought it looked good, haha.
