Description
Done for ~dizzykaleidoscope .
This was to portray love and adoration, a magical moment on a beach, where the world seemed to fade away. Nothing existed save for those two, the stark beauty of raw feelings.
This is less than 1/4 the original size of the image.
If anyone wants any closeups of anything let me know, otherwise I probably won't do any. Original size: 3072x5151px
62 active layers, 77 total.
Roughly 30-35 hours.
Done completely in CS2, aided with a Wacom Inuos3 tablet.

Breathtaking. How can I possibly hope to have a single fraction the time, skill, patience, and creativity you show? It's kind of depressing, actually. Just when I've done something I think might be worthy of notice, one of you strikes back with something mind-blowing. This is positively stunning. I admire you so very much. Thank you so much for being one of those beacons of inspiration shining in the darkness for me. <3

Oh darling, you should be proud of each and every one of your creations. I know sometimes it's hard (believe me! I get so sick of looking at mine that I could puke), but if you put the time and effort into it... You know? 
Thanks much for not only looking, but liking it too. You're a dollface and I hope one day you can see your creations like the rest of us do.

Arrsis, this is seriously one of the most beautiful pieces of art I've ever seen. Have you considered putting it up as a print?

girly, I didn't even have to see your note to know my stock was in that picture. I saw the thumbnail from my art account and immediately said "hey, that's MY head and neck, but not my horse laying down..."
I'm glad you found a use for it. I love seeing creative use of the angles I get, it encourages me to keep trying the weird stuff that makes everyone else ask "Why would you take THAT picture?"

That's a good stocker right there, knows all their photographs.
Nah, creative angles are awesome from a manipulators standpoint. It really allows creative freedom and movement... without pics like yours, images like mine could never be made.

That is so absolutely STUNNING... how is it that you always make your photomanipulations look like paintings?
The concept is beautiful, too; such a sweet, tender moment between the two horses.
