Description "See the TURTLE of enormous girth!
On his shell he holds the earth.
His thought is slow but always kind;
He holds us all within his mind.
On his back all vows are made;
He sees the truth but mayn't aid.
He loves the land and loves the sea,
And even loves a child like me."

Stephen King - The Dark Tower

I am reminded of this from my favourite series of books

"See the TURTLE of enormous girth!
On his shell he holds the earth.
His thought is slow but always kind;
He holds us all within his mind.
On his back all vows are made;
He sees the truth but mayn't aid.
He loves the land and loves the sea,
And even loves a child like me."

wonderful manip, but I must say that the lensflare contrasts the ancient feeling of the manip and I find the lines somewhat disturbing

What's this I hear? Constructive comment!? YES, now I can say to take your critics and go to "yaaaay"

Kidding
The flare is too bright you say? It could do with more blur and fading I suppose
The lines where to try and make it look a little like a photograph
