Description
The text was done in Photoshop and used as a transparency just under the water's surface to get the warpage. Clicked "additive" under Material Options in the Material Lab to make it brighter.
I know the sight of a guy in a derby with an umbrella will bring Magritte to mind for some, but as much as I admire Magritte's work, this has nothing to do with him. I just like the old Poser Dork Businessman as the "ordinary man".

Marvelous work! I like the text work.
You never cease to delight and amaze. I am in awe of your work!
That's an interesting technique the way you used the words.
wow, "real" warpage! very nice one.
wow, that is so beautiful and sad. the water and overall color scheme of this image are spot on.
Excellent image!
An ideal accompaniment to a slate-grey mood. I think its impact - which is considerable, by the way - would not be lessened if the ghost woman were not there; it might even be increased.
Well done!
..a fan.
very fine image.
Excellent!
Great sentement to this, I love it.
Brilliant work...haunting
Great work. Very good picture. Poetic mood.
Excellent stuff.
AWESOME work !!! EXCELLENT presentation !!!
I don't know how I missed this one. This is a masterful image...I can almost feel this poor man's sorrow and lonliness at the loss of his loved one. Yet at the same time there is a serenity to the mood of this scene...as if the apparition has brought him a measure of comfort. Very well done!!!!!
