Description
Very self-reflective piece. Although thinking about it, this seems like it could be a universal snap-shot of mankind. Don't we all, at least sometime in our lives feel very much like we are on the outside of the snow globe looking at life going on inside that little glass bubble? As I get older and loose friends, family and neighbors to time, distance and death, I feel even more and more isolated. At least posting images to the gallery here helps to stave off the final act for awhile (small chuckle). What I would like to say is simply, enjoy those close to you and even those who aren't, for the precious moments that you do share with each other. Something to think about. Everyone have a good and safe weekend.

Great image with a lovely lady. Also, i really like what you say in the description , made me think as well, always make the most of life comes straight to my mind :)
Have guitar will travel! Awesome scene!
Wonderful scene with a beautiful character!
Excellent reflections in the image and words. Sage advice, my friend.. Life is short, and we don't know what's around the next corner. Make the most of life, every day.
I think I'm starting to get DS's lighting figured out, more or less. Is the BG an HDRI on the dome?
Awesome work as always, Dave!
Splendid work
a sad contemplation, but true, great image and awesome words to live by
So true mate, life is short and unpredictable so make every moment count.
Great composition Dave, like it!

Love your thoughtful art piece and commentary. We are near the same age and I very much relate to what you gave to say.
Surrealistic impact from the composition is superb, really first class image. Bravo, Dave!
Absolutely FABULOUS... I olve it a lot !!!
Hey Dave! get you perfectly about this sort of stuff. Great render and composition. There's nothing like a desert to bring on the feelings of isolation. Nice little model too!
Excellent
very sharp... love the comp and lights :)
This is a very beautiful and very nice!
Great render of a surreal desert scene with superb lighting and texturing, but I'm very disappointed that the two big, round things are covered up.

As I see it, if we limit our awareness to the physical aspect of existence, life is indeed senselessly tragic. But I've read and heard enough to be persuaded there's far more to life than the mere biological functioning of the physical body. Here I desist from preaching any specific religious doctrine; I merely encourage you to keep looking -- as in perusing and exploring the words of those who have seriously explored and inquired into such matters. The truth is out there... and quite possibly also in here.
