Description
Thanks for viewing.
I submitted this one this morning but just wanted to add more. Not much... the ravens, some fog, better texturing, rescaling, changing trans maps... oh, well. Hope you like.
This image started out as an experiment in HDRI but I dropped that and went straight for Global Illumination. I wanted to create an eerie atmosphere without the image being darkened out.

Hang on... hang on... last minute update... couldn't decide between the sepia or the colour version... so here they both are :). You can throw the one you don't like.

Excellent artwork !
A wonderfully composed scene with superb atmospheric tone; well worthy of such an elegant frame.
gnark gnark gnark !! very good :)
Sepia works best for me. Nice atmosphere.
A L U C I N A N T E A R T W O R K ! ! !
I like both ! Excellent composition, poses and atmosphere !!
A very difficult decision. The color version looks more natural, the sepia version looks more spooky and it would make a fantastic book cover. Both pics are excellent compositions in every detail. vote
I agree with BGHart. Both are excellent for different reasons. Well done!! Vote
I like the sepia one best, looks more creepy, which I guess is the intention. Excellent work both.
Both look great but i like the sepia a little bit more.Great work!!!
Outstanding! I can't decide, I like them both equally. Well done!
Both are excellent, Scott! Leaning more towards the sepia spookiness! Try a blue tint also...that can be even more different! Then you could have 3 to choose from...LOL!
Great update. I see the hard choice of the sepia vs color, but the purple robe is awful hard to pass up on! But then.... the heck with it, if you can't pic a fav than how can I? LOL...Excellent work Scott!
Incredible work! A fantastic image!! Love the colored one because of the robe. Not sure why.
Oh very spooky indeed! It reminds of a Boris Karloff film. I think I prefer the black and white version but they are both wonderful!
Fantastic! I like both images very much! Excellent done!!
Great scene, love the old guy.
Awesome work you got here, like colors or more likely the lack of colors.. Excelient work here!
Beautiful work, Scott...i like both !!!
~Awesome~ The contrast of colors and depth give a MAGICAL touch to the scene... So Detailed & Beautifully created!! 'v'
Excelente trabajo
Just a great composition!
Heck, I like them both! Fantastic image. Love the transparencies and the mist and all. Really cool, Scott! LOVE IT! v
Yikes...don't show this one to the kids, they'll get nightmares...really creepy, Scott, I like the colors in this, what a terrifically scary image.
Choice is sepia because my eye discovers the character some fraction of time after the global sight of the yard.. whereas in the coloured one, on the contrary, it jumps immediately to the purple robe. Of course, both are quite excellentissime!
I love the first one much - very spooky. And excellent! Fantastisch!
Excellent artwork as always!
very impressive artwork. I like the improvements very much. 'V'
Great lighting and atmosphere...I love both..lol....GREAT JOB!!
Both versions are excellent, with great atmosphere. I'm partial to the bottom one - the colors are quite striking and he is the main focus and most interesting object in the image. :o) CC
