Description
Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore..."
Ah, one of the favorite pieces of literature in the Manor's Library. One could sit there and read it all night, a dark and stormy night of course. When lightning flashes and the ghosts of the evening come out to haunt the souls of humans, when candles flicker in the cold air.
Happy Halloween in case I don't get another chance. Hope you enjoy this haunted wallpaper. I figured who better represents this season than the master of the macabre himself, Edgar Allen Poe.
Comments always welcome.
Thanks for looking and your support of my work. It means a lot.

WOnderful lighting and composition. Fantastic image.
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary~ Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore~ While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door" 'Tis some visitor," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door~ Only this and nothing more." :Poe, Gotta love him! Super excellent posting Shadow!!!!! Stunning and perfect! Dave :^)

Wonderful artwork! I read all his books/stories. Fantastic idea for Halloween time! V (:
Amazing colours and detail shadow , love the light as well , very well done:-)
Wow! Very nicely done! Beautiful concept. Beautiful lighting and textures. Colours go together so well! Excellent posing of the Raven! Ive always liked Edgar Allen Poe. Way to go! I think this is the first time I have seen art in this form here. I mean inside as opposed to outside. Non living things playing such an important part in the artwork. To me the book is the main focal point. Way to go! Rick :)
One of your best ! I love it and you get my "V"
Wonderfully good stuff. The scene and Poe go good together.
Wonderful theme!!! Very beautiful work and atmosphere!!!
Wow, this is just fantastic. What a super scene you created. And I, too,love that poem. I had a fascinating professor in a literature class in college who read Poe to us with much drama and passion. A vote for this one. :o) CC
