Lonely Birthday

It was a cold October evening, and it rained that night. October has always been that grim; chilly and dark - much like within this lonely man's heart.

He sat by the window and watched the falling leaves from behind a thin barrier of glass. One by

The Lonely Recluse

Through a dark haze, a faint light greeted his vision. He opened his eyes fully, and found that he was gazing at the sky. The bright blue heavens bore pale downy clouds drifting peacefully above him. He sat up, spying a vast field of lush green grass and flowers swaying back and forth in the soft wind, and it came into view perfectly from up on the hill where he was sitting.

Behind him, he saw a tall, sturdy tree occupying the center of the hill, its lovely green leaves rustling in the soothing wind. A rather young woman, slender, with long, flowing russet hair, leaned against the trunk. So beautiful was s

The Cave of the Gi

By the time Aeris reached the bottom of the cave, she must have regretted her decision to come down here in the first place about a thousand times. In a supposedly haunted cave, carrying no Materia, and a mere staff and a lantern? No, she thought to herself, definitely not one of her brightest ideas.

Her feet finally touched the ground after a long and tedious climb. She huffed and wheezed, gasping for air, her entire body moist from perspiration. She reminded herself that this was only the beginning. To think that they had barely even entered the cave! And already, her head swam, her ears rung, and her visi

The Elder

Much to Tifa's relief (and Cloud's surprise), Vincent had agreed to escort Aeris. What he had not predicted, however, was such a long journey. Try as he may, he could not guess Aeris' reasons for choosing Cosmo Canyon as her destination, neither would he bother to inquire about it; he reckoned that in due time, it would be revealed to him one way or another.

During their long and tiresome journey by air and then by sea, Aeris had spent some time examining Vincent discreetly while attempting to strike up conversations with him which were not particularly fruitful. Most of the time, he would fold his arms across his che

The Way Home - Ch. 3Chapter 3: A Broken Promise

By the time Sokka returned home following the council meeting, the sun just about converged with the horizon, painting the skies and surrounding clouds in tints of crimson and orange.

He managed to briefly visit Air Temple Island and join his sister and Aang, and their rambunctious children for dinner. The councilman requested Katara to let Lin stay the night on the island; he'd told her that a stack of papers still waited for him on his desk, and he would most likely be working well into the night to get it all done on time.

He sailed back to the mainland but from there, he didn't take the usual route to City H

An old winter shot. Found this among pics I've taken about two years ago, so I figured I might as well add this to my gallery too. I'm not sure why I haven't already. Ah, well.

Critiques are always appreciated!

This picture's simplicity makes it beautiful and seem natural. This shot must have been taken after an ice storm of some sort because the crystals seem to indicate a strange and rapid frost. We can almost feel the chills running down our spines from the cold winters that some of us might live.

The shot is done with wonderful clarity, showing off each spike of frost in its very technical and wonderful detail. This picture is a wonderful gateway to the rest of this artist's gallery. Over all, this shot is beautiful, realistic and brings back winter chills just in time for the crazy heat of the summer that is here, waiting to thwart us with its insane humidity.

Oooh! I love it!

I don't know but I always feel good when I see pictures realated in snow or winter...

Great Job!

Hehe, thanks a lot. I'm glad someone likes it. I'm happy when my artwork brings a smile to someone's face. : )

~midniqhtreverie May 21, 2009

What an amazing photo~ However, I'm curious like the first comment... What is it?

~Rhoey May 21, 2009 General Artist

It's what the title says, it's frost on a bush. But it's interesting, seeing as when the frost was formed, it was windy, thus shaping the ice into little spears wherever it settled. It was quite an interesting sight, very unusual too.

~midniqhtreverie Jun 2, 2009

Yeah, still a very pretty picture though. I wish my photography was as good as yours. However, if I don't get a better camera and more practice, it's going to continue to be craptastical. xD

~Rhoey Jun 21, 2009 General Artist

I don't think I'm too good either. ^^ ;
But I'm trying, at least. I don't aim to become a pro, it's just something I do as a hobby.

~midniqhtreverie Jun 24, 2009

Yeah... I like to do it for a hobby too. My friend that I have a photo of used it as a part of her senior portraits album.

~Rhoey Jun 29, 2009 General Artist

Too bad I suck at it, though.
Hehe, that's really nice. : )
