Artist's Comments


One of my works presented in my solo exhibition called "urbania".


****

Thus Spake Zarathustra By Friedrich Nietzche.

Nietzche Writes about the concept of 'superman'.
A man who overcame his handicaps and identified with God.
Nietzche's influence is still being felt in the world today.

Now, What's all that to do with this picture?
It's a reflection in a puddle. The colors and dramatic angle gave me the feeling of a strong man, a lonely man. A man powerful enough to think he is a superman, above all others. Something in that drama made this image of a "superman" come to mind.

Well, That's how i feel about it.

Wow, a testament to not needing photoshop to get cool effects. There a a lot of people who would combine two pictures to get that effect. Amazing picture. This is a +fav to be sure.

Incredible photo, I really like the mood .... and one of those pics where you first have to look for a while before you become aware of what you actually see.
