It was a great pleasure for me to create a surreal image again. Thanks to the so inspiring Dylan's songs, it became easier to translate feelings into colors and shapes. I am very thankful of the opportunity, and of course, very thankful of the kind feedback: it is very motivating.
Let me share "Not Dark Yet" lyrics with you:
Shadows are falling and I’ve been here all day
It’s too hot to sleep, time is running away
Feel like my soul has turned into steel
I’ve still got the scars that the sun didn’t heal
There’s not even room enough to be anywhere
It’s not dark yet, but it’s getting there
Well, my sense of humanity has gone down the drain
Behind every beautiful thing there’s been some kind of pain
She wrote me a letter and she wrote it so kind
She put down in writing what was in her mind
I just don’t see why I should even care
It’s not dark yet, but it’s getting there
Well, I’ve been to London and I’ve been to gay Paree
I’ve followed the river and I got to the sea
I’ve been down on the bottom of a world full of lies
I ain’t looking for nothing in anyone’s eyes
Sometimes my burden seems more than I can bear
It’s not dark yet, but it’s getting there
I was born here and I’ll die here against my will
I know it looks like I’m moving, but I’m standing still
Every nerve in my body is so vacant and numb
I can’t even remember what it was I came here to get away from
Don’t even hear a murmur of a prayer
It’s not dark yet, but it’s getting there

| I haven't visited in a while, gyaban, but I see definite improvements in your technique. Your attention to detail in the lighting, shadows and blending here is something I don't think I would have seen a few years ago. It looks great! |

First of all congratulations on the blue ribbon.
I feel honoured that you share these amazing creations with us. I know you must spend a great deal of time in planning and execution of these superb images so thank you for putting this effort to entertain our eyes and our minds. I hope you go down in history as a famous French artist - you sure deserve to. |

Congratulations on the well deserved blue
There is still someone who gave you a 1, how rude and unfair.

| Very disturbing image Christophe~ Looking forward to reading the notes. I'm trying to work out what a jug of water and sink-hole drains embedded in one's forehead are picturing, I'm sure with your wild imagination you will come up with something that either makes sense to you, and no one else. |

| Sometimes I think you're an alien. Where the hell you find all that inspiration to each time come with such a great concept. A 9 from me. |

| One individual who opened himself up for nourishment. I'm sure there is more here than my eye can unscramble right now. |
