Very nice! This immediately caught my eye on the Recents page. As jinx previously stated, the texture and lighting are well done. Snape looks so sad! You can feel his sorrow. Wonderful job all around! =)
The tears I cry by @frodobolson72 (Artemis)
Seems like just yesterday You were a part of me I used to stand so tall I used to be so strong Your arms around me tight Everything, it felt so right Unbreakable, like nothin' could go wrong Now I can't breathe No, I can't sleep I'm barely hanging on
Here I am, once again I'm torn into pieces Can't deny it, can't pretend Just thought you were the one Broken up, deep inside But you won't get to see the tears I cry Behind these hazel eyes
I told you everything Opened up and let you in You made me feel alright For once in my life Now all that's left of me Is what I pretend to be So together, but so broken up inside 'Cause I can't breathe No, I can't sleep I'm barely hangin' on
Here I am, once again I'm torn into pieces Can't deny it, can't pretend Just thought you were the one Broken up, deep inside But you won't get to see the tears I cry Behind these hazel eyes
Swallow me then spit me out For hating you, I blame myself Seeing you it kills me now No, I don't cry on the outside Anymore...
This Kelly Clarkson's song made me think about the possible relationship between teenager Snape and Lily(my favourite theory,hehe ).Even if Snape doesn't have hazel eyes. But I think the whole song captures quite well what'd be Snape's feelings when Lily left him to be engaged with James.Poor Severus...!

This image is beautiful definitely caught my attention too when I first saw it. The background is stunning and I love the hair highlights as well as the creases on the trousers the best.
Not to mention the detailed background and the beautiful light and the well drawn shadows. Although it isn't much of a problem for this picture because it looks so beautiful, it seems to me that the persona nd the flowers should really be smaller, in proportion to the background, as we know that most of the old catholic churches, or ones with such settings tend to be relatively tall and large/grande? I usually see those poles as bigger than human size where we couldn't wrap our arms around etc.
But I'm not sure, maybe it's just me with my limited knowledge of such places.
Nevertheless this is AMAZING and BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!! LOVE IT!

Hi Mochi! First of all thanks so much for your extremely nice comments. I appreciate them a lot!
You're right in some way with the size of the colums.On catholic cathedrals(I'm Spanish, and Spain is plenty of them) colums are huge, and so the space within, because the ceiling is very very high(specially on gothic churches). However, on this pic I didn't wanted the place to be a cathedral or a church but some ruined and isolated place on Hogwarts.That's why I made the human figure bigger and the proportions of the place seem smaller.
I love the background. The texturing and lighting really stand out. The figure's done very well, too, you've conveyed a lot of emotion in that pose and the scattered flowers at his feet. Very nice picture.
