Nightmare

"So how do you... how do you like it?
What kind of dream would you call it -
To have one foot in Eden,
One foot in Hell
To be always numb,
Plagued by demons
Summoned by angels at the same time,
Endlessly"

La photo est superbe ,surtout le dégradé de couleurs du bas en haut .Des gargouilles sur un ciel tourmenté ? J'y vois de gros phoques au bord de l'eau et on échappe au cauchemar et à l'enfer ...!!??

@Marie-Hélène Ammor: C'est une bien jolie façon de voir les choses Marie-Hélène ! :-)

Florence, this is really spectacular. At first glance I thought is was 3 figures with their backs to the camera. Amazing!

La magie assez terrifiante de ces gargouilles-là, j'adore - cadrées ainsi, encore plus énigmatiques...

Mysterious picture, like a abstract sculpture.

A scary shot, the nightmare certainly looms over this. On another note, the Waterboys were a cool band.
4 Feb 2009 5:06pm
@Richard_Irwin: Yes, I like the Waterboys, really cool, as you've mentionned. I've have had the opportunity to see them on stage (first part of a Simple Minds tour)... GREAT !

"So how do you... how do you like it?
What kind of dream would you call it -
To have one foot in Eden,
One foot in Hell............"
Well, the poor "dog" kept asking himself that question and couldn't made up his mind...'till finally froze in between heaven and hell and turned into stone....
(the middle one looks just like a boxer staring at the water or cloud...)

@Ti: A nice story indeed... could have been this or something else... but it's true... it's like he's looking left and then right, down and up... Thanks for this com ! ;-)
I really love this :
"'till finally froze in between heaven and hell and turned into stone...."
Bertrand Duhamel from Granby, Canada
Spécial en effet !!! Est-ce qu'elles sont placées ainsi ou bien si tu as ajouté celles de chaque côté ??
Moi j'aurais peur que ça porte malheur de manipuler ainsi des gargouilles ;o)))
4 Feb 2009 9:08pm
@Bertrand Duhamel: Il s'agit des ailes de la gargouille de chaque côté... et ça fait donc un bout de temps qu'elle se demande si elle doit s'envoler ou non... :-)
Gérard Méry from Saint-Cyr-sur-Loire, France
On dirait des morses en région Arctique , impressionnant !

That rock is very cool and once again you have a great sky to seal the deal.

Wonderful dramatic shot and the title is so apt, well spotted and captured

Great sky, and unusual POV. Difficult to get a handle on the size, makes it all the more intriguing.
5 Feb 2009 10:48am
@dang: Well this one must surely weights several tons...
