just on the border of your waking mind
there lies another time
where darkness and light are one
as you tread the halls of sanity
you feel so glad to be unable to go beyond
I have a message from another time

Oh shit yeah!! That's nice mate, tack sharp and nice and bright :nod: not sure, I think I might have cropped it in a little tighter - portrait instead of landscape but then it may have sort of lost some of its appeal. Did you spend a while deciding whether to crop or not?

cheers,

Mark

Don't let your mind wander. It's much too small to be out on it's own.
