[ Yes, I'm waiting for the airport shuttle and trying to think up useless things to do in the interim! :-) ] I also notice that it's kind of hard to orient the footprint and the location the daemon is obviously standing in to create the shadow (though the shadow from the ladder is pretty acute and the daemon's shadow less so, so it's still a little hard). To get a sense of "action" from this image it might be better to skew the footprint a little so that it's plain that the daemon was walking towards the location he's now standing in. I know it seems a small detail, but the viewers eye takes notice of these small details and it all either adds up to a feeling of "reality" about the picture or it doesn't. The picture, as clearly and expertly drawn as it is, somehow doesn't give me that exact feeling. Jordan
