Here is a DD i suggested
This human figure enveloped by this surrounding dark matter creates a captivating visual that depicts the concept of birth unmistakably. Suggester's words: "When I go through my favourites this always jumps at me. It is so quiet and beautiful. It is like a painting. I was very surprised the first time I saw it when I found that it was digital art."

Olof Erla

Hello dear friends

Just to let you all know Im still here.....Just very busy girl living in Iceland.

Good news.... I was in a magazine here in Iceland last month five page interview......wow how surprised I was to see five pages of me. I tought it would be one or two pages. Ill put the article in scraps tomorrow if you like to see. (it is in Icelandtic...but you can see it anyway )

And then I was on TV.....That was so strange...a tv-crew came to my house for a visit. I was interviewed and asked about my home and about me and about my pictures. Here is the link.


[link]

The interview starts on minute 11.33. It is in Icelandtic but I thought you all maby would like to see me for real and my home and many of you amazing stockartist that I have had the luck to work with!!

After all this I have been more busy than I could imegen and Im working on a HUGE campaign with one of the biggest ad-agencys here in Iceland. Soon the ads will be published and I will defenetly upload the work here on DA!!

So Alot of love from me

The world is changing. Hard times ahead. Time to take better care of each other. Hug our family and friends and be strong.

We sure feel it here in Iceland. Past weeks have been hard. Hearing bad things about my beautiful country that Im so proud of. Im so proud to be icelantic, but now it seems few people that were so greedy have almost destroyed all the work we have done building this good reputation we have.

If you dont understand what Im talking about it is this financial crisis that is now coming up all over the world.

But life goes on and I hope soon all will be fixed and then we have a white page to draw a new and better picture.

So Im featuring photos from my collection of Photography I like.
And I am featuring the pictures that feel soft and white.

ENJOY
