This does NOT belong to the public domain, so, please, ask me before using it anywhere... I don't ask much: just a link to my website, Aenemya.com, and my name displayed.

Unfortunately I have to add this ugly watermark and to add grain so that the unbearable rippers who keep on using my stuff without asking me nor crediting me (does it take that much time?!).
I'm bored of it, and I must admit that I have begun to keep my pictures for myself, not submitting them because of ripping off. So it is.
So *please* don't tell me "it's a pity there's this giant watermark, moreover the quality of this image isn't very good", for I know it, it was made on purpose.

I am very sad to have to do that on my images... It really hurts. But it hurts less than seeing my work violated. :(

Whenever I make a print of it, of course the print will look perfect, without any watermark nor grain! [as all my prints]


---------------------------------------- ----------------------------------

I have created a lot since I last submitted something here on deviantART, but I felt like keeping my pictures secret. I have also worked on an important commissioned CD artwork, and it took me a lot of time. I created "Dissolve les comètes" while listening Noir Desir, a french rock band, which I truly adore. The title comes from one of their songs, "Septembre, en attendant". It is a very lonely song and one of my favourite from the band. In this picture I wanted to express my actual feelings towards... many things. I often feel alone, not that I am a shy person, not at all, but just because I know that what's flying into my head belongs to me and to no one else. It is a kind of portrait of my mental intimity. A universe left upside down, with no sun but a guiding moon haunting each long second. I don't really know whether I am sad or just a dreamer. Maybe both. I like how it went out: I almost believe I made a real painting. In fact it's pure photo manipulation, using a lot of digital painting and personal brushes. About ~8 hours of work.

Superbe, et le titre est très beau aussi. Tu a l'air d'aimer le violet ;) Moi aussi je trouve ca très beau, surtout quand il est dosé à merveille comme je trouve que c'est le cas ici. Et le bâtiment qui semble s'enfoncer dans les ténèbre, ruine presque intacte, s'allie parfaitement avec le reste et ajoute une petite touche qui enrichi ce magnifique trésor. Bravo
