Artist's Comments

We are the Earth
We are the Moon
Come rising Sun
Lead us from the tomb

The frozen Earth,
The pale, cold Moon:
Come, Solstice Sun.
(We are reborn)

This longest night,
This darkest hour.
Come bring the dawn.
(We wait for you)

Winter Solstice Sunrise - Arianna Lightningstorm

that his shadow would go out and kill while he slept...
And not return until he next awoke."

Nicely done again :)

The Icy plain surrounding the stones is nice and bleak, the mist effect is very well imlemented and sets it off. It makes the picture look as cold as it would be, and you know by looking that even with the sun peeking through the distant cloud, it's a scant mercy against the bitterness of the winter.

Cloud choice was also well made. They are sparse and fragmented above the circle, as clouds tend to be on the coldest of days, and the distant dark and possibly snow laden clouds breaking open as if to let the slim rays of the sun through catch one of the meanings of the ritual well.
The winter is at its height on this day, from here spring can only draw closer and the winter diminish.

Well done :)
