• Thanks for all the wonderful comments regarding “Reverie”. I’m glad most of you seem to enjoy it (as of this moment it is the new top ranked image in my gallery). I will try to get dual and triple screen versions up in a day or two.

  Today I think I will take it easy and relax (as much as one can with a three year old and a three month old in the house) because it’s my birthday. I was born 35 years ago today.

• Added “Reverie” to the Night Scenery gallery this evening. I hope you don’t mind two wallpapers in a row with silhouettes.

• I’ve added five new posters to my Zazzle collection and I will be adding more as the week goes on. “Serenade”, “The Grid”, “Cosmogony”, “The Overseer”, and “Cosmic Dawn” are available in the original “widescreen” aspect ratio. You can also check out my poster collection directly from this page via the little Flash widget that Zazzle has provided (scroll to the bottom of this page).

  If there is a poster you would like to see available, this is the week to request it.

• I’ve added an updated version of “Flight of the Hammerheads” this morning. Quite a few of you felt that the render I posted yesterday was too dark and commented that the silhouette view of the sharks lent them a 2D appearance. I’ve lightened things up ever so slightly so you can see the 3D contours on the sharks and a little more detail on the ocean floor. Yesterday’s version remains in the Pickle Jar. Which do you prefer? The image with the higher rating after a week will remain in the gallery.
• I added an RSS feed for the free gallery yesterday and created a page with widgets which allows you to add the feed to your favorite web based feed aggregator. Here is a version of the page for the members gallery feed. I would recommend that all members subscribe to the Members Gallery feed (rather than the Free Gallery feed) to stay up to date on the newest additions to the gallery and other news.
• Some of you have asked for an update on Jason. He’s three months old now and growing steadily. He get cuter every day (in my biased opinion). Here’s a pic.

• Added a reworked version of “Flight of the Hammerheads” to the gallery this morning. The original Bryce render from 1999 can be seen here. The original was always one of my favorites and I think it worth revisiting. I hope you like it!

  I posted this one in the “Day Scenery” gallery, but will move it to its own “Underwater” section if I create another marine image this year.
