Just a pic I made about 3 months ago & thought I'd share.  The people are
Poser models, of course.  The newspaper ads are some of my older pics.

Sorry about the size, I originally made it for use as wallpaper.

Interesting!

Has a very high detail level. Does have a weird / unreal / surrealistic
streak though. Actually quite appealing. Appears to me to be inside
somewhere, despite the blimp?

Wow, this image is fantastic!!
It a bit Big Brotherish, an extraordinary and funny look at society... 
damn shame about the alleged artist!

Wave,
Edwin

Love the telescope.  It seems to be an unwritten rule of ad copy:

   "All Newtonian telescopes advertized to the general public shall
   be installed upside-down, because it looks more believable to the
   potential customers."

Most people don't know what a Newtonian telescope is supposed to look like.
At least one owner of a Dobsonian-mounted Newt had neighbors call the
police on him, because they thought it was a weapon!

But your upside-down refractor is a stroke of genius.  I actually wouldn't
be surprised to see one in a print ad one of these days.  After all, in
this day of sci-tech silliness, a scientist can say, "There used to be pack
ice on Mars," and the press reports it as, "THERE IS EVIDENCE OF LIFE ON
MARS!"

I like. It's a "busy" image.

I also like...
Re-used image in paper - pity about the artist.
Bloke doing a "runner" over the wall.
The adverts.
Etc

Shouldn't the TV show the pigs advert? Or maybe the camera is too low?

Looking forward to your next masterpiece.

Alf

I love the CC camera and video feedback on the monitor.
The center blimp has a typ-o (is that intentional?)

I do like. It's my wallpaper now too! (for now at least ;-)

I'm just trying to figure out why the knight has an Uzi instead of some 
sort of vehicle.
