My friend Rahul took this picture. He is a designer who does some excellent work, which you can see here:

I was inspired by this photo, so I decided to manipulate it in a style reminiscent of Rahul's. So, with the magical assistance of photoshop, here is the result.

Cover Design

A freelance job: Cover Design. In English, the title of the book is Holy Warrior. The specifications for this particular project were along the lines of "A man standing on the shore, looking across a lake at an ominous castle in the moonlight. Mysterious tone."

The Lock Smiths

I had access to a really sweet camera for a short period of time a few months ago and took some pictures on Granville Island. I took quite a few close up shots of random objects. Today I came across a picture of a lock that I'd taken that day and decided that there should be a couple of lumberjacks trying to break into it.
