NEW: Prints now available!
This is a view of the countryside in Braives, Belgium. I took the photo
and drew the sketch. (I wanted to make a very minimalist composition
on the paper to match with the simplicity of the landscape).
See the whole "Pencil Vs Camera" album
Update: See THIS VIDEO showing some 18 Pencil Vs Camera
images in progress (with a small animation and original music).

In the Countryside
A poem by Peter S. Quinn
I was in the countryside
With my pencil and eye,
The clouds above did glide
Through the morning sky
Every wish was dream true
As the breeze was swaying:
Spring grass of the new
In the moments playing
My spirit felt its love
As new thoughts were waking!
Like a cloud here far above
Swiftly flights soaring taking

I love your little sketch! Are those imprints in in the grass real? 'cause they actually seem to end somewhere behind the drawing.

This whole concept is very cool. You seem to be a well traveled person as well. The eye thing with the cat hurts my eye though for some reason. I like

I love the simplicity of this picture. I myself live on a farm and I think your representation is right on the money. When the farmer is out there in his field the rest of the world just drifts away. Nothing else matters but the farmer and the land.

I really like the simplicity in this picture, and the solid green and blue. And of course, the whole idea of putting a torn-out sketch over a photo like this is simply awesome.

Cool concept! The way this's handled reminds me a bit of the "linking past & present" project. If you haven't seen it, you might find it interesting: [link]
