Description Ok, this is my first "finished" drawing ever, so please bare with me ...

I always admired people who are gifted at drawing, but never thought I had enough talent to do so myself... until I realized that, as in everything, it's not the talent that matters most but the pleasure of learning, creating and expressing yourself through that.

So here is my first serious shot at drawing, using one of strany's exceptional creations. If you haven't looked at this artist's gallery yet, please, do yourself a favor and remedy that right away! He's an extremely talented photographer, who brings a unique atmosphere and emotion to all his creations.

Here's the link to the original picture (sorry for the poor links, I'll change that wen I get used to the submission system):

Thanks strany!!!

I used something like 2H to 10B pencils, blending stumps, and A LOT of eraser!!!

I know I messed up the underwater part (put to much pressure, and I roughed up the paper while trying to erase ... rookie mistake I guess), but as I said, it's a first ...

Hope you like it!
