Someone might be a tad bit jaded. :D "Adults would literally fight each other to *force* anyone not thinking the same way to do so." There are many people of each religion who would not go to war to get what they want, I'm positive.

Even before I heard your narative, I'd voted this lower than your usual wonderful images. This one didn't "ring" with me. It seemed a little bit too "forced", I think.

Still, congratulations on your ribbon!

Amazing that you can come up with the idea and carry out all the construction/arrangement etc. in the time you have for a challenge! I'm always so impressed by this fact as well as your brilliant end results. 'Grats on the red.

I'm always amazed by the level of detail you put into your work. A lot of depth to this one. I love the flags in the distant background.

My gosh, what a lot of work :-) I find it odd to see a "Buddhist" in armor being warlike (upper left), but what do I know?

Fantastic work - I never tire of exploring your work or reading your notes - not just those on the actual creation of the scene and eventual image, but also those about your inspiration source and thought processes. Thanks to you and your wife for continuing to amaze, intrigue, move, delight, mystify, fascinate, captivate, etc. us (pick the adjective depending on the work). Congratulations on the red.

Christophe, I always love reading your notes and following the thought processes that result in great images like this. Can't believe your wife still has the time and energy to help out so much, good for her! :-)

Oh yes and congrats on the red :-)
