at the moment i'm trying to improve my skills at wireless flashing. but it's frustrating. Sometimes I can't escape the feeling that the whole thing is kidding me...

So, the last time when i was annoyed, i took (and edited) this photo.

It's my very first attempt with such an "heavy" edit (e.g. Texture at Background an Person,...)
But i hope you like it.
constructive criticism and tips for texture-work are welcome! ;-)
