It's time to sink or swim.
Now stand back and watch me drown.

Daily Deviation

Given 2008-09-19

At first sight, to feature 'Sink or Swim' by ~Paso with a Daily Deviation may seem to be a bit risky, but give it a second look. I really feel the emotion in this, the total and utter desperation. The simple background means that you can't help but focus on the character. You might think they're simple too, at first, but you'll realist that a huge amount of time will actually have been put into this. The detail and work put into the teeth and that hand, trying to get a firm purchase on live, is just inspiring. If slightly chilling! (Suggested by =Pixel-Spotlight and Featured by `skifi)

it's so great.. I feel just like I was standing near water and couldn't move to help or even shout "You can do it!"... Amazing...

The mood in this piece is really thought out and conveyed really well. Your work with emotion is really well done, especially the expression on the lionesses face. Great work:clap:

And I believe this may call for a proper introduction, and well
Don't you see, I'm the narrator, and this is just the prologue?

Congratulations on the DD! :D

You captured the emotion here very well. The minimalistic style of the background just adds to it I think. A really great picture!
