This week's Our Midweek Muse theme was "Picture A Poem".

I created this using GIMP 2.10.38.

The vintage images are from an Internet search. (See the side of my blog for links.)

The Eagle by Lord Alfred Tennyson

He clasps the crag with crooked hands;
Close to the sun in lonely lands,
Ring'd with the azure world, he stands.

The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls;
He watches from his mountain walls,
And like a thunderbolt he falls.

This week’s Collage Obsession challenge was “Sun.” I used a sun bird, sundial, and a sunset background.

The vintage images are from an Internet search. The font is FranciscoLucas Llana. The words are from a poem by Lord Alfred Tennyson.

This is also my first creation using GIMP 2.8.0-RC1 which is still a beta version. The official release should be coming out soon though. I still need to use version 2.6.12 to export TIF files because there's a bug with the beta version.
