Based on the legend written by T.H. White in which Arthur brings Excalibur to his nervous step-brother Sir Kay because he has forgotten to bring his sword to the tournament. Sir Ector also stands by.

For the Fairy Tale category of CCCVIII. There is also a full Full Gallery.

This is pretty sweet man, but as much as I love the tree - putting it in the foreground distracts me a little from the great scene going on behind it!

I'd have to agree with Karrde here. Perhaps if you had the tree grow a bit more verticle it wouldn't cover part of the scene. The rest is great, the figures look right for the scene.

Well it just seemed to 'pleh' in the background. I wanted to draw attention to it. I tried photographing it from different angles so the tree wasn't so much 'in the way', but the tent didn't look right from other angles.

I think your tree is awesome. And as already noted you did a great job with faces for this particular scene.
