I bought a copy of this to use as a website background - do you want me to credit you as Anne Wipf or is there a different name I could use?

Hi, I just wanted to let you know that this image is being used here:

I have no idea if that's been granted permission or the image was purchased or anything, but I thought I would let you know anyway, just in case

This banner comes for the oldest version of this picture, published on dA without its signature and, alas, often stolen. Seing the bad quality of this banner, it has probably been picked somewhere on the web. I reported it to its user, and I hope he will credit me. If not, there is nothing what I can do alas.
You know what? I'm a bit tired to run behind the thieves of my pictures...
Thank you again.

You're welcome
I thought that may be the case. It's such a shame when people do that, they forget all the hard work that goes into making such art. Hopefully in this instance it might be resolved!

Your newer picture brought me here. I see in this one there's lots of lights and a brightly painted carousel, and a really white live horse. The other one was a darker setting (like, moonlight dark) and its live horse had a snowy gray color. Both versions are great!
Very beautiful, thank you! Just a small criticism: in my opinion, the impact would have been better if there were only (or a majority of) swans in the carousel, but I know that it is not easy to do. Amazing work. 
Thank you, I noticed that too but I'm limited in my time to do this "fun" work. I was told by someone else it was a little hard to understand, that is probably why.
Click on the "buy this print" button (right side of the picture), you'll see all the prints (with my signature and only my signature, smaller and without the copyright and link). If you want a dedicace manually written on the picture, it will be more difficult, because of the high cost of transportation (you are in the states, I'm in Europ). Thank you.

The name really does suit this piece so well(O: I really love the idea of the horses taking their freedom...
I gave you (4) for vision because it’s clear to me that you really thought this through and got my attention.
Originality got a wonderful (4 and a half) it is not something i have seen done on DA before.
Sadly I gave you a (3) for Technique: the front horse seems to be too blurred and it still looks a bit cut out. I must say you did well with the lighting and the effect it creates is great. Also wonderful use of stock
Impact (5) really stunning idea and would love to see more of your work in the future.

Calliopes are one of my favourite things, and this brings the dream I've had in my head since I was a child right out in front of my eyes. Lovely execution.
I'd like to see more of the carousel patterning on the second horse as it fades between the first and the last. The last horse looks like it is on another plane of existence, so that technique there could have been executed a bit better, in my opinion.
That said, they are nitpicks and the image is still magical and lovely. Thank you for sharing this. Keep on creating! <3
