With a savage leap, amplified by a downstroke of his wings, he landed in the midst of the frenzied herd. He let out a deep­throated roar, and the small herd of sheep bolted from their corner. Most of the wooly beasts swerved to plunge back towards the other side of the field. The white dragon leapt again and cut across the path of the beasts, bellowing a second time. The twenty or so animals wheeled in a confusion of dust and churnning hooves and headed in the opposite direction. For a fleeting moment, Balloch could hear the splintering and thrashing of their frantic passage beneath him...

It's the white dragon Balloch, a character from a story I'm writing when I have some free time on my hands. His design is based on the D&D white dragons. He stole the Imperial State Crown from the Tower in London and now wears it around his neck on a chain, earning him the nickname "Crownsnatcher". Done in CS3, wanted to experiment a bit with different filters to change the mood of the image.
