Art: Lady Godiva: The balance of Power by Artist Alma Lee
Lady Godiva took her 
clothes off and made a stand
Far from myth or fantasy
she lived on cue not Command
it is unfair she came to say
the taxes too high
too much labor, not enough pay
Such as it was, now will ever be
her husbands ultimatum, 
did what she did for all to see
Lady Godiva high on a horse
Rode naked through the city
on her chartered course

I always thought that Lady Godiva was a myth, an intriguing answer to what if, but as it turns out it is all true and more. An Anglo Saxton noblewomen she was married to a King in the 1100 century.  She pleaded with him concerning the brutal tax schedule that was ruining his subjects live. He said,"I will lower the taxes when you decided to ride through the town on a horse naked.  Without further a do she held up her end of the bargain, and one has to hope he was honest enough to do the same.  She is still revered today for various charitable works.

Lady Godiva:the Balamce of Power was created in Poser 10 (model placement and development), CS6 (the over all illustration) ArtMatic 5 (generation and incorporation of the fracals) and utilizing onONe for the finishing touches and effects.
