A note...
Going to switch it up a little here for those of you following my photoblog on Tumblr. I had been working in series of subjects and that will continue. But we’ll return to trees for a moment, and again in the future when I meet other magnificent tree beings. Water series will be interspersed too. A new series of flowers and plants is starting. May revisit creature series too with what I already have, and definitely return to it if I visit any wild places. And so it snaps!
To lovers of the wild, these mountains are not a hundred miles away. Their spiritual power and the goodness of the sky make them near, as a circle of friends… You cannot feel yourself out of doors; plain, sky, and mountains ray beauty which you feel. You bathe in these spirit-beams, turning round and round, as if warming at a camp-fire. Presently you lose consciousness of your own separate existence: you blend with the landscape, and become part and parcel of nature.
