Mists of Avalon
I have a fascination with the Arthurian Legends and have read just about anything I can get my hands on relating to Arthur and Guinevere (I especially love her story!).
I recently found this mist shot in my archives and last night at some horrid hour this scene popped into my dreams. So here it is a scene straight out of my dreams…the Knight returns from the Mists of Avalon.

Indeed such a cool image …. Fantastic work!!!
Sara Lamond
Great image – but who’s the poor man who had to pose for you!?
Hope that’s not Steve – he’s been doing himself a lot of damage in the last few days – this one would really top it!

Craig Shadbolt
Bloody hell Sare. Remind me never to piss you off! Love this image though. Will have to pick your brain (ha, ha – no pun intended in the context of this picture) about how you did this….
Sarah Moore replied
LOL – nope don’t cross me I may just photoshop off ur head! Drop me a bubblemail and I will attempt to explain how I did it!
Moshe Cohen
Interesting and well done!
Have you read the book The Mists of Avalon by Marion Zimmer Bradley?
Sarah Moore replied
Thanks Moshe – I have read the whole series! I was thinking last night that I would change the title of my image to Mists of Avalon, it fits better!
Bill Fonseca
Ok, now you’re starting to spook me….lol. But seriously, excellent piece of work. It’s got the WOW factor.
Sarah Moore replied
It’s even more exciting that it worked out exactly how I envisaged it to!
Christopher E...
totally awesome image!! the shot itself would stand on it’s own, but adding the headless rider, wow, gives this that medevil feel to it, beautiful job
Claire Farley

I’ll never see that paddock in the same way again!!! As usual you have gone outside the box and come up with a winner – well done Sare.
Tim Harper
Awesome work here!!
Steven de Siow
This is awesome. The misty effect, especially the tree is very effective. Well done.
Geoff Coleman...
...um hasn’t he forgotten something or is this the Green Knight??
Seriously this is a beautiful image Sarah – that misty background is perfect for him – very haunting and definitely dream-like. How clever to bring your dream to life.
I share your love for the Arthurian legend – I’ve even got an Arthurian tarot deck as I love tarot reading as well. It has endlessly fascinating themes running through it – love, loyalty, hubris, the need for visionary quests but the havoc they can wreak, sovereignty, the wounded land.
