what fantastic words and this image is amazing. I especially like… ” familiar whispers shaped like roots.” What an image that brings to mind. this photo is so spooky and full of stories. it’s a whole fantasy world and not one I really want to go into. something deadly and sinister. so real and yet so unreal. great job, Butch

You really are bridging the gap between this world and another with these images my friend! And you have the words to fit them so perfectly… I don’t feel it’s a ‘world I would not want to go into…’ I feel a certain almost fascination for it… and in a way am almost drawn into it…
Wonderful wonderful work my friend – congratulations :)))
