Morning Mist by

Looking down into la barranca, (Gorge) on a misty morning in Zacatlan, Puebla Mexico.

I hadn’t noticed this path through the forest surrounding the gorge until two farmers ventured down it with machetes in hand. They would have made a great addition to this scene with their white cotton dress, leather sandals and gourd canteens, but they vanished like ghosts into the mist. On a clear day one can see the small patches of farmland they were heading for scattered along the floor of the gorge.

About Richard G Witham

My focus as a photographer and digital artist ranges from traditional photography to PhotoArt compilation and the less explored world of abstract design created with natural elements such as smoke, oil and water.

    Do I get lost?
    Am I perceiving the light withing the light?
    Would I rather fly away and drag the mist away with my wings?
    Rosa (that´s mystery, Richard…and a perfect muffled silence. Love the atmosphere and the invitation)

  • Yes, there is light within light, and the mystery draws me. I think it would be wise to bring a machete and a compass when venturing into the mist.

    Thank you Rosa for your beautiful words :-)
