The sense of a human in a state of wonderful loneliness is enhanced by the mood and wonderful companionship of my mother Nature. Being lonely is a pure state of mind,it can send a mind into the depths of a powerful hell or it can release the soul to explore the vast reaches of our life in the most intimate detail.Perhaps the tear I shed at this moment is from the beauty I can not bear? Perhaps it is the result of not sharing this with another intrepid explorer?..Taken on the shores of Manzanita Lake in Lassen National Park,California,USA…Canon 7D with a SS of 1 sec and a f-22 at 29mm..Featured..The Silky Touch Group…The Landscapes of our World Group…Canon Only Group..
