Genevieve's Lake

thanks Jon…. it’s a beautiful place… so dreamy and special…... I thought about rendering it in blue or some wild colour but in the end the image doesn’t need any thing tricky…..glad you like it…..:)

thanks Nikki….... the beauty is almost as much in the imaginative potential of the landscape as in the actual beauty of place…. this is a bit hard to explain….. but I’m glad you like it…..:)

Hi Steve….. yes the IR really mutes the almost overbearing beauty of the place…. makes it almost comprehensible for a mere human somehow…. thanks and I am pleased you like this photo….:)

Hi Steve… and thanks….. :)

thanks Helen….. in a funny way it’s the atmosphere that emanates from this little lake that makes it so special…. it’s almost tangible like it’s sitting on a ley line or something….it’s almost like a energetically charged vibration comes from the lake itself….hard to explain but it can put shivers up my spine just sitting there …...a very special place indeed….. I’ve photograhed it loads of times over the years but nothing I’ve shot comes even close to the magical mysterious feel of the place…... who knows maybe you’ll see it some day…..:)

actually this is a digital manipulation from a shot taken in the very next valley from Genevieve little lake and this kind of sum’s it up as well….. River Nymph

hi Roybarry…. and wow thanks… I hesitated to post this as it’s just not as magical as the real place…. but then I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to do it justice…... thanks for your lovely words you…...:)
