Macro photograph taken from a palm tree trunk!
My passion is macro photography. I love to find art in the bark of trees and in rocks. Sometimes I find miniature landscapes or seascapes hidden there.

Ghostrider belongs to the following groups:

This looks like a very important gathering; reminding me of The Ten Holy Women whose biographies are presented in a wide variety of Byzantine female saints: nuns who disguised themselves in male monastic garb; a repentant harlot who withdrew to the desert for forty-seven years of self-imposed isolation; a nun who escaped from Arab captivity to spend thirty-five years as a hermit on the abandoned island of Paros; a wonder working abbess who slew a dragon; widows who found refuge in the ascetic life of the convent; married laywomen and a queen abused by their husbands. The careers of these holy women demonstrate some of the divergent paths to sanctification in Byzantium, through mortification of the body, unquestioning obedience to a monastic superior, repentance, acts of charity, prophecy and miracle-working. At the same time the texts of their Lives reveal the Byzantine ambivalence towards women, reflecting the paradox of a civilization that simultaneously denigrated women as daughters of Eve and elevated Mary as the Mother of God and the instrument of man’s salvation….All this because I stopped to visit! Fantastic Kathie! Fantastic!Sx
