Ahhhh, Gigi, I always anticipate nothing less than this sort of image from you, and once again you have delivered great vision, technique, skill and quality.

Great use of colours. Depth of field is nice – I love the out-of -focus tree at the front right. Great exposure between dark and very bright areas.

Tony Ryan, 4 months ago

Interesting creation and words. Personally I do not want to wait for a door at the end of my life. This is what I believe the creative inspirations group is about. ie; Working out what we desire for life in our hearts and taking the necessary steps to make it happen.I think our conditioning from religion to school to parents and media has made us believe we need to struggle for any joy. Then that the joy will be taken away anyway.I truly believe that if we connected to our own hearts that we would be directed to peace and joy right now without all the struggle and it would be eternal.

micmac in reply to Tony Ryan’s comment, 4 months ago

We use many words to describe our feelings ,a door is an archetype like any other one ,just a metaphore to say that I already have my paradise here and now just walking in the woods.I call that my little miracles,«just a word» of the day …Thanks Tony

Aritheeagle, 3 months ago

Thanks for this.

The fact that I can appreciate the grand concept and visualize the supposed Golden Gate tells me I am already there in mind and spirit.

There does come a time when we suddenly start noticing the heavy equipment and luggage that has been bearing down on our backs and our head…... not allowing us to look too far…. not allowing us to touch the face of calm.

You made that experience of calm possible through this.

Thanks

micmac, 3 months ago

That’s the reason I’m less with people and more walking in the woods with my dog,thanks for that beautiful comment.

Dawne Olson, 3 months ago

I feel like I am only echoing the feelings of so many others who’ve already posted here… but this image is incredible. One simply looks at it and feels “transported” away from all those things you described —(even if I hadn’t read your description, the image accomplishes just that!)

micmac in reply to Dawne Olson’s comment, 3 months ago

Thank you so much Dawne for that beautiful compliment …x
