This picture is a window into another world – the magical world of imagination. This woodland is where faeries live and look after travellers passing through. I mustn’t tell you where it is, it is a secret and only a few are privileged to know. When the sunlight falls in dapples through the leaves then it is said that the magic is so tangible that strange things happen. In times past an elfin girl has been seen walking these woods with her staff looking for the lost and lonely. If you can see her then you must ask yourself – are you lost and lonely?
Several photographs were merged and manipulated in Photoshop CS2 to create this fantasy landscape. And one cried to another and said: “ Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts; / The whole earth is full of His glory!” ~Isaiah 6:3

I have been here and seen the coming of man to my rivers. In my shadows have walked wildlife that no longer walk here. From my lofty peaks you can see for many miles. Once I stood higher than the far western mountains. I may have shifted and changed but I remain. My rivers are cold and my forest cool. From my bowels man has both feed himself and built his shelters. He has raped my slopes for my wood. Fought wars within me. I still survive. Mist still shroud my valleys. Flowers still shine their beauty for all to see. Come walk my paths an fish my streams. Stand on my peaks and walk my valleys. Loose yourself within yourself as your cares fade away when your with me. I am the Great Smoky Mountains, the Great Iron Mountains, Far Blue Mountains, the Sha-cona-ga. Most just call me the Smokies, and I remain. And a quote from John Muir “The mountains, are fountains, not only of rivers and fertile soil, but of men
Ok so this was an experiment. I have never attempted anything quite like this before! The aim was to create a fairy like creature. I used the liquify tool, smoothing, I created her leafy hat from scratch and painted in her hair. There were over 150 layers by the end! Honest opinions/suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Here is the original image to compare… Model (c) Sarah Moore 2008

My submission for the letter F* in Alphabet Soup Group. Plymbridge Woods and the River Plym: In the Plym Valley:* These falls are simply stunning and when the river is in full flood they are spectacular. Most times though they just trickle over the edge. In the summer months many children, families and youth flock to the river to swim and play in the shallows. A wonderful place for adventure, Tarzan-swings out over the river and picnics on the river-bank. I like the green of the undergrowth and the wild-wood feeling of this great place. / / Captured with a Nikon D40x and 18-55mm Kit Lense.
2nd January 2009 – what a stunningly beautiful day! We’d had the heaviest snowfall that London has seen in the past 18 years or so. All public transport was a total shambles and the city of London came to a grinding halt as folk could not get to into the city / to the office. Instead, people headed outdoors to enjoy the splendour of the day!! What a delight! Canon EOS 450D 18-55mm kit lens
Long tailed tit The long-tailed tit is easily recognisable with its distinctive colouring, a tail that is bigger than its body, and undulating flight. Gregarious and noisy residents, long-tailed tits are most usually noticed in small, excitable flocks of about 20 birds. Like most tits, they rove the woods and hedgerows, but are also seen on heaths and commons with suitable bushes. / Where to see them Found across the UK escept for the far north and west of Scotland. They can be seen in woodland, farmland hedgerows, scrubland, parkland and gardens. In winter they form flocks with other tit species. / When to see them All year round / What they eat Insects, occasionally seeds in autumn and winter
This is one of the many small winding back roads close to my home here in Leitchfield Kentucky. I love traveling these roads that appear to be going no where only to have them lead me to some magical place that I never knew was there before today, and it has been close buy all the time.
