Beauty, behind a shroud of mist, will reveal itself for those patient enough and 
willing to see.

    Beautiful picture and mood. I suppose that it is the full moon that we see through the branches.

    Simple but lovely. The limited colors and near-silhouette of the trees add grace to the romantic moon.

    A wolf roaring in the moon in this photo is missing only. What an atmosphere!
    Have a nice day.

    what a wonderful collection of photos you posted while i was gone ...
    it's hard to say which i like best, but i think it would be the blue door and that 'romantic' street in charleston!
    thanks for the 'welcome back' - skiing was fun, as always, but it's good to be back home again, too ...

    I can almost hear the hounds baying in the night. I love this one for the simplicity of its concept and composition.
