Forest Realm

Tree on an Island, Crabtree Falls, Blue Ridge Parkway, North Carolina

Wood sprites and dryads,
Satyrs and water nymphs,
Fauns and elves,
Oberon and Puck...
a vision such as this conjures an imaginary realm of faeries
 who frolic among forest and falls.

  12. Great color, nice motion, and you have achieved an almost 3-D separation of the tree and water.
