I feel the safest, and happiest in the mountains whether they be in my beloved hills and home of East Tennessee, or the young strong first born granite vertebra, the backbone in the ring of fire of Alaska or South America. Mountains are like a big heavy mothers quilt they for me anyway, they are like an emotional security blanket that Linus made famous even Your photograph is a magnificent rendering of quite power and security. I hope to visit beautiful Norway, is your home there?
Wow to have light at 10 o'clock in the evening is simply mind blowing to me, In Australia, especially in summer the sun is usually down by 9:30, which is actually 8:30 because we have daylight savings time over summer. I love this composition, it has a bit of an eerie feeling to it, like something is coming but you cant see it because of the trees, excellent photographic work Annette.
aw the mistic power of the night this is so beautiful I can hear the night calls of the animals in this shot makes me feel as if I am there this is a super capture nice job.
Very beautiful! fresh air, nature, trees, mountain, silence which gives me peace of mind really, away from stress and pollution. Love to explore places like this.
So interesting and mysterious. The cloud shrouded mountains look more like a painting than a photograph. I love the silouette work...one of my favorite formats.
Artist Reply: Dear wonderful Sally!
Thanks so much for your comment and that you like it just as much as I do. it's the most wonderful place on earth! XXX
misty mountain range, not many photos actually capture the look of the mist without making the photo look bleached but you have done a wonderrful job composing this shot
Annette this type of image really hits the spot for me. I love the layers & the simplicity, not that its a simple image to create. I have something similar but not nearly this good. Fantastic work
