“Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us, or we find it not” Emerson
We all carry beauty within us. The question is: How will we share it with the world?
If you’d been with me here, in this magical kingdom of softly drifting fog, mist and sun and if you were listening carefully, you would have heard me whisper a profound “thank-you”. Thank you to the acorn & the earth, the sun & the rain and thank you to the one person who conceptualized this amazingly beautiful southern landscape.
It took only one person to envision hundreds of deciduous live oak trees growing to form an archway of abundantly intertwined, sphagnum-moss draped branches.
One person with one thought – create a beautiful country road.
One person to respond to an urge to manifest exquisiteness – not for themselves but for future generations – how ingenious, how inspired, how breath-taking!
May you discover your inner beauty and wholeheartedly share it with others – you never know how it’ll turn out!
Wishing you and yours a Happy Thanksgiving!
2014

Is this an actual (untouched) photograph? I ask because is has the appearance more of a painting.
