I'm really into goth rock and new wave. My favorite band is The Birthday Massacre. The guy in my avatar is, in fact, a guy. His name is Mana from the band Malice Mizer.
Neat image. I like the wa the mountains in the background look like they're covered in wool. Did you get this while a cloud was partially obscuring the sun? It looks like the background light is pretty different from the foreground light. Great job.
thanks for the comments :) I'm glad this photograph is getting so much attention!
By the by...the mountain at the center of the photograph is Mt. LeConte (I'm not sure about the spelling). It's just beyond the town of Gatlinburg and about an hour from Knoxville.
I hold it true that thoughts are things; They're endowed with bodies, breath and wings:
And that we send them forth to fill the world with good results, or ill.
That which we call our secret thought speeds forth to earth's remotest spot, leaving it's blessings or it's woes like tracks behind it as it goes.
We build our future, thought by thought for good or for ill, yet know it not.
Yet so the universe was wrought .
Thought is another name for fate.
Choose then thy destiny and wait, for Love brings Love and Hate brings Hate. - Henry Van Dyke.
Wonderful detail and clarity in this image. A real plus for me on that aspect. You have succeeded very well in capturing an 'atmosphere' and 'feel' in this one. Really nice.
Almost two different worlds, between the foreground and the background. I like the contrast in the imaging. The play in the light in the background is intriguing and quite beautiful.
For me this one is all about the ambiance of the setting, and you did it justice.
