stepping onto a lakeshore beach
steeped in morning shade
dappled in morning light
song of pouring creek
spring bush laden with newborn buds
shinning
lit up
like a crystal chandelier
i felt as though i stepped into mystical magical realm

ReplyDeleteI see you had some rain! It is much easier to appreciate the beauty in the spring, isn't it? Don't you love the tinkly sound when the wind rattles the crystal limbs?

Mother Nature's chandeliers sparkle in the sun. We build from crystal.

Thanks for adding the Big picture to put the icy bush in perspective. I'd hoped it wasn't still that wintery even in Montana.
Oh my gish! I want one in my living room!!! Hahaha. Oh Tammie the photograph of the mountain is absolutely stunning. I just love how you see things. Okay I hope you like this:

ReplyDeleteHi Tammie, thank you for your kind wishes.
ReplyDeleteWouldn't it be great if we could be miniaturised like in the film Fantastic Voyage, and take a trip deep into the world of ice crystals.
Your pictures are stunning
Winter freezes time so we can ponder upon that which is timeless.
ReplyDeleteLove the red encapsulated in ice... love also these in-between times, happy spring!
ReplyDeleteAn incredible source of light, this chandelier. Thanks for yet another inspired post!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots, great blog.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful. I love how you capture the spirit of nature here. Thanks for visiting. One day I hope to improve my blog so I do appreciate when people stop by. Again I love your photography, it just captures the essence of Montana.
ReplyDeleteI am late to the party this time around, but that does not diminish my appreciation for your captures of this fleeting seasonal wonder. It reminds me of something that would inspire Tim Burton: a little eerie, yet whimsical and inviting, too. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely photos, Tammie. Have a Happy Easter. Mickie :)
ReplyDeleteonce again all I have to say is.......beautiful
ReplyDeletebeautiful and the title is so true :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!!! I can't get over all the ice and how it covers all the twigs. (see? Southern California girl here)

Oh my word! That is indeed the stuff of fairy tales! Happy Easter, Tammie! x
ReplyDeleteGuten Morgen Tammie,
ReplyDeletedas ist absolut wundervoll und die Vorstellung, es wäre ein Kronleuchter ist absolut bezaubernd und erinnert mich an Hans Christian Andersen Märchenwelt - es ist so schön, diese Gabe sich zu bewahren, diesen besonderen Blick für das Magische. Deine Bilder und deine Worte zeigen, wie gut du es kannst.
alles Liebe für dich
isabella
Love your spring in Montana -- we didn't get but a few days of ice and now all the spring is gone. We're already into early summer flowers.
