They are gorgeous Tammie. I would love you to be here to photograph right now. We are draped in mist and droplets of water both early morning and late evening. I wonder what magic you would find.
Oh my word! That is so beautiful and magical! I rarely get to see anything like that ... most of the ice I see is only in my tea. Good but not magical ... nor beautiful!
Beautiful, Tammie!! And, I just have to say, for the record, that for some immense and important reason, seeing your beautiful face in a post or so ago, or was that on FB, I can SEE these differently... isn't that ODD? Well, like I have more of a frame/reference or some strange thing that just makes me KNOW you a little more. Anyway, I enjoyed that revelation!
Such beauty captured in dancing light those dainty "wings of ice" like fluttering creatures resting awhile on shimmering stems. You show us a world that makes us stop and hold our breath at the sheer loveliness of it all! Thank you!
TL - these extreme small and beautiful fragments can only ne found by someone with your very skilled and conscious vision.; and to capture such delicate crystal fragility - you are magic. Thank you so much for capturing and for sharing. My day is richer for it. B
Your winter Montana scenes are magical, Tammie. I need to forget about flyfishing one and visit in snow season. (Though once on July 4th I did get caught in a snowstorm in the Big Hole Valley...:)
Yes, it is exactly like stepping into a magical realm! Like the wardrobe in The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe - the first photo beckons you in and what you find there is a magical other-world!
Your photos mesmerize me. I am just starting to learn about macro photography, using a borrowed macro lens. I have new appreciation for the skill that it takes to make glorious works of art like yours.
Capturing the beauty of our natural world with photography is a great passion for me, as well as my business; Spirithelpers. You can find my webstore at: www.spirithelpers.net
It is my attempt to capture a spirit that uplifts and ignites the majesty in our hearts.

Please forgive me, but I no longer will be accepting blog awards, they are quite time consuming to honor. I also feel shy about passing them to folks that may not want to do them. Please accept my friendship and appreciation through our comments and emails. Thank you for visiting!

ReplyDeleteMagnificent work.
ReplyDeleteHOW AMAZING!! Unbelievable that you could capture these in such vivid detail.
ReplyDeleteFabulous Tammie, wouldn't it be amazing if you could magically turn these into bracelets and necklaces. I bet the alchemists have already tried.
