courage

"On the day that we met
I awoke from a total sleep
You said
Keep your eyes open wide
And keep your arms open wide
You brought me courage
You bring me courage
To keep my eyes open wide
And keep my arms open wide
You brought me courage"

I`ve set for about 5 min. in front of this image and felt nothing but calm. At some point I fell into the dark of the pine tree but then escaped and was free.

Those trees are so human, and the middle one seem to have so much difficulty to find the courage to open wide, arms and heart and eyes. Too much snow, maybe, but the winter lasts one season only hopefully... Love the white smoothy foreground too*

an image for film fantastic, difficult to understand .. .. a contrast between the sweetness and violence, a kind of battle to survive in the winter ..

Beautiful words... Great editing and composition. Again you have managed to show two sides of the picture, dreamy as well as unique. (you are never afraid to take a step beyond and I truly admire that)

Interesting image, gave me a double exposure feel (slightly offset)... looks very quiet and a place to walk around and admire natures beauty. Nice capture.
