"A flock of sheep that leisurely pass by
One after one; the sound of rain, and bees
Murmuring; the fall of rivers, winds and seas,
Smooth fields, white sheets of water, and pure sky -
I've thought of all by turns, and still I lie
Sleepless..."

This just brought tears to my eyes. My grandmother was a poet. She would recite many poems as we were having a "sleepover" at her home. The one above was a favorite of hers. So beautiful.
Wonderful ...wonderful...image.

Beautiful verses to go with the beautiful image. I lije very much the foggy ambience, the b/w treatment and the suggestions and possible symbolisms of this lonely walking in the fogg.
Very good.

When you have insomnia, you're never really asleep and you're never really awake.
20 Feb 2009 6:23am
This is beautiful and I feel almost like I am entering a dream looking at this - I love this from every aspect - the composition and the processing are perfect - wonderful work.
20 Feb 2009 6:24am
You know what ? I think you're the queen for those atmospheres... Nice, very nice.

J'adore ce genre de photo... c'est une atmosphère qui va très bien au Noir et Blanc
20 Feb 2009 7:08am
Is it very early in the morning ? Love the foggy background and this Misty Miss quietly passing by (you are the best Misty, though :)

Perfect composition and wonderful mood...beautifully done.
20 Feb 2009 9:17am
la longue ligne de la route bordée d'arbreS, la solitude qui marche le long du quai... toute une atmosphère rendue par la brume.. et les teintes très douces de ce superbe N&b.
20 Feb 2009 9:40am
I don't know if it is the endless view or the lonely figure that i find the most moving. Fantastic work.
20 Feb 2009 9:49am
perfect title and mysterious scene. The fog and overall tones lends a certain mystique to this excellent composition 5 stars....
20 Feb 2009 11:07am
powerful solitude, dream-like quality, the figure sandwiched by the hand of man (bridge) and nature's trees...gentle light, flowing lines of rivers edge...what a scene...
20 Feb 2009 12:08pm
I know exactly where WW got the inspiration from for the words! Doesn't happen often, but when it does, it's a real problem. Lovely photo to go with the words.
20 Feb 2009 12:48pm
Man, this is so beautiful as a black and white; the light and atmospherics are lovely. Great shot.
20 Feb 2009 12:59pm
Beautiful title!...and great photo!! A photo that makes me sad ... ha loneliness...
20 Feb 2009 1:00pm
Marvelous photo. Perfect composition and the fog of course is a wonderful element.
20 Feb 2009 1:35pm
The title really makes the image. A completely different thought. The composition has a little yin and yang quality.
20 Feb 2009 1:52pm
Astonishingly moving and atmospheric. The stories are there in the scene, and the beauty of this mesmeric scene is immense. Perfection, Sharon, sweet perfection
20 Feb 2009 2:32pm

20 Feb 2009 3:28pm
What an incredibly beautiful capture! Insomnia? It probably won't bother me much, if I've got such a wonderland to wander around...
20 Feb 2009 3:59pm
What beautiful image. The fog swallows everything in that disturbing infinite. The human figure is the one that adds to calidez and harmony.
Greetings

What a sweet walk it must have been, an eerie moment were thoughts are flowing peacefully as the steps you make drive you peacefully along the curves...
A quiet and absorbed shot!
