Title: Manifestations of the Spirit
Post by: mseawell on January 25, 2017, 10:05:08 pm

What is the land? Photographers think of things such as mountains, trees, clouds and they are correct but I would argue there is so much more. Beyond the physical, something invisible to the eyes but not the heart. There is an element the binds these moments of beauty into a larger being, it is sensed rather then seen, felt to our very core, a faith, if you will, that we are really in the presence of something far greater, as grand as a mountain, as deep as the sea...Manifestations of the Spirit.

Putting all your words to one side I bet that image looks wonderful printed as large as you can. I'm no good at landscapes but I hope I can recognise quality when I see it.
