Slowly I walk
and wander
to the edge of the unknown
where my vision is cloaked
and mystery abounds
where there is stillness
yet things move
where there is silence
but I can hear
where there is peace
and I feel at home
I breath . . .
I exhale . . .
I begin to feel a warm glow
as it chases the veil
revealing all
that the heart already knows
of beauty and goodness
of nature and life
. . . and I stand before Him in awe
-Kim
one foggy morning....one very foggy morning,
I went back to the house to get the camera after dropping off the kids,
one foggy morning....one very foggy morning,
and went to a park,
and it was dreamy and beautiful and still,
and you could see the fog literally floating by in little droplets and it was amazing!
This week for Photo Art Friday our challenge was an abstract starting out with Bonnie's free texture Dropped Petals as a background, plus any other pdpa texture, plus 1 or 2 other images .
{Dropped Petals-I started out with 2 layers as a background}
{My three images I used and another of Bonnie's textures Dusty Rose}
And this is what I ended up with . . .
You'll probably see some more fog photos in the future, I had to save some for a rainy day!
Wishing you all a fabulous weekend....
Love, Kim

A beautiful series, Kim, and I love your edit.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend!
such beautiful shots! I love the one of the little water drops on the strands of web! So beautiful!
Mystical and mysterious and gorgeously beautiful. Love that first one - with the sihouetted tree, the barely visible picnic tables and the glowing golden light. And your final combination image is stunning. The texture work, painterly quality and abstract feel are so very appealing.
Excellent! Beautiful! Amazing!...
Your words touched me deeply...Your photos are surreal, and I just love them. And that final image...your artwork...truly fantastic! How I hope you print it and hang it. Well done, Kim.
Your words and photography are so inspirational! Reinforces what I love about this hobby of mine. You really captured some incredible morning moments!
You are a great writer and have such a way with words. These images are stunning, a bit mysterious, eerie, and beautiful! Inspiring!
Beautiful world put into words.

the world veiled in fog...absolutely breathtaking! I love your poem, very inspiring.
Oh Kim, these are beautiful shots of nature in all her glory. It's hard to improve on them as they are SOOC. But you managed to do it with the textures and the way you put them together. Really nice :)
I forgot to say I love your poem too. It's perfect for your images.

Sensational Kim. Your words, photos and photo art are brilliant.
I really love how you have the light etchings in the bottom right mirroring the sun light. It giving the piece a natural balance that sooths and comforts.
Kim, all of your images are stunning. The abstract turned out beautifully, but I love the whole series!

Lovely poem, beautiful images and excellent application of textures.
Exquisite photos and beautiful words. :)

I could 'feel' the words of your poem and even though I love all your images I think this fog series might just be some of my favorite yet. I love them and the air of magic and mystery about them.
Oh I'm so glad you took more photos that day! Just love the sepia and dreamy look to them.
Fabulous foggy abstract. I just love the light in your finished piece. Wonderful!
