I think art allows the eye to play and through eyes, the spirit and through spirit, everything. I could post a thousand pictures.







Please do.
and the ears get to play too- with audible art and the body with dancy art!!
oh– can I go with next time, to lake placid? I've never been there. is it cold, cold water? or can you jump in and swim for a long time without turning blue?
Farland,
I LOVE your pictures, really, really do.
Jeannie I just looked and I have posted over a thousand photos on Gaia. Wait, you want a thousand more? I'm on it. Dawn it's coolish but swimmable you can swim all over AND it is drinkable right out of the lake! Karin, ever since we were little when we went on picnic's to the island we would each put a birhtday candle on a clump of moss, make a wish and send it out into the lake at dusk.
I should like to be one of those candles setting out on a bright journey acros the great lake Placid
what a beautiful birthday ritual~and today is my only 'child''s 25th birthday! i shall light candles for him…Though they wont be floating out on a lake, they are from my heart to his!
Happy birthday, Rene`.
And congrats to you, Farland, on 1,000 lovely photos. Look forward to the next 1,000!
So pretty.
Like they do in Rishikesh, India. :-)
Placid - a beautiful name for a beautiful lake. Farland - next time you visit that area look up Canadice Lake - you'll love it. Six miles long, one wide, so clear you can see the fish 50 feet below, rock bottom, no buildings, and surrounded completely by 300 year old hemlocks and high wooded hills.
