You have captured an ethereal light in almost all your stuff, kind of a deja vu whisper, great contrasts. Art et Amour Toujours

Artist Reply: Doug, I am fortunate enough to pass this beautiful setting when I walk in the small village I live in located in the Ozark mountains. I am soon to move to the Gulf Coast of Florida as this was my first winter in 30 years and I don't care that much for the cold. But the beauty has been abundant as are your words. My gratitude for your gracious observations. Michael

So nicely composed!!!

Artist Reply: That is another of the ancient springs downtown. The Native Americans used this water to heal and for spiritual rituals. Great springs. Thanks so much for your kind comments. Michael
