Default the mountain stile

mountain path


give forgiveness meaning

When the sun came up they sang. Each had the power of people speaking new languages and they gave beauty meaning




the mountain stile

mountain stile

Sunshine in the mountains is sometimes lost, and the river disregards its boundaries as the sun melts the sky for warmth. We were ever warmer on that day a long time ago when we found the mountain stile


the mountain would always wait by the river

These are beautiful but something about the 2nd one really draws me in...love the touches of purple flowers amongst the rocks. The first one makes me wonder whats at the end of the path..great shots as always

How interesting both those shots are. the path in #1 splitting the rocks is something not normally seen and you've portrayed it with interest. The second one with the wall and ladder just pulls me into the image. Very enjoyable images.

OMG, Beach! This is absolutely beautiful. One of the prettiest pics I have seen in a while. I remember stiles because I was raised in the country and so the farmer had them to get from field to field in places a gate wouldn't work. Of course that was ages ago. But this one and the pic is amazing.
