On hazy wings, all shot with mellow gold,
I float, I float thro' shadows clear as glass;
With perfumed feet I wander o'er the seas,
And touch white sails with gentle finger-tips;
I blow the faithless butterfly against
The rose-red thorn, and thus avenge the rose;
I whisper low amid the solemn boughs,
And stir a leaf where not my loudest sigh
Could move the emerald branches from their calm,--
Leaves, leaves, I love ye much, for ye and I
Do make sweet music over all the earth!
This is just breathtaking. I love the color tones, and the softness of the glower. Almost had a dreamlike quality about it, and I find it very pleasing to the eye. Yes, it also has a vintage or aged feeling about it. They well done, and definitely had your stamp on it Judy.
Why this is amazing, is... such a myriad of different bits with different emotions (for lack of a better word) blend together so by your hand! Pretty flower, stark tree, sparks of fairy light and butterflies...combined with your processing this is all at once rather melancholy and yet a wonderful vision of spring. WOW!
Ahhhh JUDY! Yes! You outdid yourself on this one. I am amazed! Awed. Jealous that you can put together such beauty from different images. Congratulations on off-the-chart beauty and perfection!
