Description
In 1925, Col. Percy Fawcett went in search for the lost city of Z, hidden somewhere in the Amazon rain forest. He and his entire party were never heard from again. The story was told to me by my father years ago. A friend of mine, who spent the 60's in South America. heard many tales pertaining to this forgotten civilization. He believes that it exists, but not on the floor of the rain forest. Instead it is to be found on an escarpment high above the Amazon jungle. At any rate, the legend exists as a link between Reality and Myth on the crossroads of the imagination. Hope you enjoy the quest!

Cool shot, nice job. Saw a movie called the Emerald Forest, true story based on a white boy taken and raised by a Lost Indina Tribe along the vanishing Amazon Rainforest, great movie, this reminded me of it. Peace

"crossroads of the imagination" I love that term and it is a perfect fit for this image (and the story). Great work! Linda
