Description
While walking down a path in a wooded area near Jordan MN - I came upon a gate made of tree limbs - tied together with vines - no nails a very organic structure - Almost unreal - I raise my camera to take a picture and this creature of beauty bolted into the path just on the other side of the gate - without thinking my shutter released - as I raise my head away from my camera to regain my composure before my next shot the path was empty - as if it had never happened - and in my mind I new that indeed it was just the light playing tricks - as it does at times - nothing more - I continued through the gate - a strangness surround me - and for a moment I began to anticipate what may be ahead - When I down loaded the days photo's one photo emerge - I have kept this to myself till now unsure of what was - I have decided to share this image with you with the hope I have not been the only one to have had such a experience - All I can say is Big foot eat your heart out - I know what I will search for on my next expidition ! - Thank You for viewing -

I just got so immersed in your Story...before the Image Loaded....I thought to myself....He has seen an Alien too...now, of course ... said the Horse...it's a Lovely Satyr....just beyond a mere Mans reach...which don't apply to You. Go get Her Boy!!!
Yeah. Lovely. What a story. Hope I digged it all ;0
Enchanting Work ...Beautifully Done !!!!

Don't know what I like the best, this wonderful image or your magical story!! This is the whole package, makes me feel good just being here!! My vote, Greg!!
Excellent artwork!! Wonderful story!
When the light plays with your eyes and your mind plays with the light it's good to have a camera that shows. great creation!!
I'm fascinated by your wonderful story as well as by your dreamy image! Fabulous artwork! vote
some people have all the luck!
Thank you for sharing this image. It is great!!
You are surely makin' magic for us with this one, Greg. When you fill your days with wonder you have to expect these little glitches in the fabric of things. Just enjoy the moment, as I have enjoyed your whole presentation.
Thank You for all your great comments - I noticed that in the process of decreasing the size there has been some distortion and change in the image - I have tried to correct this but there is a feel of intimacy and a lose of cleaness in the image - If anyone knows how to prevent such things please Help :)
Wonderfully Done!
Wonderful vision! I give you the same advice I gave to Thinkingoriginal: When you resize an image do it in several steps and use unsharp mask inbetween. Hope it helps!
Wonderful work Greg.. As for the problems you describe there are several reasons for it.. Need to know what it is you do.. I work till the last minute in Tiff or non compressed format and save only once into Jpeg using save for web in Photoshop7 Guns tip is good but whatever dont save and resave in Jpeg as you will lose detail each time..
The depth, light and shade, subtle textures, etc. drawing the path inward toward the implied vanishing point are SQUEEZEETO! See, I tollya you'd be spickin' Spaghetti Western Biker lingo soon enough*"For A Fistful Of Harleys"*(?), hehe. SUPERB and ENCHANTING, including the "lead-in"....
Wonderful image, Greg!!
Great text and the image is well done as well...
Wow, outstanding story and image! This is pure magic! Way to go Greg! :)
An ideal sense of being held tightly without being imprisoned. You lucky dog, you!
I love the attention for the light and the vibe :)
