    Those photos are all beautiful! I really like the first one… it almost looks haunting with the haze.

      Thanks so much Janna. I love the woodlands around here. I often use my photos to illustrate stories or am inspired to write a story as I think you are too!!

    Gosh, Cybele, that looks like some kind of super-charged portal to another dimension that has opened up in the forest Grimm. It so fascinated me, that I just had to click on the picture to enlarge it and get a closer look.

    I really like your Grimm, but that peacock, oh my goodness! Awesome photo, Cybele. Obviously, The best camera is the one you have with… as they say.

        I think you must do and don’t think you even need to say that they are from your phone, a photo is a photo. 🙂

    Cybele, I love the second one with the fern on the foreground, and the B&W peacock is simply unreal! It looks beautiful wide open in B&W.
