The Mountains to the Sea

And set my spirit free.”

Beautiful pictures that give to vastly different mood. Love the colorful flowers in the first picture. A good one for greeting this post. Mountain over white cloud, the scene that you just want to spend time savoring it for a while.
The “Haystack Love” is interesting mood. To me, it seems like it is a mythical place with magical creatures and witches and wizards.
