I am the mist, the impalpable mist,
Back of the thing you seek.
My arms are long,
Long as the reach of time and space.

I love the way the fog/mist is just starting to devour the trees. Great scene.

An imagination of a landscape described in eerie tales. A silence that might become dangerous.

Misty and poetic, without beeing scary. This is how I feel your landscape. Nature just delivers perfect paintings for who can see. You obviously do.
