She is She
July 28, 2011 
In the early morning quiet. In the fog. In the mist. In the day's shadows.
She flits..she floats..she spreads her broad wings sweeping in and sweeping out. She flies.
In a moment - hovering..she stops to catch a view of herself in the waters still and calm. Reflecting back at her her truth. A mirror never lies.
A hint of color on her lips. A glint and a glimmer in her eyes. Wings that are light and bright and free and strong. Elegance and grace and beauty within.
She is she. Wherever she travels..she will forever be.

Wonderful! Love the prose, it fits the image perfectly.
Powerful enchanting words with a magic photograph to boot.
Lyrical prose, Marcie!
What a great photo! And I like your take on it.
What an elegant frame for an elegant creature. A contemplative frame with a hundred stories about freedom & change in it. A great photograph, Marcie. All the best & safe travels, Fritsch.

Immediately I hear Charles Aznavour singing She
What a great capture!

This is a lovely picture, but the words add an incredible dimension - bravo!
What a peaceful moment you experienced... and captured!
Minutely and beautifully observed, a poem of observation, in fact. The photo is, as ever, magnificent. I do repeat myself, but I hardly know how else to say it.
A delicate capture and words that accompany the image so beautifully. Really well presented, Marcie.

What a perfectly timed capture--great shot and as usual I love the prose Marcie.
Narcisse version oiseau, un regard d'une rare élégance.

I love this photo that you have captured so very well Marcie....the right place at the right time....but your story telling about her is ever so poetic....it makes me feel like i have been gliding along with her....well done my lady....you have given me a smile today:)....peter:)
it's as if she's looking in a mirror.. :) nice shot!
After this one, I want to see you in action with a camera.
Beautiful capture. She looks like she is fixing her make up!
Haha that look is priceless! As if she is actually checking the mirror and being a little shocked what she sees :)
