    Positively Beautiful! I like the “Sky lies under Sky” image.
    That would be something to see. I’ve seen the ocean when the moon was shining on it-the effect was a sort of silver carpet in the water.

    Beautiful! This evokes very peaceful feelings. Makes me think of the full moon reflecting on a calm lake after dark.

    I love when the layers of the world merge magically into a new place.

    Just beautiful. I agree with the other comments. Beautiful photo too. Like the poem there is a feeling of enchantment.

    Intriguing photo. Reminds me of lying on my back looking up through the trees and thinking I could actually see stars during the day… which can’t be, can it? Very thought provoking, those two skies…nice.

    A meeting of the extremites; the heavens and the depths, both in one. Very nice.

    It is magical on a moonlit night to see the moon and the stars dancing on the calm waters. Well done!
