Gems By Lamplight #15

If you wait by the river long enough, a new entry of "Gems By Lamplight" will surely float by... Let's see what the artistic currents deviantly brought us in the past few months !

The wider world is reflected like a promise in the windows of an iconic English castle in parallel-pam's proud picture, while Yoona-K01 immerses us in the razor-edged wonders of a cold city night and DimitarMarkov creates a miraculous landscape of nostalgic longing and miniature epiphanies. Next, Edinburgh has never looked as glorious as in JanKacar's striking capture, a compelling Snow Queen electrifies proceedings in evagamayun's powerful painting, and the eternal Rhine majestically flows away in UdoChristmann's fascinating black and white photograph. Trouble ahoy ! as iGingerbread's fearless heroine prepares to tackle an overwhelming adversary in a beautifully moody image... Rest is at hand in jxsnyder's exhilarating view of nature at its best, seen from an eagle's eyrie. From this real-life Lonely Mountain, a Tolkienesque continuity leads us to giadrosich's exquisite portrait of Arwen Undómiel, graceful and heart-breaking as only true beauty can be. Finally, there is lingering magic and lurking marvels in calimer00's funfair at twilight, chateaugrief freezes a primal moment in time on a coast deserted by mankind, seemingly effortlessly drawing on the accumulated expertise of centuries of painting along the way, and Aro79 brings us the vibrant picture of a cityscape reaching for the sky.



As a last note, the talented MarieRaine, methodically pursuing her conquest of each and every art medium, has crafted her lovely first video which can (and should) be watched here :
