The art of serenity
Golf course lake
"What I dream of is an art of balance, of purity and serenity devoid of troubling or depressing subject matter - a soothing, calming influence on the mind, rather like a good armchair which provides relaxation from physical fatigue."
Henri Matisse

Beautiful, tranquil shot - just like that great quote.
the sparkling water looks like diamond butterflies flitting around on water :)
Wonderful quote....and photo!
Nice photo and the gull skipped something or did it get something in the water? Nice quote too.
My daughter, Melinda, has a picture she took on my blog. It is a stunning macro.

Sitting in an armchair with this view doesn't sound bad! My view is limited to the building on the other side of the street - I guess I have to go out now!
soothingly serene and pretty
Great quote. Love the photo - the lights on the water are superb. As for the sentiment, fat chance around here - perhaps the dogs should see the photo...
Forgot to say - I left a sort of message/response for you on Fabrizio's Torino DP.
Speaking of armchairs, if Henri only would kick back with a beer, he coulda been an American.
It seems possible "to smell" air. The place is stunning but the photo isn't less (nice caption too).
P.S. I replied to your post on my blog :-)
Don't believe this photo could be better! I love the sparkles in the water.
Wonderful picture, Isabella! What an amazing view!
Great quote, I'd never read that one before now. I think Henri and I would have gotten along pretty well.
