Description My mirror just shows me. Me but not inside me. I would really like to see through it, to discover my real soul, my own true self. I am not afraid. I will pay the price for the knowledge... And maybe one day I’ll find this magic mirror among the universe mysteries, maybe in the moonlight’s thousands rosettes, maybe into the crystal fairies’ iced lakes, maybe into the sky’s abalone mourning whispers or just simply into the eyes of the one I love and who loves me…

I have taken this shot on august 19, from the Abbey ramparts of the Mont St Michel, north-west of France, at low tide. It was about 5:00 pm and the light was very surreal, like a grey light, which is absolutely impossible, but here’s the result… The big fluffy clouds were softly reflecting on the merged salt and sand surface which seemed to be made of pearly smoke…
The sea, so far away, was secretly flirting with the horizon, waiting for the night to come back again and wash my thoughts away…

No colour manip here, just a little bit of contrast and frame added with Paint Shop Pro…
