Water pounds down mossy hillsides into heart-shaped ponds
and flows past creations full of fire
It meanders past herons, crafted of bronze,
and ponds bordered by colorful fragments of earth
Traveling through dense forests, it thunders over sheer cliffs,
and settles in creeks, calm and cool

I love the way you guided us with the river through this journey with the elements.
Thanks! Glad you liked my guided tour.
Terrific gallery, Siobhan. The narrative you created is perfect.
Thanks so much, Egidio!
So lovely Siobhan π
Thank you! π
What a lovely journey by the river.
Thanks, Ritva!
A clever approach to the five elements challenging, blending water with each of the others! That heart-shaped pond is just gorgeous and the Tumalo Falls look stunning too :D
Thanks, Sarah! It took a while to find examples of each element.
Wow, nicely done. I love how you approached this challenge and your photos are as beautiful as your words.
Thanks, Sofia! I had fun with that prompt. π
A great take on with beautiful photos! I must say at first I thought the heron was an oil damaged bird... The Tumalo Falls is my favourite.
Thanks! The heron sculpture is in a kind of odd position. Yes, the falls are beautiful!
