"A picture is the expression of an impression. If the beautiful were not in us, how would we ever recognize it?" -Ernst Haas
I guess I have a better understanding of what Haas says after viewing your wonderful picture.:-)

Un regard très doux sur ce paysage de rêves et cette mer d'un bleu éclatant. J'aimerais bien y être plutôt que de vivre les -25 degré celcius à venir demain.
