The dreams of trees

by Molly Moore
Molly laying on tree stump in green woodland beneath the trees
When Summer lies upon the world, and in a noon of gold,
Beneath the roof of sleeping leaves the dreams of trees unfold;
When woodland halls are green and cool, and wind is in the West,
Come back to me!
Come back to me, and say my land is best!
~J. R. R. Tolkien

This is beautiful – your pose is so delicate. This image oozes the need to painted. I can just imagine many layers of acrylics – each layer adding another dimension

The stump is so Tolkeinesque. Yo u can almost imagine Frodo happening upon this tree nymph!

This dreamy woodland series still makes me think of Alice in Wonderland, although Alice never looked this sexy.

Beautiful image, except you don’t look much like an Ent – male or female. 😉

This gives me the impression of a very classic, fine oil painting. 🙂

Beautiful photo. 🙂 Is it just me, or does the tree stump almost look like the pattern of a snowflake?

Molly, you look like you own this forest!
A perfect combination of a sensual but powerful pose. Beautiful!

M—The words captured me and I realized that they are from The Ent Song! Your lovely photo does those words justice and as a Tolkien lover, I couldn’t say more—XO DWD

Beautiful image.
Frodo and friends will definitely forget about the ring when they find you like this 😉

I do like the whole “enchanted forest” and its Dryad spirit vibe that is going on in this image.

I’ve always loved forests, never yet found me a Dryad though…
