Mysterious, alluring and as deadly as she is beautiful. Without her, the cornerstone of life is shattered, no living being can exist without her aid for long. She is shifting, changing. An artist without rival as she carves valleys into hillsides and cleaves mountains asunder. Moving glaciers the size of continents through the currents and eddies of her flow. She is a holder of mysteries, as yet, undiscovered, she is, truly, the last unexplored frontier of mankind's world. She conceals with her grace and elegance such unimagined beauty, and at the same time contains the most deadly predators in her grasp. Her soft, gentle caress along a shoreline can be a balm to soothe a savage soul, or she can be a maelstrom of horror, opening an abyss to her heart that is darker than the deep of space itself. A gentle rolling current or a violent gale. The soft patter of rain on a windowsill or a violent hurricane. She is the sustainer of all life. Lives change with the ebb and flow of her currents and mood. She is Water...and she is Life itself. ~~~~ Fourth in a four part series (possibly five) representing the catalytic elements of life - Earth, Wind, Fire, Water (and possibly Metal). Each a Goddess in her own right, as my gallery nears the milestone of 200 images. I think I will be working on Metal next so it will be a five part Elements series. Then, as promised, my Knights will be returning with a new leader at their helm....and new conflicts to overcome. ~~~~ Victoria 3 -- DAZ V3 Mertail -- DAZ Alina -- DM Productions AprilSylphiad V3 -- AprilYSH Angelfish -- DAZ Manta Ray -- DAZ Shark -- DAZ Ocean Background and plants for MPC -- LaurieS Lights and pose adjustments by me
