Description
A Dryad is a deity or nymph of the woods. The origin of the term arises from Greek Mythology. Although originally specific to oak trees, dryads eventually came to symbolize deities of all trees in general. As the mythology evolved, the dyad for each type of tree was given a specific name. They were normally considered very shy creatures, except around the goddess Artemis, who was known to be a friend to most nymphs.

Now I know the origin of those little nymphs that inhabit our Oak trees!! What a beautiful image you have captured. Super fractal Stan. The soft colors really represent how delicate these little creatures are. Great work as always.

Adorable pastel winged creature! She seems very shy indeed and so frail too! Glad she accepted to be seen by you, therefore by us! Magical image!

As a glorious water lilies, this Dryad is coming up. Very triumphant and confident of her softness and beauty. This should be celebrated, Stan. Congratulations.
