Mixed Media Monday - Enchanted

When I saw the challenge, I thought SOME ENCHANTED EVENING, and it ended up being a castle in the mists. I love old castles. I'm convinced they're all enchanted, aren't you? Textures from Skeletalmess. Bodiam Castle from Liam's Old Books.

  2. All I can think about on this very hot night is that somewhere it is cool. I have been seeing all the mermaids in their cool haunts and now you have given me mists so beautiful I just want to be there. Beautiful work, Bev.

  10. That's such a beautiful picture Bev... I agree with you - castles are enchanted places. Or should that be enchanting? I love the special effects you've used - clever and creative!

  16. "Some enchanted evening, when you find your true love" has been replaying in my brain all week. It's the only line I can remember from the song from "South Pacific." Castles are definitely enchanting. I have yet to see one in person. Great take on the theme.

  19. Personally I can't go anywhere near a castle without disappearing into some sort of fantasy world dreaming of love trysts and battles and magicians! I used to work almost next door to one of England's finest. The town where I live had a castle once upon a time but all that's left now is a doorway and the only dragons passing through carry passengers on rail connections!

  20. There's a hoary old joke about monks chanting their morning prayers with the mantra "morning". All of a sudden the abbot stopped the chanting and cried "Someone chanted evening".
    Boom boom.
