[From the Stars]

O Will-o'-the-Wisp, in silver dusk
Who'd wish for golden dawn?
In purple night, with stars a-light,
Who'd dream of noontide gone?
Who would not stray by the glimmering way
Your wandering feet are drawn ?

Annie Campbell Huestis: Will-o'-the-wisp

Yup, it's a will-o'-the-wisp. (do you guys actually call them that? It's such an complicated name, but the only one I found. x'D )

A will-o'-the-wisp is a ghostly light seen by travellers at night, especially over bogs, swamps or marshes. It resembles a flickering lamp and is said to recede if approached, drawing travellers from the safe paths

In Germany, we simply call them "Irrlicht", which derives from "irren" meaning "to stray" and "Licht" which means "light" and I suppose it's because of the rumors that they are in fact magical beings who beckon you to follow them and have fun watching you drown in a marsh "U MAD, wanderers?". XD I've never seen one, but I think I'd totally freak out if I did....they're pretty, but kinda scary. :B

aaaaaaaanyway, I actually just wanted to try something new and take a step out of my comfort zone, soooo: Scenery!

I hope you like it. Comments and Critique is welcome!^^

Absolutely breathtaking. I love the little elements of light and the curious deer(?) in the background <3

Thank you very much. It's supposed to be a unicorn, but it's small enough to be mistaken for a deer. ^^

I absoultely love this... simply breathtaking. I only just noticed the unicorn, but it's a fine detail that brings a lot to the piece. I also love all the lights and the will-o'-the-wisp. And I think 'Irrlicht' is a beautiful word... well, German is a beautiful language. <3

Thanks to both of you. It's not intermediate bccause I didn't post it there (well, duh xD). I just wanted to try something new and had no idea how it would look in the end...soooo, that technically makes it an experiment.^^;

German IS a beautiful language indeed, often mistaken to be harsh and cruel sounding, but some aspects are simply awesome.^^ though English will probably always be my favourite language. :B
