Tripping the light fantastic

Fill'd her with thee, a daughter fair,
So buxom, blithe, and debonair.
Haste thee nymph, and bring with thee
Jest and youthful Jollity,
Quips and cranks, and wanton wiles,
Nods, and becks, and wreathed smiles,
Such as hang on Hebe's cheek
And love to live in dimple sleek;
Sport that wrinkled Care derides,
And Laughter holding both his sides.
Come, and trip it as ye go
On the light fantastic toe.

Exceprt from "A'llegro" by John Milton (1631)


At Geysir in Island in glorious mid-November afternoon Sun. Only processing was a crop. The best light in the World, probably, well the best I've seen so far. The Sun hangs low in the sky from dawn till dusk at this time of year...it's a photographer's dream!

I now shoot in RAW, so with luck, I'll replace this with a much crisper version later...
