This is another elegant shot, Ron. I love the cropping, here - and the rich shadows that cloak the figure. The wonderful background augments an already outstanding image. Well done!

Half-man half-beast nature spirits that haunted the woods and mountains. Greek mythology. However the satyrs were not considered immortal unlike some creatures of mythology were, this particular one however lives on;)

Yet another thought provoking photograph. Very well shot, of course.
