And meet me in the river of love
Love is a river
That flows gentle
River of love
is cristal clear
Let all your worries go

Bonjour cher ami Philippe.
".. the intense and brilliant emotion the Prophet Jacob (Upon whom be peace) felt for Joseph (Upon whom be peace) was not love or passion, but compassion. For compassion is much sharper and more brilliant and elevated, and purer and more worthy of the rank of prophethood than love and passion. If the love and passion for metaphorical objects of love and creatures are intense, they are not fitting for the elevated rank of prophethood. This means Jacob's feelings, which the All-Wise Qur'an describes with brilliant, glittering eloquence, and which were the means to attaining to the Name of All-Compassionate, were a high degree of compassion. As for passionate love, the means of attaining to the Name of All-Loving, it concerns the matter of Zulaikha's love for Joseph (Upon whom be peace). That is to
say, however much higher the Qur'an of Miraculous Exposition shows Jacob's (Upon whom be peace) emotions to be than Zulaikha's, to that degree compassion is seen to be more elevated than passionate love. My master, Imam-i Rabbani,1 did not consider metaphorical love to be altogether fitting for the rank of prophethood and therefore said: "Joseph's virtues were virtues pertaining to the hereafter, so love for him was not of a metaphorical kind so that it should have been defective." But I say: "Master! That is an artificial interpretation, the truth of the matter must be this: that was not love, but a degree of compassion a hundred times more brilliant, more extensive, and more elevated than love." Yes, in all its varieties, compassion is subtle and pure. Whereas many varieties of love and passion may not be condescended to.
Furthermore, compassion is extremely broad. Through the compassion he feels for his child, a person's compassion encompasses all young and even all living beings, and acts as a sort of mirror to the comprehensiveness of the Name of All-Compassionate. Whereas passionate love restricts its gaze to its beloved and sacrifices everything for it. Or else to elevate and praise its beloved, it denigrates others, and in effect insults them and abuses their honour. For example, one said: "The sun saw my beloved's beauty and was embarrased. In order not to see it, it veiled itself in cloud." Lover, fine sir! What right do you have to impute shame to the sun, which is a light-filled page of eight Greatest Names?
Moreover, compassion is sincere, wants nothing in return; it is pure and seeks nothing in exchange. The self-sacrificing, unselfish compassion of animals for their young, at the most common degree even, is evidence for this. Passionate love, however, desires remuneration and seeks return. The weepings of passionate love are a sort of demanding, a desiring remuneration.... (From letters of Risale-i Nur)
Thanks,regards,amities

Bonjour Philippe,
Les arbres font un cadrage naturel à la rivière. La prise de vue permet de voir la rivière qui coule lentement et les détails et les couleurs des arbres. La lumière de l'après-midi rehausse les couleurs de l'image. Bonne journée.

Que c'est bien écrit. Je ne connaissais pas ce monsieur, mais c'est comme si il décrivait cette belle image. C'est vrai que l'eau est très claire et semble bien nourrir la végétation environnante.

Hello Phlippe,
A beautiful spot, where the curved route of the stream guides the viewer around the entire frame, in a most leisurely way and gives time to absorb every detail:
sharp, well saturated, romantic.
My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Bonjour Philippe,
Oui, le bruit ne fait pas de bien, et le bien ne fait pas de bruit. Il savent ça dans les campagnes, et savent en tirer parti. Un bel endroit pour se promener. La photo est habilement construite dans la courbe de la rivière. L'exposition, la lumière, les couleurs et la netteté sont excellentes. Bravo.
Bonne fin de journée
Amicalement

bonjour Philippe
un petit coin bien tranquille et joli comme tout,idéal pour chasser le stress, où comme le dit le poême, les inquiétudes s'en vont avec l'eau cristalline.
Rivière de l'amour, peut-être, rivière de charme, sans aucun doute.

Hi Philippe
A stream within the fresh greenery with glimpse of autumal colors. Probably you are attracted by the gentle flow as can be seen on the left frame. Good clarity and fine colors but I love the tranquaility it rendered.
Well done

Bonjour cher ami Philippe.
Nice reflections in the water at left with a soft, diffused light. I see a little over sharpening, but that is a minor point. I like the sweeping curve of the stream from right to left with natural perspective where it funnels towards the distance at right. Nice repetition of the trees sprouting with fresh new Spring growth. Tfs!

Bonjour Cher Philippe,
The thick woods are a bit reminiscent of a Peacock's feathers. Such rich vegetation and a lazy spring flowing. The lyrics of "River of Love" create an appropriate atmosphere for the lovely photo.

Ici tu nous montres un endroit naturel avec une beauté toute spéciale - une beauté qui peut-être ne transparait au premier coup d'oeil. Dans ta composition j'aime surtout ces têdarts qui toujours donnent une ambiance un peu mystérieuse. Toute la photo me plait beaucoup ...

Bonjour, cher ami Philippe,
le titre de ta photo définit parfaitement ce que nous voyons dans cette jolie composition.
L'atmosphère que tu nous offres dans ce beau coin de la rivière avec une végétation exubérante est très bucolique, la nature nous offre toutes ses couleurs splendides sous une faible luminosité, avec un grand résultat esthétique.
Un travail très élégant et attractif.
Avec mes amitiés,

Very nice nature shot captured every element with perfection. I like the color contrast between the red and the green. The foreground stream and the background trees create a very beautiful and peaceful atmosphere. Colors, sharpness and depth are superb.

Bonsoir Philippe,
I like how the stream curve around a small island(that's what I assume about). Mild light through forest and lot's of green aropund gave a unique ambiance - no wonder you love the place...
The title should read "River of love", or the mistake is on me?
au revoir
