I thought the Tapestry-like image of The Mask and Mirror was beautiful.
I agree. There's so much going on in The Mask And Mirror cover. It's very lovely. I also like The Book Of Secrets cover. Just the color sheme and how Loreena's standing sideways. Very classy.
I love all of them, but I think I have to go with "The Mask and Mirror", I really like how you can see a sort of tapestry behind Loreena. It really makes me want to listen to the CD! I also like "An Ancient Muse", though, because my favorite color is blue.
I didn't vote because I don't know which one I should vote for. I love them all but especially the ones feature Loreena's photos
The most special cover to me should be "A Winter Garden". This is the first Loreena album I got, I bought it because the cover really impressed me a lot. It reminded me of my childhood in my granny's courtyard with the huge pomegranate tree there...

I actually voted for "The Visit" because I love the colours and feeling that it evokes; but I love all the rest. My least favourite would be "A Winter Garden." I do really like "An Ancient Muse." They are all so nice!!

I voted for Parallel Dreams, because I love the scenery, harp and - well - basically the entire image. It fits in well with the type of music on the album. My second favorite is either Book of Secrets or An Ancient Muse.

I favour many of the covers, but if I have to pick one, it is "The Book of Secrets." I tend to prefer the covers that depict Loreena, and I find it more intriguing when she is looking off to the side as opposed to directly forward.
Also, did you know that at least one of her CD covers has more than one version? My CD for "The Visit" is different than the one in Mihalis' avatar, the one shown on the QR website. The picture on mine, seen on this website, http://www.nordfly.com/ProductImages/cd/pic3472.jpg shows Loreena approaching a door from the left, with her right arm extended, suggesting that she may open the door.
I bought the CD years ago, in Canada I'm quite certain. Don't know whether they (QR) released different CD covers for "The Visit" in Canada, the US, and overseas...
I dont know, this image with a woman in black dress outside a door is reall amazing... It makes u wonder what is behind the door...If Loreena is gonna enter inside or if the door will open...
Well for the same album Visit I have seen another Loreena's cover in the same pose outside the same door but she seems to lift her hand in order to knock the door...take a look:
Well by the way if someone knows about this cover I mean if it was released in limit numbers or if is just a photo for magazine shall inform me ... ( I always wanted to ask in the Old Ways List I think I will may do it in future)...thank you...

I picked Elemental, though An Ancient Muse is a close second. I can't quite pin down what I like about the Elemental cover so much. Her dress, the harp on the horizon, the mysterious, kind of scary house... On An Ancient Muse I love the blue colours and the misty mountians in the background. The Visit I really like too, so mysterious looking. But all her albums have such great covers.

My favourite would be The Visit, with only one reason: I fell head over heels with the beautiful long coat Loreena wears.... Now that is a perfect coat!
I thought the Tapestry-like image of The Mask and Mirror was beautiful.
An Ancient Muse is very different from the others, it took me a few days to adjust to it, the picture being darker and in a different style than the other albums. All the albums make me wonder why I didn't figure those artworks out! I love them all, but I like the Visit best, also because of the beautiful photography in the booklet. I can look at those pictures for hours, they are beautiful!
I have downloaded the desktop too! then again, my desktop changes 3 times a week...

An Ancient Muse. No question. I love the colors; I love the depth and texture, and the way that the tent looks to be alone in the wilderness, both mysterious and inviting. It makes one want to go inside and see what exotic mysteries await within.
In less flowery terms, it makes one want to buy the album. lol. I have it as wallpaper on my laptop right now.
