I'm horrified that you should be injured by a pesticide and stopped from following your inspiration. I would love to see some of your nature photographs. Could you post some on Americymru?
My own leadings are to do with the spirit in the natural world and began photography as means to celebrate that. Currently, I am widening my angle of view to embrace the embedded history in the landscape.
Cofion, Ken

I now have 2 dogs. Lily is really my granddaughter Emma's little cocker - living with grandma while Emma sorts her live out!!
Brock is elderly sheep dog. 14.5. He is cartoon in my books.

At 1:44pm on November 14, 2008, Valerie Wood-Gaiger MBE said…: Dear Wild Cherry
It was such a treat to be taken for a burn up round CollegeTown in Ithaca on an Indian. A happy contrast to what happened last week. Last Friday, a week ago, I was involved in a bad car accident. My car is dead & am feeling very sorry for my self. No really badly hurt, thank God, but I ache all over, especially my chest. It was a combination of driving a little too fast on a wet road, wet leaves and a great big, huge, timber lorry being in the wrong place. Afterwards I looked across the meadow to see a wonderful double rainbow. God's message of hope. A costly and hurtful experience but we (me, dogs & lorry driver) are all alive.
I am going to donate a book to Americymru - perhaps you will win it!
God Bless
Valerie

At 3:37pm on October 7, 2008, Clark Owen Parry said…: Thanks for the note (Diolch yn fawr) We saw the proverb in a Welsh language study, and it almost made me cry!! My people settled on the Vermont/NY border in slate country. My Taid (Owen Parry-Jones) was a Slate worker, and my dad said he was an expert at cutting, "Steady taping...etc." Glad I posted the saying, and happy it brought you some joy. Grace and Peace

So many animals you have!

At 4:41pm on September 19, 2008, Katharine said…: Hi!
I see from your description that you have a small harp. So do I. I've been learning mainly by ear - do you have any suggestions for videos or DVDs on learning harp?
Diolch!
Katharine
