Hey, nice view of the Eden Project in the background. But isn’t that full of tropical plants from other countries? Maybe I’m missing the point.
Does anyone else think the fiddle player looks like Anthony Worrall-Thompson? Or is it one of the Hairy Bikers? LMAO.
This is great :~)
I have been feeling the same way about the mythology of Welshness. Aren’t we so lucky to live on a most beautiful and diverse island where the ‘monuments’ of our mythologies are still in evidence and available for us to go and see and touch and feel and photograph. I love that our land is rich in standing stones and castles and ancient tiny churches and their ancient essence is steeped in our very bones….
I love your blog! Need to get going on mine again :~)
Blessed be ~
Hi Helen. Yes, we are lucky. Love the way you describe this ‘most beautiful and diverse island’, ‘rich in standing stones and castles’… Sometimes I forget to appreciate this enough. Yet I’m always off seeking these little old places, these crumbling stone monuments of the ancient dark days.
Thanks for coming by.
Bright Blessings.
Hi Sam. Thank you so much for visiting my blog…and I love that ‘we have been floating on the same cloud’ :~)
It is late and I am just about to go and lay my head, but wanted to write you a few words first.
Will visit you and write more soon…when I am more coherent!
Oh! and you were certainly not garbled and ridiculous!! :~)
Blessed be.
Thanks, Helen. Looking forward to it.
Thanks for being gracious about my daft comment too.
Bright Blessings.
Sam –
Thank you so much for your kind comments and for visiting me. I look forward to your photos. I understand what you mean when you talk about something other than digital. For me, I always gravitate back to my Polaroid. Unfortunately, the cost does not allow it as much as I would like.
Lisa, you are most welcome. I’m so appreciative of the wonderful job you’ve done this month with the Flickr group, like I said. You’ve really nurtured us. I’m a bit disappointed with my return to Polaroid, again. It is such a tricky process to get the images to develop right, and even then, rather hit and miss. So it’s not quite scratching the itch. And the cost …. eeesh. But I shan’t give up on it completely yet.
Much love.
