Photography, art, travel, writing, poetry.
I love the creative process.

The photograph/avatar is of an ostrich looking directly at the camera. It is looking impish mainly because it had just tried to pull my wedding ring off my finger and failed. I got the feeling it wanted a second try.

Apparently 28th April is Terry Pratchett Day, being his birthday an' all.

Birds in the trees and fish in the river are the only noises to be heard.
Peaceful.

A team of hikers in a San rock shelter in the Eastern Cape of Soutg Africa
The walls behind them are covered in rock art (not visible)
The rock art is unusual in that an eel is present amongst the normal San rock art images.
