Might have to send you a Xmas card this year. That should give me enough time to find a good shot for you ;)
Just so you don't forget, there's this guy we know who does an excellent range of greetings cards from your photos.
You will find him here, there and everywhere.

Hi Gudrun. I tidied up a little. It might be good if the 15 minute edit window included the picture. I'll look into it.
Love the way the thread is meandering now, as Islander said.
Cheers.

Kamakura Temple. South of Tokyo 1991.
When I think of remembrance, and symbols of grief, I often think of the temples in Kamakura, where I found myself in 1991. My grandfather had just passed away back in New Zealand, and I couldn't make it back for the funeral, so spent the day here instead.
Guess this constitutes a thread jack, but oh well. I blame the fever from my head cold.
Thank you. That means I am getting there huh?
Might need a few more, before we know for sure. Lovely shot Sofie. ;-)

The one that gets me every time (and yes, I am mildly obsessed by it) is Emma’s Snow Dalek.
Screw you earthquake and weather apocalypse, I’m making a Snow Dalek!
I am in awe of this sort of human spirit in the face of adversity, and the photo says it way better than words ever could, IMhO.
Ok ok, I’ll move on.

I’m not sure if we should post pics ourselves but, what the hey…
Last I looked, it's still a photo blog.
Anyway, surely safer than pictures of dignitaries and the constabulary. ;-)
It interests me not just a little bit how images can carry more significance and power than words sometimes, and as a result be more challenging. Well, I've found that to be the case, but YMMV.
Glad you made the effort Gudrun, and pleased to have given them a context.

Have added a bit of a bio to the opening. Thanks for that Gudrun.
As a regular contributor here, I'd also like to refer everyone to Adrienne Rewi's blog page, where she posted more excellent photos from yesterday.

Just added another photo of Ariana Tikao and Jon Hooker to main post.
This seems a little on the fly, but glad to be able to get it published today.
Thanks very much for what I couldnt get to see in actual time Gudrun- much appreciated-
Appreciate your early feedback Islander.
