… some special shots I have been working on over the weekend. In the kitchen I have a wall devoted to our cats … there are two 11 x 14 watercolors of Nimbus and Q and a photo of One and it is time for a photo of Katie to go up too. The watercolors are beautiful, but only partial heads so I have redone the image of One and completed one of Katie.
That is Katie above this text and immediately below is a new photo of Katie … below Katie is a portrait of one of our Bobcats and below her is one of a Bengal Tiger that I shot at Out of Africa … click on this link. If you are looking for a sweet little critter, check the Humane Society of Sedona out … all four of our cats have come from there … it is also a no kill shelter and you soon to be best friend is there and waiting for you.
Kind of a mixed-up week underway with the 4th holiday on Thursday … wonder if I can get someone to work on my air-conditioning unit before the holiday? Thank heavens for the rain and cool down this evening and still continuing!
Have a beautiful day … keep breathing and smiling … if you appreciate the wonder of the first, the smiles keep coming … you are here!
Cheers,
Ted
When will the nations live by reason’s light,
And not by deeds that terrify?
New groups of nations win with every fight;
An endless feud, and always men must die.
When will the nations cure the itching palm?
Change curse of national pride to love of peace?
When shall we know again the gift of calm?
Dear God, when will this killing cease?
We crossed the seas to curb a nations lust,
We sought by force to quench and alien fire.
From now we strive to understand and trust
Fair play to bring the worlds desire.
How can we look these veterans in the face?
We snatched them from their dear familiar round.
Is our dream mad to school a wayward race?
And what of them beneath the ground?
