"Never to get lost is not to live, not to know how to get lost brings you to destruction, and somewhere in the terra incognita in between lies a life of discovery."
........ Rebecca Solnit

"Give, give, give -- what is the point of having experience, knowledge or talent if I don't give it away? Of having stories if I don't tell them to others? Of having wealth if I don't share it? I don't intend to be cremated with any of it! It is in giving that I connect with others, with the world and with the divine."
........ Isabel Allende

"Don't ask yourself what the world needs - ask yourself what makes you come alive, and then go do it. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive."
........ Harold Thurman Whitman

"The real voyage of discovery consists not of seeing new landscapes, but in having new eyes...."

PR says:

first one is like the chess on the water.. while glancing them over I thought that you have made some preliminary installation before shooting

Dhamaka says:

PR - thanks, it was better at night in the firelight but I had a meeting and couldn't play then

taniwha says:

good stuff. You are doing lots of quite thoughtful piccies on this trip. Feeling inspired?

20th May 2007, 08:59

Dhamaka says:

Bronxelf - I'm pleased you like them!

Thanks all

Taniwha - Partly, also I have the time to myself to think things through

Also the couple who own and run this place are particularly lovely people and I said I'd send them some photos to put on their website. It's nice to hear you've noticed the thought because I was trying hard to take shots that told something of their place as well as its surroundings

Boet - I wondered... hehe

The morning light here has a wonderful warmth to it. I think that's what really makes the shadows

That surprised me because Mendoza is a desert and I had imagined it to be harsher and lighter
