TODAY'S PHOTO -
A chair for you to sit in and relax or meditate, when you
take time out for yourself during your busy day.
This is a view from the outdoor, covered dining area at Sueno
Azul Resort in Costa Rica. Last February Sam and I gifted
ourselves the pleasure of a week long Omega
Workshop there. The workshop, scenery, people and food
were all wonderful.
The PAINTED
PHOTOGRAPH workshop was led by Norma Brown Hill. To learn
more about it and see some of her unusual work using Polaroid
transfers, visit www.artnsoul-online.com.
From Long Island, NY, Norma does many workshops throughout
the US and her work has been exhibited in museums and private
collections.
This photo was one of those that simply popped up as I was
opening files to choose one for today. For the record, it
was not selected to promote either Omega or Norma. I'm simply
following my practice of sharing these random photos, and
their references, if they "suddenly" show up. I
figure there must be a reason why they appear at that precise
time.
Is it intuition? Synchronicity for someone, somewhere? I don't
know. If for some reason this view in Costa Rica, or resulting
workshop info, has triggered something for you, I'd appreciate
your emailing and sharing that with me. Many thanks.
READER COMMENTS ON YESTERDAY'S ISSUE - Issue
58
speaking of memories, yesterday's photo and writing triggered
two very different memory responses.
From Texas:
"Sometimes your florida pics look so exotic and tropical.
This looks like our own White Rock Lake. Our lake is a large
manmade lake, a 5 minute drive or 15 minute walk ...we go
there often. It is full of birds, ducks, water rats... all
tpes of wildlife...I hear we even have coyotes, allthough
I have not seen any. We are so close to it we call it our
backyard. I was taken there as a child to feed the ducks."
From our niece in Pennsylvania, on the swallows comments:
".swallows are important to [youngest daughter] as
March 19 is St. Joseph's Day, the day the swallows return
to Capistrano every year. I was there in 1983 with [children]
to see the mission, not realizing that was the day! Boy, was
it crowded!"
Thank you both for sharing your memories. They, of course,
led me to google to find out about the story of the
Swallows
at Capistrano. While I was at it, I decided to check White
Rock Lake for anyone who might be interested.
