These were the points that supposedly run through his work. The points struck such a chord with me that I wrote them down....along with 100 or so other bits and phrases written on index cards all over this office! I'm deciding now which of his books to order from Amazon.com. As for photography and capturing something as large as your lake, it would involve having a perspective, probably from a high ground or high point, and maybe a wide angle lens. Do you know anyone with a Cessna? That's how I got great shots of the temple at Chichen Itza.

Is it a specific work, or is it the theme across all of his writings.<BR/><BR/>I have never been able to photograph my lake adequately. Instead, I try to photograph things around the lake, with water in the background to give a sense of how big the lake is.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12033578.post-1121265170572076532005-07-13T09:32:00.000-05:002005-07-13T09:32:00.000-05:00This was a wonderful post.

Reading your post makes me think perhaps tomorrow I should post a picture of it. <BR/><BR/>It caught on fire and the inside is pretty much destroyed. I don't think anyone could ever live there again. Still, I like to stand on the front porch and dream, imagine children running up the stairs, banging the screen door behind them as they go.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for putting a peaceful picture in my head this morning. I needed that.CarmenSissonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07642915514259103955noreply@blogger.com
