Refreshment

I am trying to win a contest.

 

Microsoft and Lenovo are planning to give $50,000 US, to a photographer, to spend working a project, and blogging it.

 

I can do this.

 

But I need help. I need Votes.

 

When they say, "name your dream", this is one of mine. Toad and his gyspy wagon. The time on the canal.... following the mule. That was what I flashed on. The Wind in the Willows was one of the shaping books of my youth. When I was a kid in Ohio we had a wood behind the house, about four acres. That's a fair chunk of tangled deadfall and mysterious nooks and crannies. It was where I set Badger's House in my mind's eye (there was a patch of fallen branches which was covered in leaves and twigs and snow in the winter. Beneath it was a small bit of dark dryness. The wood-rats Ratty scared off with his brace of pistols and cudgel could have lived in it).

 

That's what I want to do, it's what I want to share. First I have to make the top 20. Then it's up to the judges.

 

Take a look at my stream, see how I show things, and if you can support the idea (at least enough to see it get considered by the judges), please, "pic" it.

 

Thanks
