Lady of the Lake... A folklore legend connected with Llyn y Fan Fach is the myth of ‘The lady of the lake’. In the folktale, a young farmer of the 13th century spotted the most beautiful girl he’d ever seen emerge from the lake, she was a princess from the kingdom of fairies. He courted the fairy princess by baking her bread and after 3 attempts he succeeded in winning her hand in marriage on the condition that if he hit her three times she would leave him. He complied easily because she was so beautiful and they were happy for years bringing up a family at his farm near Myddfai, with her magic dowry of farm animals. In time the inevitable happened he hit his wife and she disappeared back into the lake taking her prized animals with her , leaving the farmer with her sons. The sons once grown became known as the “Physicians of Myddfai” who became physicians to the English royal court.
Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound together. All things connect. ~Chief Seattle
"Connected"
Another cyber scene, with a gynoid connected by wire to the WorldWide Web.
A representation of the connection of the contemporary human, to all the data and events of the world.
To the good and the wrong.

I have a very strong feeling at the centre of the image, like two fingers connected to each other, just like the iconic image of the Hand of God giving life to Adam in Sistine Chapel by Michelangelo.
I've long considered myself metaphorically homeless. The places I've lived, I've struggled to connect to place - with San Francisco being the most connected while Chicago has been the worst. I feel detached and distant overall, which likely speaks more to my own self perceptions than where I've found myself by happenstance or choice. Vietnam is different, though not without caveat. There is a place where I felt naturally at ease, relaxed and surrounded by meanings. The caveat of course is the culture existing there, while being one I appreciate, admire, respect and would love to be a part of, is kept at arms length by my being an American and not having been raised in said culture, nor faced the struggles of said culture. Travel is not life, despite how much one wishes it to be and these photographs, while attempting to show the chaos and peace of marvelous Saigon (HCMC), are an attempt to show my love for and forced distance by birth from Vietnam.

it has become undeniably proven how in many cases we are interconnected by friends, family, acquaintances, etc. I find it hard in fact to find ANYTHING that is not connected to something else in this world of ours. Deep huh, :-)
