A Month of Sundays: Week 27
Generosity is an amazing thing. Some people give of their time and talent and others share their yarn. I got 5 packages in the post over the last week or so. I opened all those packages today. This is just some of what I received. I also got some stitch markers, candles, handmade card and a few other things. I just couldn't hold onto everything.
Thank you to all my generous friends that I hope to have the pleasure of meeting one day.
I was asked to photograph an acoustic gig at the Generous Briton in Loughborough and jumped at the chance to photograph some musicians under coloured lighting and experiment with the images.
Thank you for taking the time to take a look at my photographs

All my photos today were "mug shots" of the items that have been donated to the Gardens for Sunday's fundraiser. It reminds me once again how thankful I am to live in such a supportive and generous region.
Taste of Generosity was held at the Nicollet Island Pavilion on Wednesday, September 12, 2018. This fundraising event included a live and silent auction, dining, and plenty of socializing with wonderful supporters and volunteers!
This flower is widely spread and the head is a mass of exquisite little flowers. I really enjoy the way the pale blue pink yellow highlights and browns harmonize.

On Saturday, 3 February 2018 Veronica-Clibborn Dyer generously invited RAS members to visit her beautiful garden and adjacent buildings with Kwun Yam and Shing Wong Temples and a small museum of local field and lifestyle artifacts including deity ceramics.
In 1996, Veronica Clibborn-Dyer and her late husband Ron, formerly a HK policeman, discovered a run-down property in the hills above Nam Chung in HK’s far north-east, overlooking Starling Inlet. Some good detective work and the lucky find of a scrap of paper with a UK phone number on it enabled them to finally identify the owner and background of the building and eventually an arrangement was established whereby they became live-in caretakers of the property. This involved years of hard labour by Ron and Veronica, clearing out a lot of old rubbish, since the place had been a refuge for women, mostly retired amahs who had nowhere else to go once their working lives were over. As well as cleaning up the property to make a home and conserve the place, Veronica and Ron created the most wonderful garden in the terraced grounds. With its beauty and charm, plus its position amid some of HK’s most stunning scenery, their Temple of Peace and Tranquility is truly a special and unique place.
At the top of the nearby hill is a pavillion dedicated to the memory of Sir Edward Youde, Governor of Hong Kong from 198 to 1986. From this viewing point there are views of Sha Tau Kok, Starling Inlet and the Yantian district of Shenzhen in mainland China.
Thanks to a generous gift by Dartmouth's Class of 1957, the Dickey Center welcomed back to campus Mr. Khulekani Msweli of Swaziland. Khulekani was a 2014 Young African Leadership Fellow at Dartmouth. He returned for the month of January 2018 to work on a temporary art installation on the Haldeman Center back lawn on the theme of migration. A fashion designer and fine artist by training, he is also a community activist who is eager to share more about his work and culture with students and faculty during his residency at Dartmouth.
EXHIBIT: Inzaba Yetfu (Our Story), Stories of Migration
"The installation offers a very harsh reality of the times we live in, a refugee camp, not knowing what tomorrow will bring. The ‘tent’ made from used clothes in America and some from Swaziland will try to deal with our fears. Which clothes belong to a Swazi and which belong to an American? It’s quite hard to tell, thus it could be anyone that could be faced with living in a refugee camp.
"The ‘laundry’ that is being aired, within the installation, is a mirror of my realities, good and bad, but ones that require close assessment and interrogation. These are my stories and those of migrants."

We finished up in Memphis and I made it home today... It was so great to see Misty and Connor...
Quick story... Misty and Connor picked me up from work. We decided to go eat at Firebirds... Had a great supper and when I sent my card to pay for it the waiter returned with my card in hand. He said "one of our guests has already paid for your meal"... We start looking around and can't see anybody that we know. After asking the waiter, I get a name but it is nobody that we know or have ever heard of... Some random person paid for our supper. Whoever you are, thank you so much... It is great to know that there are people in this world who would do something like this...

This latest batch of photos wraps up my Great Blue Heron and fishermen series of photos from Rocky Fork State Park near Hillsboro, Ohio, on April 20, 2014.
This Great Blue Heron was just hanging around waiting and watching for the fishermen nearby to pull a catch from the water. At that point, the bird launched and took flight to where it could collect the fish from the man. This photo is what caused the flight. The man is tossing the fish onto the dock for the Great Blue Heron. After consuming the free food, it stayed around and waited for a second fish. Those shots are posted in sequence behind these in my photostream.
