She rides a bicycle.<br /> Heiress of a honey face. Skin fresh with lustrous healing waters of motherhood, she surrenders her seeds of compassion. Sedate. Stoic. Stealth. Every spin of the wheel emancipates the caring spirit from the torturing miens of machismo malice. Steadfast, balanced, with pure sweet grace she peddles this day. Heavy is the air which blankets his kingdom, choking and gasping he falls into the chasm of her wake. If God is a Man, then God’s god is a Women.

Sometimes it is better to put the notions of others in your back pocket, to caring with you, to give their ideas time to mix in with your own observations, to look for examples.</p> <p style="text-align: left;">So last night, I finally responded, “Instead of commenting, I think I’ll post an image instead”.</p> <p style="text-align: left;">Bicycle Man is that image. Forthwith his essence I think renders the notion of Elspeth’s closing sentence, ‘ ….the stuff of life: we go, and <strong><em>we keep going even when we do not know or understand what it is we are in</em></strong> ‘.</p> <p style="text-align: left;">In the span of a few minutes, perhaps fifty people passed me by, yet out of the crowd I focused on him. His image, I hope, is an unbiased, unprejudiced representation of someone who has all the attributes (though undefined here) is able to, as Elspeth states, ‘makes ordinary life work’.</p> <p style="text-align: left;">A picture is worth a thousand words, so with his image I give up a manuscript.

Inspired by a beautiful a seascape, warm breezes and hospitable, kind Cubans; all fuel for the imagination. I was inspired, however that will have to wait, as it seems I brought home one those very nasty stomach aliments which looks and feels like the photograph below.</p> <p> </p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.beyondplumcreek.com/shtufffs/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/sick.png" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-1371" alt="sick" src="http://www.beyondplumcreek.com/shtufffs/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/sick.png" width="720" height="480" /></a></p> <p>Everything has purpose I suppose, though I head no idea at the time I shot this photograph of angry spoon-fork cross breeds to what degree the image would factor in my health. There they lay boxed, in a workshop in the city of Ciego de Ávila; as harmless as kittens or baby lambs in their inert state. The shop turns old spoons, knifes and forks into sculpture and jewellery unlike anything I had seen previously, with the exception being a Salvador Dali painting (no doubt the inspiration or possibly Don Quixote) . Oddly enough, I still found the jumbled heap of parts incredibly fascinating over the high gloss finished product. An like all the other sights and experiences I will come back to elaborate once the angry utensils have vacated my stomach.</p> <p>So with these few photographs, I hope to set the tone as to what is coming. Please stay tune, I will try not to disappoint.
