The impossible we can do but miracles take a little longer

This weekend I shall be taking some more pictures for the Somerset Art Works brochure, the last ones of the hand through the tree have not come together as well as I'd liked even though we had great sunshine on the day. I have a hunch that the day coming to shoot on will not be so crisp, finding a tree that is in sun that has 'the right' kind of hole for this sort of picture, at this time of year!
Wish me luck, this image's hole is twenty foot up a tree hidden in the Horner valley. The book on the first blog is easier to access but the photo's are all OK not fantastic, and I'm really looking for the fantastic. As a boss said to me once 'the impossible we can do but miracles take a little longer'
On a file note, I have been struggling with email auto responders that can carry an attachment (my walks) any suggestions anyone?

Where the story begins

Art for me is a personal thing, it's about keeping a green bough in the mind. These tales came out of the ether, and my heart, I wanted to do something that felt fresh and different.
Something which encapsulated the diverse aspects which influence me, namely trees, storytelling, folklore, and tech! (and in that order too.)
It's odd where you end up at the end of this kind of journey, and in many ways these tales are still unfolding, still renewing.
I hope you like the journey and destination, the work was originally created for me and my family to enjoy, now it's time to share it with a wider community.
