  1. “you create your opportunities by asking for them” – shakti gawain – yep, I can run with this one – I’ve used it on several occasions – simply letting those who have the power/influence that you would like to have a crack at something can work wonders – not immediately perhaps but somewhere down the road….. sowing seeds.
    That’s an impressive piece of casting of a carefully crafted sculpture, impressively interpreted by your photography.

  2. thank you, i also relate to the words of shakti – as well your own “sowing seeds” your comments are greatly appreciated as well, thanks
