I love this photo, Ron. It is as though the wall has come to share a sense of “life” with the world around it rather than be a “still.”

Thanks Robert, the photo’s been around for 6 months or so, waiting for its text (title) to become “known” to me. It’s interesting to see which photos we take are the “stayers”, don’t you think? Other photos, that I’ve assumed (at or near the time of their taking) to be more impressive, over a period of months just drop away and I don’t come back to them.

Yes, I agree. I have just been posting some old 1970s photos that have stuck with me. This whole idea of seeing what sticks is what is happening with me in relation to my photos of China and India. When the sifting is done, I will be ready to write the books that go with the photos that make it through the sifting process.
