PLAYING FOR THE GODS

Here is a young man who loves to play the violin. The notes he plays are carried by the wind to heaven alone. The gods show their approval by providing a suitable backdrop to Skywatch Friday.

    this is very interesting and quite creative. I am glad you enjoyed the pink Chihuly glass art on my site and the series. I love sharing the Chihuly photos as they are quite captivating. Sorry for the delay in responding as I am traveling in Morocco. I have now moved to Frank Lloyd Wright's Taliesin West series on my website, one of the great architects in the world.

    This shot really touched me as it reminds me of my son who loves to play his saxophone outside. A couple of friends have called from at least a quarter mile away to say the breeze had carried his beautiful notes to them.
