I feel the sky had the right amount of blue and not distracting to kill the gull.<br /><br />Did I say kill the gull? It was like picture captions in our first ever website - "tiger shot in ......" (meaning photographically).

Your posts are always so moving and visually stunning, I always feel short for words to convey what they make me feel. <br /><br />I don't like being different but I've learnt to live with it, different is normal to me. I don't really mind what others think, unless it affects my children's wellbeing, then I become "normal". The 2% are the fools that carry the world forward with what others perceive as madness. <br /><br />Here's to difference.Claudiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07168756659741926721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18166829.post-11790150519442945752012-01-27T22:30:55.248+05:302012-01-27T22:30:55.248+05:30magnifique série !magnifique série !Mariehttp://marietom.aminus3.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18166829.post-74801651814735984522012-01-27T18:50:02.930+05:302012-01-27T18:50:02.930+05:30my friends,

Your photos are stunning, n°3 is my absolute favourite, I'd love to have it in large print and I'd think of you every time I see it. I've missed your pervasive sense of fun and beauty, your random thoughts and acute wisdom. I loved the post Ruth dedicated to you recently, I felt so close to all her words. Thanks again for being back and for your visit in Avignon. Things are a bit tough emotionally wise at the moment but I know I have strong support from my family and friends and lots of activities that I enjoy so I'll pull through. <br /><br />Would you say 98% are followers and 2%have the courage to be rational? I don't know - I don't see myself as sooooo different to others yet I neither see myself as part of the superb 2% nor one of the 98% who follow without querying their own beliefs, religion and myths... I'd say I'm just a very ordinary human being trying to apply her brains to a bit of digging on a number of subjects. Thanks for helping me in this process, I love reading you. Keep posting Rauf, we've missed you for too long.<br />:)Nathaliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02308523489103068439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18166829.post-44158881749947899772012-01-25T19:37:35.100+05:302012-01-25T19:37:35.100+05:30Hi Rauf

I did read Jonathan Seagull years ago when it came out and loved it. I have never been a follower Rauf – it would have been easier for me to stay in my country. I cannot say I left organized religion as I never was a member of any. It is harder in a way not to be a follower, but the freedom is worth it.<br /><br />It is hard to catch birds in flight and you did quite well. In December when we were on the ship near Grenada, West Indies, I spent hours on the deck trying to catch the Frigate birds in flight, and like you sometimes just got the tip of a wing. I’ll have to place them on a post. I did not get any as close as your birds. <br />Thanks for commenting on my blog. Like you cost has always been a top priority for my travel. I had wished to visit Martinique since I was 12 years old or so and last fall found an 11 day cruise on an Italian ship that was cheaper than just a round trip flight to Martinique. <br /><br /> I am so pleased you came back to your blog. I hope you’ll write more posts – and your type of posts – don’t mince your words – we need to hear what you have to say.Vagabondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10774109692564954568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18166829.post-80311798512855291602012-01-25T02:39:11.517+05:302012-01-25T02:39:11.517+05:30Hey!
