Hi David,

Well, the inverted flying (or falling?) technique isn't something you see everyday.

It's quite a sight though, which certainly makes for an attention grabbing image.

Very well seen and caught - and thank you for sharing...

Some images from a recent return stay at the utterly enchanting Portmeirion, Gwynedd, Wales.

(Shot raw and processed with: DxO PL Elite/ ViewPoint and Adobe LrC/ PS with Tony Kuyper TK-9 Panels).

You can read about Portmeirion Here, The Prisoner at Portmeirion Here and Six of One: The Prisoner Appreciation Society Here.

Be Seeing You...

1. Our ‘spring into summer break’ - it rained on the way here and we were met by snow in Wales. (Note ‘Prisoner’ replica cape outside the merchandise shop).

2. Go on, you know you want to - we were here a couple of weeks ahead of the the 40th PortmeiriCon event held by Six of One: The Prisoner Appreciation Society. (A Human Chess game and Election Parade being among the planned festivities!).

3. ‘Unlike me, many of you have accepted the situation of your imprisonment and will die here like rotten cabbages’… Election speech by Number 6.

4. We search for strength and inspiration - from the bottom to the top…

5. Who are the prisoners - and who are the warders?

View attachment 27931

6. We are not numbers - well, not whole numbers! - we are free photographers (and we may have discovered a means to finally escape from ‘The Village’)…

Being Manitobans one thing we miss. We had a cottage in the Boreal forest. Every spring on the drive up there was short section which was just covered with crocuses. We would have to pull over for that every spring.
