I woke in the early hours of this morning and, unable to get back to sleep, I switched on the radio and listened to the World Service. There happened to be a programme about the blogs of soldiers serving in Iraq. The presenter urged listeners to click onto these blogs....I did so and came accross 'faces of grief'. As I write this my face is still wet with the tears which I shed whilst reluctantly scrolling down the blog. The images are shocking. I feel entirely helpless. I know that the answer to this hell on earth is not as simple as 'please put a stop to it all now'. If you happen to read my blog I urge you to look at 'faces of grief'.

I found the Faces of Grief unbearable and think it should be compulsory viewing for Bush and Blair. On a more cheerful note I love your photos and think you have a marvellous eye for nature at its best. Lots of love from Elaine
Oh the horror,the horror. Numbers are numbers, faces and stories are people. The greatest teachers always tell stories to express the greatest truths'the still, sad music of humanity'.Now we can share the images.
I can only thank you for the marvellous images of nature. I guess we just have to to use our individual talents for the good to try and change the world for the good in our own lives and the lives of people we touch.
Love,as always,Sheila
