    Every now and then something makes you step back and realsie that not everything in the World is dark and negative.:sunny:

    I'm not sure why, but something has just reminded of this.

    As an aside.. How do I directly post/show youtube clips?

      On yet another very different theme.

      Someone else who astounds me with their talent/skill is Stephen Wiltshire. I wouldn't want any of his work on my wall, but never the less, he leaves me with my jaw wide open.

      Sadly I feel that he doesn't get the same enjoyment from his work as we do.:(

      Part two http://youtu.be/JzCnf6GMQzc

      Someone else that I both admire and equally feel sorry for is Akiane Kramarik. I admire her for her work, but feel sorry for her in the way that she has been exploited by both her family and the media.

        Eddie, thank you for more beautiful moments. I saw Kseniya Simonova (Ukrainian Sand Artist whom I believe won Ukraine's Got Talent in 2009) perform this on TV (and I think someone may have posted it here a couple of years ago). She has talent beyond imagination.

        Thank you for reminding me of her special talent.

        I do like the sand art on overhead projector as very clever
        I do not like the photographic art, although very talented, it just does not seem right
