Spazzdog, I took a look inside the book. Those are really wonderful. I may well buy that book. Those are the kinds of photos that inspire art quilts and collages and weavings and all kinds of cool stuff.
"My predominant feeling is one of gratitude. I have loved and been loved;I have been given much and I have given something in return...Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and an adventure." O. Sacks
