  1. on Saturday Alfred Glover and his son Ian came over to my studio. Alfie (if I may) brought eleven of his fantastic bird fantasies for me to photograph, and his son Ian came along to help and advise, and to represent Facebook :-)). We had a great time, and I, once again had the privilege of having Alfie's wonderful whimsical art in my studio. I give the titles in their full wording. I love them ! robert

  5. hello Wind, it is a wonderful poem. I like it, I think it is a good thought for this work, and, I've passed it on to Alfie. I think I should persuade him to do his own blog ! best regards, robert
