Attention: Small Publishers and Charity sites: If you are a small publisher or a non-profit charity site. I am flexible in negotiating download rates. I have at times offered my pictures free for causes that I consider worthwhile. And for small publishers I have adjusted my download rates to fit publishing budgets. If I do this or not is my decision and requires my permission. Contact me by email if you fit in this category and we can make arrangements. Please keep in mind that I respect honesty and forthrightness. I want to treat you fair, and would expect the same from you.

I have opted for dopiaza to do a most interesting set for me. Perhaps they can keep up with it more than I can. I have also chosen the top 100 so you can see a larger range of my better photographs.

Mistress of the Water 
The old men of the village of Mahotière say that the Mistress of the Water is a mulatto woman. 

At midnight she comes out of the spring and sings while combing her dripping long hair, which makes a sound sweeter than a violin. 

It is a song of perdition for whomever hears it. 

There is no sign of the Cross, no &quot;Our Father&quot; to save him. Her curse takes him like a fish in a net and the Mistress of the Water awaits him on the edge of the spring and smiles upon him and tells him to follow her to the depths, from which he will never return. 

(Jacques Roumain (1907-1945), Haitian author, ethnologist, political activist. Repr. Éditions Messidor (1992). Masters of the Dew, p. 146, Les Éditeurs Français Réunis (1946). Based on Afro-Haitian belief.)
Steam in the endless valley 
“We travel together, passengers on a little spaceship, dependent on it's vulnerable reserves of air and soil, all committed, for our safety, to it's security and peace. Preserved from annihilation only by the care, the work and the love we give our fragile craft.”
 Adlai E. Stevenson  (American Politician. Governor of Illinois (1949-53) and Ambassador to the United Nations (1961-65). 1900-1965)
Spring in Amherst County Route 130 
“In the Spring, I have counted 136 different kinds of weather inside of 24 hours.”

 Mark Twain  (American Humorist, Writer and Lecturer. 1835-1910)
toward the light 
“Dreams are like the paints of a great artist. Your dreams are your paints, the world is your canvas. Believing, is the brush that converts your dreams into a masterpiece of reality.”

Friends are like windows 
Friends are like windows through which you see out into the world and back into yourself... If you don't have friends you see much less than you otherwise might.” 
Merle Shain
Love and Revelation 
“Some photographers take reality...and impose the domination of their own thought and spirit. Others come before reality more tenderly and a photograph to them is an instrument of love and revelation.”  Ansel Adams
The walk home 
&quot;Your life is a sacred journey. And it is about change, growth, discovery, movement, 
transformation, continuously expanding your vision of what is possible, stretching your 
soul, learning to see clearly and deeply, listening to your intuition, taking courageous 
challenges at every step along the way. You are on the path... exactly where you are 
meant to be right now... And from here, you can only go forward, shaping your life 
story into a magnificent tale of triumph, of healing of courage, of beauty, of wisdom, 
of power, of dignity, and of love.&quot; 
- Caroline Adams
virginia byways 
“The Road goes ever on and on down from the door where it began. Now far ahead the Road has gone, and I must follow, if I can, pursuing it with eager feet, until it joins some larger way where many paths and errands meet. And whither then? I cannot say.” 
J.R.R. Tolkien (English Writer and Author of richly inventive epic fantasy The Lord of the Rings, 1892-1973)
Weavers of the Universe 
“When the fabric of the universe becomes unknown, it is the duty of the university to produce weavers”

 Gordon Gee
