Description

This Seagull kept me company while I was waiting for Tony who was at the Brain Injury Service. It walked around & "talked" & just relaxed for 2 hours. It had me thinking how life can change, in my case in 2 short months & in Marta's, in 12 months. Thinking of you girl!!! Lens aperture F/3.7, shutter speed 1/776sec, focal length 63mm, taken at 10am at Bar Beach, Newcastle,NSW.

Thank you so much Chris! I am deeply honored and touched by your entry. It was very long and hard day for me and my family yesterday as it was the anniversary of Cole's death. We celebrated with friends and family and the community of Cole's school by having a short assembly and balloon release that was covered by the local media which was pretty special. I'm thinking of you now as, I'm sure, you're wondering what the future holds in store. Take care, and keep your chin up! Marta #5643026

So much feeling in this simple capture, Chris! A wonderful dedication, and I hope it was all good news about Tony as well.
Thank you for side tracking from your doctors appointment and having lunch with us last Tuesday, it was a wonderful afternoon! #5646474

I forgot to add, Tony has gone back to work now, he is still recovering slowly, he was told it will take 2 years!! He still gets very tired, & can't stand being in noisey, confined places, so I have learnt if he is to annoying & I want him to go outside, I turn up the TV & make a lot of noise. Thanks again for asking after him...... #6251966
