Those images truly capture the spirit and purpose of two people who have changed my world view and purpose a noticeable amount. They also give me more reason to verbalize my feelings,

Thank you.

Clearly, I have somehow offended you and I am sorry. As I said, I think the photos are beautiful. You said the woman had recently died... the thought that entered my mind was that the photos were at a memorial. I don't know enough about you or your work to know if you would post photos like that. I never assumed you were trying to take credit for someone else's work.

Oh no! I am not offended. Tone is no no no I was not offended. Tone can be tricky on line. A few people have assumed that I was collecting juxtaposed images and *collaging* them. But really truly i just wanted to clarify and took NO offense. I always appreciate your comments and now it is my turn to hope I have not offended you.

Wow. Since the question does not appear to be rhetorical, I will risk an answer. I thought the pictures could be of publicly displayed billboards. Pardon my ignorance.

No, not rhetorical. Not sure what you mean. Do you think I am taking photos of other people's photos for the posts?

They’ve given us so many beautiful memories! Gosh! This 80 + year old arrived in Vt. right in the beginning of their magic! They never let us miss the mystery and poetry and pageantry of life especially in these beautiful Vt. hills ❤️ Celina

Thank you. And yes. I used to say that when Peter gives up walking on those mile-high stilts during the circus, i will feel old. He did. I do.
