| When i began taking photos of the Island a couple of years ago it was because i needed to surround myself with her throughout all the long countless days that i was away from her.

| 1 Jul 09 | Island (3) | (2 Jul 09, 6:07 PM by Chariots_Rise) |
| Home is where the heart is yet home is a scarred lump of rock. How can something so harsh make me feel so soft?
