An Eye and a Lens on McLeod Ganj

Alright I cheated today. Today´s photo was taken from the balcony at about 10am.


Although the weather was beautiful this morning, I was putting together the final draft of my Literature Review paper. It´s been a struggle, but it should put me in good stead for the final dissertation.

It clouded over this afternoon, but tonight the cloud has lifted yet again. Despite the bright moon, the stars are plentiful. It´s a bit cold out, but i take my hot chocolate and watch them twinkle with the mountain backdrop.

Keeping me company on my MP3 player is Kristin Hersh. We go back a long way and Speedbath, a recent MP3 album release, makes for some real magic moments.

Speedbath
is available for download by clicking here.

Kristin´s discography as a solo artist and her band, Throwing Muses, is immense. Solo classics include Hips and Makers and The Grotto or check out the wild Muses release, House Tornado.

Hersh is an exceptionally gifted musician and poet.

  2. Hersh bought herself out of her record contract and now works through Cashmusic where downloaders are asked to make a cash donation. Would like to try and find something similar for my photographs.

    Krait and Torque are two of my faves from Speedbath - i hope you love them too!
