Your photos capture the wonder, or create it, depending on where the viewer is coming from. This is a strong tabblo: well assembled, each photo a jewel.

Dear Allan - thank you for visiting and for your thoughtful comments. The beads still have a special power for me even though I am far from the Church, or any Buddhist sangha these days. What continues to amaze me is how many others can be touched by these bits of wood, and glass, and string, and wire, and metal. Be well Allan.
