Thanks, Vicki.
The photo is mine, but I did fiddle with it just a bit. It was an amazing day and the sun was at just the right angle. When I went looking for an image to go with the story I remembered this shot, it seemed to capture the feeling of the story. Thank you for noticing.

Yes it is a great match with the photos and he really does seem “lost in contemplation” but that is a good thing eh. To be free to wonder and reflect, as long as he is not running or hiding from something, which would be quite different regardless of the light
Thanks, Peter.
Glad you liked the picture and the story.
My character is searching, or I think he is. I remember thinking that it was strange that I didn’t work out if he ever found what he was looking for. I hope he did.

“Someone had turned the sound down and the colour up.” — love it! I also love that in Oz, you still spell ‘colour’ correctly. publishers are loving the near-novella sized pieces these day, but I think their readers also love little moments like this. thanks, mate.
