 Above: I created this image in Corel Painter for Illustration Friday. This week's topic: "Quiet." Late yesterday afternoon I went out for my first long-ish walk since I got sick. It was pouring rain, but I didn't care; I craved fresh air and some exercise. I took my big umbrella and (almost) waterproof boots and went splashing about the streets. On the way back, the clouds parted and I felt sunshine on my face. It was one of those odd breaks in a storm when the light is at its most interesting: dark and gloomy in places but brilliant in others. For a few minutes, the world is more sharply outlined, as if everything before was only a shadow. In that brief break, I happened to look up...and there was a rainbow, arching over the houses and trees. It's been ages since I've seen a rainbow, and I felt my breath catch at the beauty of it. Funny how little moments like that can feed the soul. 
For those interested, I've updated He's Dead, Jim with a report on one of my favourite episodes, The Naked Time.  | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
