Catastrophes, wars, terrorism, ecological disasters, deadly diseases,
poverty ....
The list of tragedies - both personal and public - is endless. Every
day and hour media, politicians, experts - and charlatans - bring us
a never ending barrage of bad things. No wonder that many people feel
depressed and weary.
This blog tries - in a modest and personal way - to contribute to a more
balanced view. After all, there is so much to appreciate and
enjoy in life ...
Picking daisies in Waititi (Dunedin, New Zealand) in 1912. My restoration and colorization of George Pye Crombie´s image in the Museum of New Zealand archive. The two young ladies in the picture are probably his sisters.
A few years later (1917) George Pye Crombie was killed in action in Messines, Belgium, aged 35.
