I love that photo. Almost as beautiful as the cover photo of my book. Wonderful. And it’s a real privilege for sure. I wake up grateful. Xoo thanks for this. Lovely Beth

The perfect image to use for ‘after the storm’. And Keith definitely knows he is lucky to wake up every day!
Best wishes, Pete.

There is nothing as wonderful as the air after the storm. Even here in SoCal, I love the day after the rain!

fitting photo! i get up every day thankful to be able to do that, for having a roof over my head and that I can put food on the table. I’m so glad it was ‘just’ a passing storm and that no ppl got killed.

Beautiful photo, Beth! A rainbow is both colourful and symbolic. I hope the recovery period after the storm will be fulsome and quick for your community.
