Kashmir has a long history of resistance, which has found expression in art. In recent years, graffiti has evolved as one of the most impactful tools in the hands of artists protesting against government diktats. Shouting out from the walls of private houses and public buildings, it is a mark of both resistance and remembrance.

A #PhotoEssay about paths:
#Permaculture folks talk a lot about context: geographic, social, mental/emotional. Well, I live in a small town in Central Ohio (USDA Zone 6), where the cold gray days of November have begun to settle over us, and the sun starts setting now at 5pm. We just had a week of rainy overcast, so I was *very* excited to spend some time outside in the (cold and windy) sun this weekend while entertaining kids. Here's a story about what I did and why (with pictures).
