This is not a question on which I spend a lot of time, so I’m probably not the one to walk you through this, but I had to note with interest that there is a gene after all and that it’s probably not quite as simple as a butterfly flaps its wings in the Philippines and a blogger cleans his ears in Tokyo.

A 3-panel panorama of the sunset the night before we returned. I really will try to do a larger version of this because this width doesn’t really do justice to what looked like the the fiery maw of god’s kingdom itself.
A very belated happy new year to everyone, although it’s still January and I never really get going until February.
