Experience teaches that anyone who begins to collect in any field can feel a change in his soul. He becomes a joyful man filled with a deeper empathy, and a more open understanding moves his soul.

Nige, for educational purposes, which my pages represent, would you perhaps be prepared to photograph her beyond a more silent background and allow me to upload these on pressglas-pavillon.de - your copyright assured in the manner you would prefer :angel:
