Love your new one aTOM!! Me and the Lady just got caught up last night...SO GREAT. I'm a fan of the books, but I like the show a lot more.
I was helping my Lady do some work stuff and stumbled across my current gem while looking for "lunch clip art" on the Google. Instant save to my avatar folder.

Okay. This avatar makes me nervous just looking at it.
What kind of nut designs an air vehicle that puts the pilot in a position where the slightest mistake ends up instantly mincing his body into a bloody cloud of viscera?

For my current avatar, I went and looked on Pixabay.com (beautiful, royalty-free photos) for something that captured the beauty of running water.
I was originally hoping for a blue/green palette, but...
...in just about every other way, this worked.
And the palette it DID have was luminous, golden and autumnal, so... win.
If you look carefully, you can see the head and hands of a child touching the water on the far right of the pic.

"People without hope not only don't write novels, but what is more to the point, they don't read them.
They don't take long looks at anything, because they lack the courage.
The way to despair is to refuse to have any kind of experience, and the novel, of course, is a way to have experience."
-Flannery O'Connor
"In spite of much that militates against quietness there are people who still read books. They are the people who keep me going."
-Elisabeth Elliot, Preface, "A Chance to Die: The Life and Legacy of Amy Carmichael"
