Today has been a Telemann day and I cannot recommend these 2 Harmonia Mundi recordings too highly. Wonderful music, performances, and recorded sound.

Yet another drawing from Maine. There was a hollow tree stump in the backyard of where we stayed. I liked the small plants coming up out of the shadows.
