Photos are starting to come in of the latest Autumn Gathering which was a fantastic weekend. You can see them in our Gallery for Autumn 2009. The weather was very kind (what - no floods or other apocalypses??) and the usual blend of peace and activity prevailed. Some amazing objects were created under the watchful eyes of our resident tutors - one of the nicest things about a gathering weekend at Taliesin is that afterwards there always seems to be more beautiful things in the world than there were before.... Kayak building pictures October 2008 10/02/2009
Pictures of the kayak building course have now been added to the Autumn 2008 Gallery page Taliesin meets Geograph 09/21/2009
The Geograph Project aims to collect representative images form each square kilometre of the British Isles. Ed has been sharing some pictures of Taliesin at NX7955. He also notes with pleasure that the Scots pines (and here) at the top of the recently felled Potterland Hill (overlooking Taliesin from the East) have been left standing and new regeneration growth is emerging. The Geograph also includes a fabulous shot of the new pond loop which really sets it in the landscape. This would be a good shot to repeat regularly and watch the ponds merge into the environment. Remembering the first Taliesin Festival 09/12/2009
