Killarney Lake on Bowen Island

A walk around Killarney Lake can take a pleasant hour or so. Like any body of water, its mood changes with the weather and the seasons. I have run around the lake; and I was thinking of that when I wrote the musical piece: Dawn on Killarney Lake. Click this link to play it:

[play MP3 of Dawn on Killarney Lake]
Right-click and ask to open in a tab or another window
so it can play as you continue browsing

This exercise is to see if I can embed some music in a page. Your browser will need Quicktime for this to work. Edit: not exactly. I had the parameters to have the QT player appear and play while you are looking at the image. Somehow, that was stripped off. There is a link to the music, and if you click that, and have Quicktime, you will hear Dawn on Killarney Lake. Odd.

In the WordPress forum, Key Master Matt explains, “Sorry, we strip <embed> tags here on WP.com for security reasons.” Posted: 2006-02-27 05:04:08

White Flowers on the Trail to Rainbow Lake

I’ve wondered how to pull in images from a Flickr account to show on the blog. Ecto’s program (donationware), called “1001″ seems to be able to do it. I want to show thumbprints in the blog, and larger images when the thumbs are clicked. Try it, and then read the rest of this article. Edit to add align=”right” border=”5″ to the pictures code
