Well lock in the office again today, but a chance to get back behind the camera this evening shoot of a earthwork is named after Orpheus to celebrate its descending form and as a place for music and contemplation. When Orpheus’ wife, Eurydice, was killed by the bite of a serpent, he went down to the underworld to bring her back. His songs were so beautiful that Hades finally agreed to allow Eurydice to return to the world of the living. www.kimwilkie.com
