This year we are sending Advent cards.
I could wax lyrical but what's the point - there are enough pretentious ......
anyway, I'm still interested in using everyday experience to help us remember and reflect.
The image is below so please feel free to use it if you want (i've posted this early so you've got a couple of weeks before advent)
Just let me know, eh?

Ben as we've come to expect, extremely artistic, fresh, inspiring and just bloody good!

Ben, this card is simply wonderful. I am wondering about reproducing it, or otherwise obtaining actual cards. As requested, I am letting you know I downloaded the photo and plan to post it on my blog (URL provided) around the beginning of Advent, assuming you have no objection. Of course, proper attribution will be given. Again, great work! I love the Mary card as well.

Hi Ben,
May I use the "Wait" picture on my blog "A fine wee place". It rings very true to me at the moment as I explore my call to youth ministry and ordination?
Full details to your blog etc will be given if you are happy!
Peace to you and keep up the great photography!

Ben thanks for your creativity and generosity in doing this. One of my youth cells are looking for some advent resources so I’ll be putting them on to this.

Ben, this is fantastic.
My friends and I are forming an advent blog that will be up soon, as a personal creative exploration, and also to engage others in the significance of this waiting journey.
I would love to use this pic! And if you have anything else that could form part of one of the days posts PLEASE get in touch!

Ben - thanks for this. We are using it as a visual at the beginning of our services through Advent.
