Replying to Martin

I meant to ask, Martin, would there be any chance of using a photo you posted of St Antony's well for a piece of digital art?

I thought this would be an interesting addition to this thread:

"This episode witnesses the troubled relationship between the folklore of wells and springs and memories of trauma and violation. It discusses the vulnerability and suffering of women and Jews under medieval Christianity that is symbolized in the image of the well and processed through the embodied act of singing."
