“I can get obsessed by anything if I look at it long enough. That’s the curse of being a photographer.”
― Irving Penn

Rydw i wedi ffeindio bod yr holl waith yn Drala Jong wedi gwneud gwahaniaeth i fy iechyd. Er roeddwn i wedi blino ac roedd fy nghyhyrau yn poeni, mae'n gwneud rhywbeth da i fy ymdeimlad o fywiogrwydd.  Penderfynon ni fod rhaid i fi fynd allan mwy. Dydw i ddim yn gallu rhedeg nawr fel roeddwn i arfer rhedeg, felly awgrymodd Nordzin dylwn i gerdded mwy. Felly heddiw oedd y diwrnod cyntaf.  Mae'n nawr mwy na blwyddyn ers i mi redeg, felly mae’n amser i fi wneud rhywbeth arall - yn bendant.


Mynd ar daith cerdded yn ffordd dda iawn i weld yr ardal leol. Well na rhedeg oherwydd rydych chi’n gallu treulio mwy o amser yn gweld pethau ac yn archwilio. Rydw i'n gallu gwneud cysylltu â phobl hefyd. Roeddwn i dynnu llun o ardd rhywun y bore yma pan gurasant nhw ar ei ffenestr ac yn rhoi i mi’r ‘bodiau i fyny’.  Rydw i’n meddwl ei roedd yn golygu eu bod yn gwerthfawrogi fy ngwerthfawrogiad o'u gardd.


I lawr lôn rhwng y tai mae darn o baent le rhywun wedi paentio dros rywbeth. Mae’n bob tro yn gwneud i mi feddwl am waith celf fel Mondrian pan rydw i'n gweld rhywbeth fel hon. Tipyn bach mwy o liw a llinell a bydd e’n waith celf ei hun.  Mae'n demtasiwn mynd yn ôl gyda thâp masgio ac yn gorffen y gwaith. Y tro nesa, efallai.

I have found that all the work at Drala Jong has made a difference to my health. Even though I was tired and my muscles were aching, it does something good for my sense of vitality. We decided I had to go out more. I can't run now like I used to, so Nordzin suggested I walk more. So today was the first day. It's now more than a year since I ran, so it's time for me to do something else - definitely. 

Going for a walk is a very good way to see the local area. Better than running because you can spend more time seeing things and exploring. I can make contact with people too. I was taking a picture of someone's garden this morning when they knocked on their window and gave me the 'thumbs up'. I think it meant they appreciated my appreciation of their garden. 

Down a lane between the houses there is a patch of paint where someone has painted over something. It always makes me think of a work of art like Mondrian when I see something like this. A little bit more colour and line and it will be its own artwork. It's tempting to go back with masking tape and finish the job. Next time, maybe.
