I've read about Fred at the homepage of one VT member.
Fred Siwak, our VT member uses the name
PALS. Fred suffers from a disease that does not allow him to travel, except in his mind and virtually through the internet. He continues to express himself creatively. His spirit is strong and among his dreams is to see pictures of his art in as many parts of the world as possible. Please do visit Fred to know more about PALS sufferers.
I took a copy of Fred's butterfly with me and took my first picture with it in the center of London, UK during my summer holidays there. If you are able to help Fred out, please do drop him an e-mail (with a regular e-mail contact, as VT allows only smaller size attachments) at seaweed@gis.net. He will send you a jpeg photo of his art so that you too can bring it along with you on your travels. Please, help Fred to make his dream to come true.
If you also want to participate you'll find his beautiful butterfly
