Kuraga Elvi preparing for the winter

Quietly Elvi sat there in the beautiful light, preparing onions for the winter. Being self-provided with fruit and vegetables is important on a small island when the winter is harsh and the Baltic Sea freezes. From my project ‘Big Heart, Strong Hands’, published in 2020 by Dewi Lewis Publishing.
