I got involved in a discussion earlier on about promoting Wales in the USA and it quickly became apparent that in order to effectively market an area, you need to de-emphasize the 'normal' aspects and emphasize the more interesting aspects in order to create an attractive image.

I still live in Wales and so I'm very close to the issue; too close perhaps to arrive at an unbiased conclusion. My question is therefore directed to you Cymruphiles living overseas: 'How is Wales viewed where you are?'

Perhaps you could also cast your eyes over my site which shows a direction that could offer such de-emphasis of the 'normal'? It's at: www.ImagesByGrahamWilliams.com
