vicarious.......

ok, so.....i have undertaken the task of printing the digital photos...all 655 of them off of stephan's memory card...not that i am printing every image....many are repeats and alternative views....and i am using great discretion in choosing the printworthy......and this has given me great pleasure.....each photo takes a little minute to make its way through each pass of primary colors......which gives me a moment to study the last print.....and i have come to some conclusions.....i have impoverished clients who likely live better than stephan's landlady.......omg......but enough of what was wrong with his trip.....lets focus on the timeless beauty of the churches, palaces, and other buildings......some are magnificent......i could grow fond of onion-topped towers, and pastel-painted baroque edifices.......i have not had the full toue, so to speak.....just a picture by picture glimpse......of course......the canon camera runs on double-a batteries.....and has gone dead until we purchase more tomorrow...no more printing tonight.......a task incomplete..........
