  • The Palazzo Alberti-Corsi is a late 15th century town house or palazzetto.  It was eventually bought by an English art historian Herbert Percy Horne, who restored the residence to what he determined was its original state.  He left it to the state after his death.  The interior is fascinating and each room has a determined young security person who enforces "no foto."  However in one small room where the leaded window glass  appealed to me, I managed a quick shot with my pocket Canon G10.  The varying thicknesses of the glass roundels appear in different shades of blue and pale orange.

  • Every Prague restaurant and cafe serves its particular recipe for hot spiced wine.  This is wonderful for rest and refreshment after a morning or afternoon of winter walking and sightseeing.  The image, shot at ASA 1600, exhibits a lot of color noise, which may be interpreted as a digital pointillism if you are willing to be flexible.

  • Through the display window of the gallery of Monika Spruth and Philomene Magers, London, during a show of new photos by Cindy Sherman, whose figure is seen in over life size enlargement on the walls.  They are so placed in a black-and-white background landscape that the three standing figures, each in a different costume, seem to float. I have admired Sherman's work and went specifically to look at this show.  It was to me more like a performance than an exhibition of work one might want to own.  Nevertheless an interesting view at dusk.  The street behind is reflected faintly in the windows too.
