Today's Photo

I took the original black and white shot of the Medusa door knocker in Rome 26 years ago while traveling with my mom.  It was a quick trip but filled with so many wonderful memories of outdoor restaurants eating family style, butt-pinching men young and old, Gypsies, fountains, the Sistine Chapel and so many more beautiful things.

The expression on her face has always touched me.  She is not an evil creature seeking vengeance by turning people to stone but rather alone and forever unable to look into the eyes of another.
