I'm Working On It

I'm really working on the Germany pictures thing, and one day I will in fact write down every little memory that's important to me (after all it is my blog) even if they aren't actually important or even interesting, but they will be written down on this blog. One day I will get to it. I promise. Really, I have to, because otherwise I will forget. I forget a lot of important things, I never forget the things that are important to me, but I have found that the things that are important to me generally do not carry the same value with others. For example, I loaded some of my favorite pictures of my trip to my Flickr account (the slideshow on the left will link to it). While they are certainly my favorite pictures, they are not others' favorites. They are too close up, many are taken looking directly into the sun, they don't give a good perspective of where I was. But they are exactly how I remember the trip. I remember getting as close as I could to everything and soaking in the details close up and I remember looking into the sun and seeing things mapped out in black against a brilliant light. I don't remember detail by detail what Old Town Square in Praha looked like, but I do remember looking up into the cloudy skies and seeing a beige and grey building towering over my head and feeling it. Feeling the beauty and the age of the city. 

The large cityscapes don't get me, but a close up of bright persimmon stucco does it for me every time. 

Anyway, just trust that in time I will get around to doing it all. In the meantime however I have 16 pages to right about my trip in order to receive credit for going on it... Wish me luck!
