It's hard to get away from it all. This photograph was taken in our hotel room in Nice, France in April 2001. I remember being amazed then that this Philips TV was exactly the same model as my TV at home in California and it was the reason I took the photograph. In the...

My wife and I recently returned from a tour of northern Spain. Our group visited the renowned ninth century Montserrat Monastery high in the mountains north of Barcelona. In some free time I decided to split off from the main tour group to explore on my own. Near the t...
