So here we are, on the road again, and I hadn't sorted out the Sony A6000 to Snapseed interfaces.
I shoot RAW and my image transfers from this trip look meh. After 4 weeks it finally occurred to me to look at the file size. Lo and behold, thumbnail jpgs were transferred. Ugh.
This is why my cellphone images look sharp on Flickr and the A6000 images do not.
I tested shooting RAW + JPG and the good, full Rez JPG does transfer. Lesson learned.
Next thing is image processing.
I read about how Norman Seeff used to print high contrast works with a twist. He used a black stocking between the enlarger lens and paper to give a interesting softness to some of his images.
He wasn't by any means the only one to do this.
When I worked at Samy Cameras photo lab on Sunset Blvd in Hollyweird we used to do this at client request. It was really no big deal.
What was a bigger deal was our use of Agfa Portriga Rapid 111 Glossy paper. It gave a gorgeous deep walnut brown tone. We used this for may of the gallery shows we printed for various then famous photographers.
Taking the black stocking idea and borrowing tones from Portriga Rapid, it turns out, expresses pretty well how I feel about Rome.
So, here is a series of images done in an old, outdated, likely not very hip manner.
The worlds largest Roman domed building intact. Just I didn't get to the dome! Rome was not buit in a day! One day I shall return and hopefully build more inlcuding the magnificant dome which is approxiamtly 1.2m wide to scale
Rome wasn't built in a day and you'll need much more than a day to take in this timeless city. The city is a real-life collage of piazzas, open-air markets, and astonishing historic sites.
Rome is the capital of Italy and the largest and most populous city in the country. It covers an area of 1,285 square kilometres and has nearly 3 million residents.
Most Visited Tourist Attractions In Rome: The Pantheon, Trevi Fountain, Roman Forum, Spanish steps, Piazza del Campidoglio, Castel Sant’Angelo, Vatican, St. Peter’s Basilica, Colosseum, piazza Venezia, piazza Navona, piazza Barberini, piazza della Rotonda, piazza della Minerva ,piazza del Popolo etc.

"Is not this the fast that I choose [says the Lord]:
Is it not to share your bread with the hungry,
and bring the homeless poor into your house…"
- Isaiah 58:6a. 7a, which is part of today's first reading at Mass.
A delightful medieval fresco in San Lorenzo fuori le mura shows the Roman deacon saint, Lawrence, feeding the poor. One of the works of the deacons of Rome was to oversee the Church's charitable works and almsgiving. It was called 'diakonia', which is Greek for 'service'.

Today, of Italy's 35,000 Jews, nearly half call Rome home. Jews here have a uniquely Roman style of worship, and even preserve remnants of their own Judaic-Roman dialect. That's because, unlike most of the world's Jewish people, Roman Jews are neither Sephardic (descended from Spain) nor Ashkenazi (descended from Eastern Europe).
Italy's Jews came directly from the Holy Land before the Diaspora, first arriving in Rome in the second century b.c. as esteemed envoys, and then, after Rome invaded Judaea in the first century a.d., as POWs sold into slavery.
