It is raining and I am on my way to the airport hoping not to be delayed. The traffic seems light. Had two cabs fight for my fare ah that's NY. I will wake up in the morning in Rome ready to figure out how to photograph the paintings at Santa Susanna church. I have been told the Nuns run the place. Hope to be able to photograph them too.

Exit time

Sunday beings a trip to many places. It started out as a trip to the West Bank which we have been working on for almost 2 years. It is a mission for me to document the correction of Clefts in children there. I then connected with the Paulist Fathers to photograph one of their churches Santa Susanna in Rome. After the West Bank I will go to Istanbul to work on my Fine Art.

Please follow me as I go.
