Cyclist's journey continues,
Seated man's unknown."

This photo-of-the-day is from Athens, Greece. It was taken at the foot of the ancient Acropolis. There's a story here, but I didn't pause to learn it. Neither did the cyclist. Therein lies another story.

"Alone 'midst ruins,
Time's river flows endlessly,
Parthenon's witness."
This photo-of-the-day is from Athens, Greece. It shows the Parthenon, the most crowded tourist spot in Greece. When we take tourist photos, we work hard to compose shots with the tourists out of the frame of the camera, unless we are deliberately taking photos of the tourists themselves. It's complicated. But I was happy with this shot showing "L" all by herself in front of the Parthenon.
A bonus photo, showing the side of the Parthenon, is after the jump. You'll see what I mean about the crowds. I wanted them in this second shot.
Recently, I've been meddling in the City of Richardson's efforts to update its Comprehensive Plan. To decide who is off the rails—them, me, or maybe neither—I've decided I need to back up (to first principles), or pull up (for a birds-eye view), to understand just what the City thinks is included in this effort.
