Looking out the windows of the Naples hotel as seen in last month’s blog, I realized that every time I visit a new place or revisit a familiar one I am curious about what I can see through the windows-anywhere and everywhere-in private homes, museums, even restaurant restrooms. It keeps me oriented especially if I am returning to take photos, well, maybe not the restrooms. Peeking out shutters or drapes I might discover some interesting things and occasionally I’ll see a few gems like the three images below.

“If a window of opportunity appears, don’t pull down the shade” says American writer, Tom Peters.
And, I couldn’t pass up this quote by comedian, Steven Wright…….. “Every so often, I like to go to the window, look up, and smile for a satellite picture.”
