Re: Painter's Corner...

I think that's precisely it. Especially back in the old days, when "Canon" stood for something used in warfare, "Olympus" for the dwellings of the gods, and the word "camera" meant "room" or "chamber", there must have been many people who came to that spot with their aisles and drawing pads to sketch and to paint the scene from this spot, which is so easy to reach and yet of such an inspiring beauty.

I wish you also a very happy and prosperous New Year, Jane! :-)

All the best,

Eric
