Tonight’s view on my return to my chamber above the rooftops.
About this blog…
“This blog is like a fusion of the Baroque ‘salon’ with its well-tuned harpsichord around which polite society gathered for entertainment and edification and, on the other hand, a Wild West “saloon” with its out-of-tune piano and swinging doors, where everyone has a gun and something to say. Nevertheless, we try to point our discussions back to what it is to be Catholic in this increasingly difficult age, to love God, and how to get to heaven.” – Fr. Z

I use this when I travel both in these USA and abroad. Very useful. Fast enough for Zoom. I connect my DMR (ham radio) through it. If you use my link, they give me more data. A GREAT back up.

Fr. Z.,
I just wanted to add my appreciation for your photographic art — this is a *beautiful* photograph. Color, negative space, and balance make it hard to turn away from.
Thank you!
now that’s just unfair, to have this kind of view :) I get to photograph stuff like the Taj Mahony :)
I thought it was called the “Roj Mahal”
Father, thank you for that picture. I miss Rome.
What a Red! What a picture! Can i put it as wallpaper or in my blog?… Thank you!
