Aurel's laurels

These are experiments. I select a picture not from google earth but from the particular photographer's collection. Seems to work well.


This is above Medellin where I went so many years ago.

We stayed in a tall hotel in the centre of town and there was a pool on the roof. What impressed me was this huge slab of land, flat but at an angle to the horizontal city centre, the whole slab a huge suburb of tiled roofs.

This is after a local cargo plane crash. Recently Medellin has been the centre of the cocaine trade of course, but when we were there it was famous for knock-off textiles and records. I bought an excellent copy of "All Things Must Pass" for pennies.
