I'm still here. Thank you for asking!

Torino (Italy)

Many so thoughtful Pbasers have written to me to ask if all was fine with me, since I have not posted any picture for a rather long time.
I’m really moved by your kindness, so I have taken this quick self-portrait to show you, and maybe also to myself, that I’m still here, more or less alive and kicking.
You see, the matter is that I’m 90 years old and my physical condition is not the one it used to be. I have lost my mobility, so it’s a hard for me taking good photos, if I have ever taken good photos.
I must keep the camera with only one hand and to stay in balance, since I’m afraid to fall if I don’t keep firmly my walking stick.
But I still enjoy browsing over PBase and to see so many wonderful photos which still allow me to travel virtually all over the world.
I’m always happy to read your messages, by the way, even though I don’t answer regularly.
I’m also afraid to bore all my patient visitors showing always the same images taken from my balcony, but my horizons have become quite limited by now.
Life is what it is and I cannot complain of mine, which has led me until now and still allows me to enjoy it.

Lovely to see you again, Bruna: you look very well indeed. And the world within your living space is a very interesting place as you have shown often in your many galleries. An invitation to glance through them shows your keen eye for seeing the beauty all around you. Stay well, and do keep in touch with your Pbase friends.
