Gutenberg and Note

It was so tempting to stop the sketch and sketch a binocular view of the golden orange moon, but I continued with Gutenberg. I was a glad I did because it reminded me of a valuable lesson. Roland

Nice sketch. I liked the allegorical touch to the presentation. Intersting (and true) how somthing seemingly unrelated can touch of our memories and emotions.

Roland,

Great resolution in both ways (the sketch and in the past).

Roland,

An excellent observation of Gutenberg. You have rendered this crater very nicely. Linda will always enlighten your shadows.
