Yes I know the feeling John. Living about 5 miles from the center of Copenhagen I almost should be punished for using it that little. And everytime I wonder where all the years have gone without taking care of my city
But beware, to keep seeing the light on your way at work.
I reminds me of the the first times I went alone to Venice, people standing on their way to work in the Vapporetta (waterbus) down Canal Grand, reading newspapers while they were passing perhaps 100 of the mos remarkable buildings the world has ever seen(even though its in another way, its the same princip)....the wonders are often just around our feets, but do we notice, when we get used to it? We just have to!

Ps. while walking in Venice with Hasselblad and tripod, is something, the "luck by wire" is definetly something else, and the ultimate experience is when you feel you just catch a shadow of the ghost of life, if the picture create something else than the picture itself, so to speak, that is sort of the greatest challenge of all, catching the spirit, and then its funny and sometimes rewarding trying too.
