Depending on how you approach reading my journal, you may or may not have noticed that I ran into some technical difficulties last week — the WordPress version went down at some point Tuesday or early Wednesday morning, but I didn’t notice until Friday, which means that three installments from the Year in Pictures didn’t post on schedule. They all popped up in a quick row on Friday when the site got restored, so if you missed them, here they are:

• Gargoyle at Sacre-Coeur
• Kerala Flower Bowl
• Military Helmet

I’ll be looking for ways to prevent such lengthy outages in the future.
