Photo of the Week – July 20, 2012

This photo was taken in the vieille ville (old city) neighborhood of Geneva, Switzerland. Just a three hour train ride from Paris, Geneva is the most populated city of the Suisse romande (the french-speaking districts of western Switzerland). Light was shining through the narrow cobblestone streets as I walked along the city’s central hill towards St. Pierre’s Cathedral. I stopped for a moment and captured these fluttering Swiss and Geneva flags. The Imperial Eagle and the Key of St. Pierre appear on Geneva’s flag which has been used since the 15th century.
