A view of a common household task radiates against the back drop the startlingly beautiful Dinaric Alps. A wall embraces the "old city" in Dubrovnik, where no vehicles are allowed. Only steep, etched staircases and narrow walkways help move people from place to place. I caught my breath after a ten minute climb, then aimed my lens at the "new city," where homes speckled the mountainside. But suddenly, a bird squawked by, and when I looked up...I never thought laundry could look so good...
