Oceanos são feitos de gotas D água...
Para ser ouvido, fale.
Para ser compreendido,
exponha claramente as suas idéias sem jamais
abrir mão daquelas que julga fundamentais
apenas para que os outros o aceitem.
Acima de tudo,
busque o prazer antes do sucesso,
a auto-realização antes do dinheiro,
fazer bem feito antes de pensar em obter
qualquer recompensa.
Nenhum reconhecimento externo vai substituir
a alegria de poder ser você mesmo:
"status" é comprar coisas que você não quer
com o dinheiro que você não tem a fim de
mostrar para gente que você não gosta uma
pessoa que você não é.
Nada tem graça se não for bom para o seu corpo,
leve para o seu espírito e
agradável para o seu coração.
Para conseguir,
tente sem pensar que o êxito virá logo da primeira vez.
Cuide de ter saúde, energia,
paciência e determinação para continuar
tentando quantas vezes forem necessárias.
Mas ao perceber que já fez tudo o
que pôde ou até mesmo um pouco além,
mude de alvo para não se tornar
em vez de um vitorioso,
apenas mais um teimoso.
Para poder recomeçar sempre,
perdoe-se pelos fracassos e erros que cometer,
aprenda com eles e, à partir deles,
programe suas próximas ações.
Nunca se deixe iludir que será possível
fazer tudo num dia só ou quando
tiver todos os recursos:
tal dia nunca virá.
Para manter-se motivado, sonhe.
Para realizar, planeje,
pensando grande e fazendo pequeno,
um pouco a cada dia e todos os dias um pouco,
porque são pequenas gotas d água que fazem todo grande oceano...

“O queixo atado, a velha doma gaúcha
'son cosas brujas’ qual ponteio de guitarra,
o tempo se vai, um costeio mais
no bagual que sai e esbarra,
outra sova e já se tem pingo pras garras...”
Trecho de “Doma gaúcha”, de Anomar Danúbio Vieira
Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil
Way up near the top of the canyon there's a broad meadow. This area clearly gets more moisture than the rest of the canyon, there are grasses and trees. There's also a tremendous view across the Tularosa Basin. That's White Sands National Monument in the distance.
My best capture of snow, but really my preferred!! 2 tracks, one friend, warped sun, white everywhere!! I love this shot, I think I'm going to enlarge it and frame it on my house wall!!

Según la Wikipedia, "Reñaca es un balneario de 1,3 km de extensión en Viña del Mar, Chile. Está ubicado en la desembocadura del estero del mismo nombre. Este balneario del Litoral Central es conocido por ser un importante centro de una animada vida nocturna, en particular durante el verano. Cuenta con una excelente infraestructura hotelera y turística."
Particularmente prefiero Viña, pero he de reconocer que sus playas son espectaculares.
According to Wikipedia, "Reñaca is a resort of 1,3 km from extension in Viña del Mar, Chile. Located in same name tideland river mouth, this resort is known for being an important animated night life center, mainly on summer. It owns an excellent hotel and tourist infrastructure."
In my opinion, I don't enjoy much that night life and I prefer Viña del Mar but I must admit that its beaches are spectacular.
Horsetail Falls in the Columbia River Gorge during the recent cold snap. This gorge always transforms in the most amazing ways during such weather and I was afraid we were going to miss the opportunity this year as it takes about three good days of sub-30 degree weather to pull this off. Lo and behold things froze up last week, probably for the only time until next Winter. It also corresponded quite nicely with my one day off that week, so in spite of the dozen other things I needed to get done, we drove out to the Gorge for a few hours to bask in the icy wonderland. I had just received a pair of Yaktrax for Christmas, so with those strapped on these icy rocks were much easier to navigate.
Taken with a Hasselblad 500C and Fuji Velvia 50 slide film.

...but I believe in it...
"Tanto tempo fa, nel Regno Sotterraneo, dove la bugia e il dolore non hanno significato, viveva una Principessa che sognava il Mondo degli Umani, sognava il cielo azzurro, la brezza lieve e la lucentezza del sole. Un giorno, traendo in inganno i suoi guardiani, fuggì. Ma appena fuori i raggi del sole la accecarono cancellando così la sua memoria. La Principessa dimenticò chi fosse e da dove provenisse. Il suo corpo patì il freddo, la malattia, il dolore e dopo qualche anno morì. Nonostante tutto il Re fu certo che l'anima della Principessa avrebbe un giorno fatto ritorno, magari in un altro corpo, in altro luogo, in un altro tempo. L'avrebbe aspettata fino al suo ultimo respiro, fino a che il mondo non avesse smesso di girare."

This is another picture taken this morning at sunrise near Sankathi Ghat along river Ganga in Varanasi (Benaras).
It belongs to the series of a new topic about wrestlers in Varanasi which I am showing here with no PP work for a change.
This is Vinod who is also trained by a Russian coach, he has also a little "shop" down the ghat where the gym is standing where he is selling pan, thea, water and sweets.
The gym where we did those pictures is facing river Ganga which gave this vivid colors so early in the morning.
Pehlwan means wrestler in Hindi.

Il villaggio dei pescatori visti dalla baracca in legno "Il paradiso" dove veniva offerto in vendita un vinello dolce passato per Lacrima Christi,
dopo un bicchierino la discesa per il precario sentiero era anche più a rischio della salita ma la vista valeva la pena !
Si scorgono sulla piazzetta le attrezzature turistiche che poi trasformeranno definitivamente il villaggio.

“Aquí están las cabezadas
con su testera y fiador;
la manea, el maniador
y las dos riendas platiadas;
el pretal, con sus caladas
estrellas, que con primor,
van de mayor a menor
del encuentro hasta el lomillo,
y que, en mi escuro, su brillo
era un puro resplandor...”

While driving the brother-in-laws van with all of us returning back to Tokyo from a wonderful ski/onsen vacation, I noticed the reflection of the road in my lenses while looking in the rearview mirror.
Pulled out my trusty Canon IXY 910 (always on my person these days!), quickly set to macro mode and snapped the reflection off my Oakley Half-Jackets (lenses are actually this color).
Non-HDR shot taken on the mountain road heading out of Kusatsu, Japan.
I begin to like more and more the black and white images!
Orlando Rebelo (a portuguese photographer) once said "There is something about black and white that color cannot transmit... I think that colors distract us from the essential on an image".
I think this is the goal on a good black&white photo!
What a great quote and what a great photographer!

Streaming Train in a Urban London UK Underground station...very quiet for a change, apart from a lost ghost train architecture. City of London Urban, Metropolitan
The London Underground is a metro system serving a large part of Greater London and neighbouring areas of Essex, Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire in England. It is the world's oldest underground railway system. It is usually referred to as the Underground or the Tube - the latter deriving from the shape of the system's deep-bore tunnels - although about 55% of the network is above ground.
The earlier lines of the present London Underground network, which were built by various private companies, became part of an integrated transport system (which excluded the main line railways) in 1933 with the creation of the London Passenger Transport Board (LPTB), more commonly known by its shortened name: "London Transport".
The Underground has 268 stations and approximately 400 km (250 miles) of track,[1] making it the longest metro system in the world by route length,[4] and one of the most served in terms of stations. In 2007, over one billion passenger journeys were recorded.
Transport for London (TfL) was created in 2000 as the integrated body responsible for London's transport system. It replaced London Regional Transport. It assumed control of London Underground Limited in July 2003.
The London Underground's 11 lines are the Bakerloo line, Central line, Circle line, District line, Hammersmith & City line, Jubilee line, Metropolitan line, Northern line, Piccadilly line, Victoria line, and Waterloo & City line.
Until 2007 there was a twelfth line, the East London line, but this has closed for rebuilding work. It will be reopen as part of London Overground - part of the National Rail network and eventually connected to its North London Line - in 2010.
The Underground has been featured in many movies and television shows, including Sliding Doors, Tube Tales and Neverwhere. The London Underground Film Office handles over 100 requests per month. The Underground has also featured in music such as The Jam's "Down in the Tube Station at Midnight" and in literature such as the graphic novel V for Vendetta. Popular legends about the Underground being haunted persist to this day.
The Underground currently sponsors and contributes to the arts via its Platform for Art and Poems on the Underground projects. Poster and billboard space (and in the case of Gloucester Road tube station, an entire disused platform) is given over to artwork and poetry to "create an environment for positive impact and to enhance and enrich the journeys of ... passengers".[
The London Underground's 11 lines are the Bakerloo line, Central line, Circle line, District line, Hammersmith & City line, Jubilee line, Metropolitan line, Northern line, Piccadilly line, Victoria line, and Waterloo & City line. Until 2007 there was a twelfth line, the East London line, but this has closed for conversion work and will be transferred to the London Overground when it reopens in 2010.
Transport for London (TfL) was created in 2000 as the integrated body responsible for London's transport system. It replaced London Regional Transport. It assumed control of London Underground Limited in July 2003.
TfL is part of the Greater London Authority and is constituted as a statutory corporation regulated under local government finance rules.[22] It has three subsidiaries: London Transport Insurance (Guernsey) Ltd., the TfL Pension Fund Trustee Co. Ltd. and Transport Trading Ltd (TTL). TTL has six wholly-owned subsidiaries, one of which is London Underground Limited.

The Alps (French: Alpes; German: Alpen; Italian: Alpi; Romansh: Alps; Slovene: Alpe) is the name for one of the great mountain range systems of Europe, stretching from Austria and Slovenia in the east, through Italy, Switzerland, Liechtenstein and Germany to France in the west. The word "Alps" was taken via French from Latin Alpes (meaning "the Alps"), which may be influenced by the Latin words albus (white) or altus (high) or more likely a Latin rendering of a Celtic or Ligurian original.
The highest mountain in the Alps is Mont Blanc, at 4,808 metres (15,774 ft), on the Italian-French border. All the main peaks of the Alps can be found in the list of mountains of the Alps and list of Alpine peaks by prominence.
The Alps are generally divided into the Western Alps and the Eastern Alps. The division is along the line between Lake Constance and Lake Como, following the Rhine. The Western Alps are higher, but their central chain is shorter and curved; they are located in Italy, France and Switzerland. The Eastern Alps (main ridge system elongated and broad) belong to Austria, Germany, Italy, Liechtenstein, Slovenia and Switzerland.
The Alps are a classic example of what happens when a temperate area at lower altitude gives way to higher elevation terrain. Elevations around the world which have cold climates similar to those found in polar areas have been called alpine. A rise from sea level into the upper regions of the atmosphere causes the temperature to decrease. The effect of mountain chains on prevailing winds is to carry warm air belonging to the lower region into an upper zone, where it expands in volume at the cost of a proportionate loss of heat, often accompanied by the precipitation of moisture in the form of snow or rain.
A cold December evening on top of the cliffs looking down on to the beach. There were three people standing there waiting for the sun to go down and I thought the image looked kinda cool.

On monday morning i went to the bay to take some shots of the stormy waves leftover from sunday's madness. After a while it dawned on me that the wind was switching direction, cleaning up the swell, and wtf was i doing standing there with a camera when i should be out there surfing!
Ran home and got into my wetsuit in record time :)

u pa avestruz, u pa potro,
y que, como dijo el otro,
«de güenas, bolean solas».
De torzal fino las piolas,
y las piegras del Tandil,
apuesto aquí que entre mil
no hay otras como las mías,
pues las mesmas tres marías
son como al sol un candil...”

In back of the Stage Harbor Lighthouse at Chatham, Cape Cod. This landing is hidden away a bit on Sears Neck, at the end of a series of winding roads. Though I grew up here I've only just been there for the first time this year. Very odd to find new places in a town only four miles on each side and surrounded by ocean.

8:02 AM, on a Monday: Antwerp-Central railway station platform 6. Just one passenger.
The vast (185 metres long, 66 metres wide and 44 metres high) curved roof iron and glass trainshed is designed by Clement van Bogaert and constructed between 1895 and 1899. The station is widely regarded as the finest example of railway architecture in Belgium. It is often referred to as a "Railway Cathedral".
View on black. See my other photos of Antwerp Central station.

Qualcosa c'è
che ti fa paura
e rende incerto il tuo volo.
Sarà l'idea
che il tempo si consuma
e l'improvviso sei solo,
come un attore hai scelto il ruolo
di chi è sicuro di se,
ma sai benissimo che la tua arte
è nella parte fragile di te.
Cerca angoli di cielo
fantastiche visioni,
per dare nuova luce ai tuoi occhi
lasciando entrare tutte le emozioni
senza far finta che l'amore non ti tocchi.
Prendi tutti i suoni
dal frastuono di ogni giorno
cerca tra la gente le parole
segui la tua vita
non lasciarla andare
ora è il momento
Perchè non c'è
nessuna differenza
se vinci o se perdi,
quello che conta
che ha più importanza
essere quello che sei.
Cerca angoli di cielo
fantastiche visioni,
per dare nuova luce ai tuoi occhi;
lasciando entrare tutte le emozioni
senza far finta che il dolore non ti tocchi.
Prendi tutti i suoni
dal frastuono di ogni giorno
cerca tra la gente le parole
ama la tua vita
non lasciarla andare
ora è il momento
Prendi tutti i suoni
dal frastuono di ogni giorno
cerca in ogni notte un po' di sole
ama la tua vita
non lasciarla andare
ora è il momento
non aspettare
