No much light this time of the year - everything seems dark and grey. But fortunately yesterday was the shortest day, now we are waiting for the light to return :)

Young girls are waiting for the next opening in front of the theater. Inside, boys are holding a dance like a school festival.

My thoughts & prayers go out to all those that have lost loved ones & hope & strength to the survivors of the Haiti Earthquake.

I'm so sad. My grandma will die in the next days or weeks...

This shot I took in her garden, some weeks ago...

@ all: Thanks a lot for your great comments and your empathy! I lost my grandma in December last year (2009) and both guinea pigs (2008 + 2009) :o(

But I lost my little guinea pig friend last week, so I can't flickr at the moment. I'm too sad :o(

Porque todos os dias são dos amigos...

Apesar de toda a gravidade, a cirurgia foi bem sucedida, sem a necessidade do

dreno no fígado, o que tornou o ato menos traumático, minha mãe encontra-se em estado estável ainda no CTI e sem previsão de alta. Lúcida e de bem com a vida, agora é dar muitas alegrias para que seus dias tornem-se mais agradáveis.

Obrigado pelo carinho e pelas palavras aqui manifestadas,

agradeço com uma rosa para cada um de vocês.

boa noite pessoas do bem.

A place I have wanted to see for a long time. A wonderful day out meeting old friends again and making new ones. With Mars Lander, Miss Lightyear and Skankypants :)

Sandhill cranes have migrated from the North all the way to the South West for eons. They use the thermals to soar higher than most Raptors to go over mountains. This one took a late flight as the light is just about to finish for the day.

This is dedicated to galevine2, for the great testimonial she wrote. A local FLICKR friend and her ability to capture the local cultural is truly the best (she just posted some stunning Native American Pow Wow shots). So this is the last native Poppy I was able to get in this very short season of ours.

Attracted by the stunning colourful lights from a distance among many nearby stalls and this I find ...

kuala-lumpur.ws: "Ask anyone who’s been to Malaysia about Petaling Street and they will cite it as a shopper’s haven, albeit in a different league when compared to its more glamourous counterparts, Bukit Bintang and KLCC.

A well-known shopping district, the whole area transforms into a lively and vibrant night market after dark, with hundreds of stalls selling all kinds of stuff at dirt-cheap prices, making it the most happening night market in the city.

Petaling Street is chock-full of shops and stalls selling goods and food. A signboard warning against the sale of imitation goods provides an interesting – even ironic – contrast as the whole street is practically littered with fake branded items. Handbags, watches, trainers, clothing – you name it, they’ve got it."

Spectacular display of items in various shapes lighted in beautiful colours, these lamp shades are for bargain sales at Petaling Street, Chinatown, Kuala Lumpur.

Boundaries for 2021... Are we in or out? Is this Meta? Are there any boundaries left, or is everything just boundaries? (Note: Weeds thrive at boundaries.)

So I googled big shoes, and got nothing. But THEN I googled

This is for a event which theme is "box". Thus I tried my best to build a lego box with bricks. The reason I choose 6985 is simple: I own this set :p. The concept of my work is: Imagination from the box. I built a new spaceship with limited parts because I don't wanna display the original one :)

Unfortunately I cannot found the black classic space minifig, so I used blue one instead on the cover.
