"É uma coisa estranha olhar pro mundo, olhar para aqueles que deixamos pra trás. Cada um de sua maneira, bravamente, determinadamente, e tão desesperadamente. Desesperado em se aventurar, mas com medo do que vai perder quando for embora. Desesperado em ter tudo o que quer, mesmo quando nem se tem certeza do que realmente é. Desesperado para a vida ser perfeita de novo, embora perceba que nunca foi. Desesperado por um futuro melhor, se puder achar um caminho para escapar do passado.

Infelizmente, não é desse jeito que a vida funciona." :-/

I spent an hour shooting dragonflies and butterflies at the pond and after almost falling in, I finally managed to get a couple of good shots.

This female mosquito (Aedes aegypti) has filled up on human blood on May 23, 2012.
