Desde quando me mudei que tento tirar uma foto da Igreja do Bonfim, porém tem uns fios/cabos do demo que ficam na frente, sabe? AHSUAHUSHSUAHA Dai fiz malabarismo para conseguir essa foto e ainda tive que editar bastante para tentar manter a qualidade (o que não gosto n.n'), fora esse pedaço de fio passando ali por cima, né, só para me deixar irritada, mas enfim ela está aí, eu gostei bastante e eu espero muito que vocês também gostem :D
Ótima semana para vocês (:

Trying to find some last minute inspirations for this week's topic “fill the frame". It still does not really comply with the filling-the-frame-rules, but I hope you guys don't mind too much

Ilha de Itaparica
Bahia
Brasil
A mais famosa Ilha da Baía de Todos os Santos, Itaparica é dividida em dois municípios: Vera Cruz e Itaparica. Do tupi "cerca de pedras", não à toa a Ilha, que é cercada por uma barreira de recifes, foi assim batizada. Com uma vasta vegetação tropical e um rico patrimônio cultural e natural, a paisagem encanta pela beleza e riqueza histórica.
As praias, que circundam os 240km² de seu entorno, oferecem opções de mergulhos, caminhadas, cavalgadas, passeios de bicicleta, aventuras em caiaques e grandes piscinas naturais de águas calmas, ideais para relaxar, curtindo o sol e a brisa dos ventos. Se você procura aventura com boa dose de sossego, a Ilha de Itaparica é a pedida ideal.

Not too many clouds to stir interest in the scene, but architecture and a friendly atmosphere go a long way to providing inspiration to press that shutter button!
Urban development of the banks of the Tagus river (the Ribeira) was given a definitive impulse in the early 16th century, when King Manuel I built a new royal residence – the Ribeira Palace – by the river, outside the city walls. The area was further developed with the building of a port, shipbuilding facilities (the Ribeira das Naus), the Casa da Índia and other administrative buildings that regulated the commerce between Portugal and other parts of Europe and its colonies in Africa, Asia and the Americas.
On 1 November 1755, during the reign of King Dom José I, a great earthquake followed by a tsunami and fire destroyed most of Lisbon, including the Ribeira Palace and other buildings by the river. José I's Prime Minister, the Marquis of Pombal, coordinated a massive rebuilding effort led by Portuguese architect Eugénio dos Santos. He designed a large, rectangular square in the shape of a "U", open towards the Tagus. The buildings have galleries on their ground floors, and the arms of the "U" end in two large towers, reminiscent of the monumental tower of the destroyed Ribeira Palace, still vivid in the architectural memory of the city. His plan was realised almost completely, although decorative details were changed and the east tower of the square and the Augusta Street Arch were only finished in the 19th century.
The square was named Praça do Comércio, the Square of Commerce, to indicate its new function in the economy of Lisbon. The symmetrical buildings of the square were filled with government bureaux regulating customs and port activities. The centrepiece of the ensemble was the equestrian statue of King José I, inaugurated in 1775 in the centre of the square. This bronze statue, the first monumental statue dedicated to a King in Lisbon, was designed by Joaquim Machado de Castro, Portugal's foremost sculptor of the time.

Because I've hardly picked up my camera in days, I've been going through my archives looking for forgotten or overlooked "good ones". I'm not promising to start another 365 project in January, but I really do need to spend some more time with my camera. I have two more images that need to be shot for the 114 Pictures in 2014 project so I know I will shoot those, but I really do want to get out more and practice what I love doing.
Matadeiro é uma praia localizada no sul da Ilha de Santa Catarina, em Florianópolis. É voltada para o Oceano Atlântico e separada da praia da Armação por um rio de água salobra. O mar gelado com ondas de medianas a grandes, de boa formação, atraem surfistas. Do final da praia, sai uma das trilhas para a praia da Lagoinha do Leste.
O nome Matadeiro é muito antigo, provém da época em que era permitido caçar baleias.
Os pescadores montavam suas armadilhas na Armação e as matavam no Matadeiro, daí o nome das duas praias. Localizada entre as praias da Armação e Lagoinha do Leste, a praia do Matadeiro é relativamente tranquila, com acesso somente a pé, cerca de 200 metros, depois de atravessar o rio que vem da Lagoa do Peri.
O caminho pitoresco e agreste atrai muitos turistas durante o verão, especialmente surfistas que fogem do agito das praias tradicionais em busca de boas ondas e areia calma.
Inacessível para carros, a praia ainda conserva seus morros cobertos pela mata nativa. É um convite para os apreciadores da natureza.

pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Praia_do_Matadeiro
----------------------------------------------
Praia do Matadeiro est une plage et une localité de la municipalité de Florianópolis, au Brésil. Elle se situe au sud-est de l'île de Santa Catarina, entre deux pointes rocheuses, dans la prolongation de la praia da Armação.
Tout comme cette dernière, elle a connu une forte activité par le passé, liée à la chasse à la baleine. La praia do Matadeiro était le lieu de l'abattage et du découpage des animaux, dont les morceaux était ensuite amenés à la praia da Armação pour en extraire l'huile. Il ne reste aucun vestige de cette activité.
La plage est peu fréquentée par les touristes et ne possède pas d'infrastructure touristique à proprement parler.

"Shisen-dō (詩仙堂) is a Buddhist temple of the Sōtō Zen sect in Sakyō-ku, Kyoto, Japan. It is registered as a historic site of Japan. It stands on the grounds of its founder, the Edo period intellectual Ishikawa Jōzan (1583–1672), who established the temple in 1641.
A room in the main temple displays portraits of thirty-six Chinese poets. The selection of the poets was based on the opinion of Hayashi Razan. The portraits were executed by Kanō Tan'yū. This and some other parts of the building date to the time of Ishikawa Jōzan.
The temple's gardens are considered masterworks of Japanese gardens. One of them includes a device called a sōzu, a type of shishi-odoshi designed to scare away wild animals such as deer by making a loud noise. Water trickles into a bamboo tube, and when it reaches a certain level, it upsets the balance of the tube. The tube tips over on a pivot, discharging the water, and turns upright, striking a rock and emitting a loud clapping noise." (Wikipedia)
