The Praça do Comércio (Commerce Square) is on the bank of the Tagus river. the square is commonly known as Terreiro do Paço (Palace Yard), because it was the location of the Paços da Ribeira (Royal Ribeira Palace) until it was destroyed by the great 1755 Lisbon earthquake.
Araucaria angustifolia (Pinheiro-brasileiro, pinheiro-do-paraná)
"Árvore símbolo do estado do Paraná, a araucária é reconhecida pela sua beleza, função ecológica e utilidade para o homem. Apesar de todas estas qualidades, é uma espécie em extinção. Seu porte é bastante grande, chegando aos 50 metros de altura. Diferencia-se de outros pinheiros pela sua estrutura em candelabro e pelos seus saborosos pinhões.
Quando jovem, torna-se excelente árvore de natal. Sua estrutura de candelabro vai se formando vagarosamente com o tempo. Os indivíduos podem ser machos ou fêmeas, não sendo hermafroditas como muitos outros pinheiros. As fêmeas produzem pinhas que amadurecem lentamente e são compostas de numerosos pinhões. Os pinhões são sementes grandes e servem de alimento para diversas espécies, entre aves, animais selvagens e domésticos, inclusive o homem. Sua madeira presta-se para os mais diversos feitios, não sendo dura. Esta espécie é indicada para o reflorestamento de toda a região sul". (...)

Cada dia tem seu pôr do Sol ...
em cada lugar ou em cada angulo que voce olhar...
vai encontrar um por do sol...
mas será diferente de todos que estarão olhando...
mesmo o sol sendo único ...
importa onde voce esta ,
não com quem voce esta...
para ver o seu sol, e ter a sua despedida...
esta imagem será única na sua alma...
Mark is seen here on the final approach to the Allt Scheicheach bothy. We had cycled for a couple of hours to reach this point. Soon we would dump our bikes in readiness for a hike up the remote Beinn Dearg. Being Early December daylight hours would be limited so it was no surprise that we returned back along this section in twilight and of course it was pitch black by the time the car was reached. In fact on the return Mark fell off twice as he skidded in the dimly lit snow. I didn't laugh that much honest.
uma maravilha do universo é sentar-se na beira da praia e esperar este sol maravilhoso ir nascedo de dentro desta imensa lagoa dos patos... é indescritivel o momento que se pode registrar atravez de uma simples fotografia...

Por do sol aquele momento no dia, em que o ceu por magia se torna cor do fogo e da lugar ao azul intenso da noite
Project 365 // Day 204
Another shot inspired by the amazing show, Dexter. I love creating moody, and dark scenes like this – for me, they create a sense of mystery. What is it? Well if I told you, it would ruin the fun... but let's just say that it was not nearly as fun cleaning up. :)

On our stay in Wales we took a trip to Aberglasney Gardens where it poured with rain all day with the odd break of a few minutes. These are the result of very trying conditions with very poor light.
This is a 379 seconds exposure in a very cloudy night which was a shame, so no startrails on this one :(, in a pitch black place perfect for this kind of photography. The Menhir was illuminated in 3-4 intervals of 3 secs by a flashlight so we've got enough light to be able to see the texture of the stone.
In Photoshop I layered the composition, one layer with a cold white balance for the sky and one as shot for the Menhir and ground, applied the mask and voila!
Made at the beginning of the 4th and middle of the 3rd millennium b.C., on a chronological age known as "Eborense megalithic era", this megalithic monument, phallic shaped, was erected in a lowland near to Monsaraz's hill, in a isolated way both in harmony with the surroundings.
With almost 5,6m height and 1 of diameter, was discovered in 1969 by Henrique Leonor Pina and José Pires Gonçalves, laid on floor. By the own initiative, the menhir was restored and re-erected in that decade.
With no decorations in its surface, it seems to belong to a very particular megalithic era, represented by many menhirs in the region, like Almendres and de central post of the Xerês Chromelec
It's consider the most notable isolated menhir of Iberic's Peninsula and one of the most notable in whole Europe.

"Fim do dia"
Arnaldo Antunes e Paulo Miklos
Demora tanto, demora tanto pra crescer
Pra depois de uma hora pra outra morrer
Tem que mamar, tem que comer e beber
Deixar vir e ir sofrimento e prazer
Não há o que lamentar
Quando chega o fim do dia
Um cara que anda tem que chegar em algum lugar
Um cara que trabalha trabalha trabalha deve se cansar
O cara estuda tanto e ainda tem tanto pra aprender
Passa o tempo e fica mais fácil esquecer
Não há o que lamentar
Quando chega o fim do dia
Não há o que lamentar
Quando chega o fim do dia
Se despede da sua dor
Diz adeus à sua alegria
Não há o que lamentar
Quando chega o fim do dia

"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)

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.
