Votsalakia Samos..View from Evangelistria Monastery!
Thank you all for your comments & faves.
I met Kristina at Stokerland at St Patrick's Park, Dublin, Ireland. The Stokerland Event was part of Dublin City Councils Halloween Bram Stoker Festival. Kristina kindly posed for me. She is from Greece. I got her email and emailed a copy of the photo to her. Kristina sent me a most wonderful thank you reply. She was delighted to have her photo taken. Kristina was visiting Ireland. She said the photo is a wonderful memory of her visit to Ireland

My thoughts
A BOAT beneath a sunny sky,
Lingering onward dreamily
In an evening of July --
Children three that nestle near,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Pleased a simple tale to hear --
Long has paled that sunny sky:
Echoes fade and memories die:
Autumn frosts have slain July.
Still she haunts me, phantomwise,
Alice moving under skies
Never seen by waking eyes.
Children yet, the tale to hear,
Eager eye and willing ear,
Lovingly shall nestle near.
In a Wonderland they lie,
Dreaming as the days go by,
Dreaming as the summers die:
Ever drifting down the stream --
Lingering in the golden dream --
Life, what is it but a dream?
** Lewis Carroll
Words to the Picture
There’s still a lot of pictures left from my vacation last July/August, but it’s coming to an end. And when this time comes, overseen pictures are popping into your eyes. Just like this one and the other one from yesterday.

*- الضيق صَار يقتلني ! , يسلبني منّي !
صرتُ عَقيمة لا أنجب فرحاً :" ..
فَ غيابكِ شَرس لم يُبقي فيَّ ذرة أكسجين !
( لأنكم أيّها المَوتى تجعلوننا على الأرض نتشبّث بأشيائكم الصّغيرة , وَ نعبث بهَا ؛ لنعتصر ذاكرتنا فَ تُخرج ماتختزنه من تفَاصيل ) .
تذكرين يوم كنّا نضحكَ معاً , وَ ننام معاً , وَ نبكي معاً !
تذكرين كيفَ كنا نحضرُ التعزيات الرمادية وَ نتمتم : " غفر الله لميتكم " ؟
تعلمين أن الشيء عينهُ نَسمعه / نراه الآن ؟
لماذا رحلتِ إذاً ؟ لماذا جردتنا منّا ؟ , لماذا قتلتِ الأيام التي ضمّتنا يوماً ؟ .
- الحزن يا صديقة لا يأتي بالموتى أبداً !
نحنُ يجبُ أن نشكرَ الله كثيراً لأنّه أخذ أمانته , و لأنّه مَعنا , و لأنّه قد بعثَ لنا بُشرىً للصابرين () ""
الحياة يا صديقة لا تنتهي بِموت أحدهم , فَ القبر حياة أخرى برزخية وَ ليسَ نهاية !
- ولكنّهم رحلوا عن حكاية أيامي !
- حسناً سَأخبركِ سراً :
هيَ لم ترحل ! , هيَ تختبئ فقط وَ سنجدها في الجنّة بإذن الله ()

Os muestro mi fotografía para la exposición colectiva de la Escuela de Artes y Oficios de Vitoria, en la sala Luis de Ajuria, del 04/02 al 27/02 - 2011.
Tema: " Cosas que nunca te dije"
Modelo: Autorretrato
Como estoy en situación de prejubilado, dedico un tiempo en acudir a clases de la Escuela de Artes y Oficios de Vitoria para seguir aprendiendo en este mundo de la fotografía que falta me hace. Para el tema, se me ha ocurrido este autorretrato en pose de autoconfesión.

When you get what you want in your struggle for self,
And the world makes you long for a day,
Just go to the mirror and look at yourself,
And see what THAT man has to say.
For if it is not your father or mother or wife
Whose judgment upon you must pass.
The fellow whose verdict counts most in your life
Is the one staring back in the glass.
Some people might think you are a
straight shootin' chum and
call you a wonderful guy,
But the man in the glass says you're only a bum,
If you can't look him straight in the eye.
He's the fellow to please, never mind all the rest,
For he's with you dear up to the end. And
you have passed your most dangerous, difficult test
If the guy in the glass is your friend
You may fool the whole world down the pathway of
years, and get pats on the back as you pass.
But your final reward will be heartaches and tears
If you have cheated the man in the glass.
by Peter "Dale" Wimbrow Sr.
