After my visit yesterday to the exposition of Helmut Newton in Paris, I couldn't avoid the influence of this great photograph on my photo shoot in the evening
Artist: Funda
Lagoa Funda is one of 7 volcanic lakes found in the highlands on the Island of Flores in the Azores. The lakes are the result of activity in one of 3 major volcanic centers. Lagoa Funda (Deep Lagoon) sits in a ~200m deep depression. The volcanic center here was active from ~3430 to 3250 years before present (BP). The activity started with Strombolian type eruptions. Later in the eruption history groundwater was invaded by the the magma. The heating and boiling of the water in contact with the magma created explosive reactions which are called phreatomagmatic eruptions. Geologically, Lagoa Funda is a maar. These geological features are broad volcanic craters formed by these explosive phreatomagmatic eruptions. The cone around the crater is formed of ash and rock particles ejected during the explosions. The resultant rock is often referred to as a pyroclastic rock. The volcanic ash is called tuff. As often happens with maars, the ones on Flores are often filled with lakes.

CATALÀ
A l’Edat Mitjana, el domini d’Abella fou disputat entre els cavallers de Descatllar (del Catllar) I el monestir de Sant Pere de Besalú.
La primera referència escrita al nucli d’Abella és de l’any 1266. L’església dedicada a Sant Nazarí no s’esmenta fins al 1326, quan s’hi funda un benefici. En el 1367 ja s’anomena Sant Nazarí i Santa Llúcia, quan el bisbe autoritza una col.lecta per a la construcció (potser en substitució d’una capella preexistent). L’edifici actual és una nau, sense absis a la capçalera, coberta amb una volta lleugerament apuntalada. La façana principal, orientada a l’oest té un ull de bou sobre la porta d’accés i està coronada per un campanar d’espardenya. Es conserva la ferramenta de la porta, d’on surt el forrellat acabat amb forma de cap de dimoni. Va ser restaurada entre el 1996 i 1998.

Church of St. Lucia
The Descatllar (Catllar) knights and the Monastery of Saint Peter of Besalú battled for rule over Abella in the Middle Ages.
The first written reference to the village of Abella dates to 1266. The church dedicated to Saint Nazarius was not documented until 1326, when a beneficiary was designated. It was already called Saint Nazari and Saint Lucia in 1367, when the bishop authorized a collection for its construction (perhaps replacing a pre-existing chapel). The current building is a single nave with no apse and slightly pointed vault. The main façade faces west and has an oeil-de-boeuf over the main door crowned by a bell tower. The door’s original hardware, which features a bolt finished in the shape of a devil’s head, has been preserved. It was restored from 199t to 1998.

Mariana - Minas Gerais - Brasil
Em 2010 conhecendo os arredores de Mariana tivemos o desprazer de deparar com esse total desrespeito à natureza, que era a barragem de fundão que 5 anos depois veio a romper e causar o desastre ecológico tão conhecido.
Rapidamente, ao pararmos para fazer essa foto, surgiu uma pick-up importada com seguranças para, claramente, intimidar o trabalho fotográfico.
Desde a tragédia nenhuma ação preventiva em relação às demais represas foram tomadas e nenhum órgão de imprensa foi visitar as mais de 400 represas na mesma situação espalhadas pelo Brasil. Qual será a próxima?
In 2010, while exploring the surroundings of Mariana, we had the unfortunate experience of coming across this total disregard for nature—the Fundão dam, which five years later would collapse and cause the infamous ecological disaster.
As soon as we stopped to take this photo, an imported pickup truck with security personnel appeared, clearly intending to intimidate our photographic work.
Since the tragedy, no preventive actions have been taken regarding other dams, and no media outlet has visited the more than 400 dams in similar conditions scattered across Brazil. Which one will be next?
