I always smile whenever I see old folks sitting and resting on the bench. As though they already had the time of their life. Reminiscing the path they took, enriched with experiences that made them stronger. But I guess having a friend by their side made life easier.
Lean on me
by Bill Withers
Sometimes in our lives we all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow
Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you don't let show
Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
If there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me
So just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on
Lean on me when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
Lean on me...
The leaning towers, or Torres Kio (also a.k.a. Puerta de Europa) on Paseo de la Castellana near the Plaza de Castilla in Madrid, Spain - Jan 2020
***
From Esmadrid.com:
"The two Kio Towers are one of the most famous elements of the Madrid skyline. These two buildings have been officially named “The Door to Europe,” as they can easily be noticed for their location: the heart of Plaza de Castilla, their height: 377 feet high; and their architecture: They are two leaning towers, symmetrical with the La Castellana axis, forming a type of futuristic door defying the laws of gravity.
Also known as the Kio Towers (the name of the main shareholding company of the development group), the construction of the buildings started in 1990, using the design of the John Burgee Architects New York Studio, and was finished in the fall of 1995. The sides of the square bases of the towers are 115 feet. The towers lean at an angle of 14.3 degrees each.
Me and my partner, love, best friend.... Been thru it all together and still holding on. Times are changing, but my love for you remains the same.

One of my attempts at the "Smile on Saturday" theme "flora SOOC".
Shot with a Carl Zeiss "S-Planar 120 mm F 5.6" lens on a Canon EOS R5.
The town of Walcha is a timber town & there are a number of street scultpures, many carved out of wood
I liked this one, but the background was very busy, so added a texture.

Words to the Picture
A spontaneous photoshoot with my Girlfriend on a sunny Saturday afternoon. This bridge where she stands is near our home. It was perfect cuz there’s no „traffic“. We could peacefully do some shots. She was in the mood for a shooting, i needed to practice a little with portrait photography .. a perfect combination.
A portrait shot is not that easy as some big players may let it look like. Got to get the right emotion, pose or background. Pay attention of the background, you may get the first two perfectly but if you got a bad background, the picture is ruined.
In advance
