Dunas; a força da Natureza.

Algarve

In Lisbon there are many regatas, as portughese remain true sailors and keep traditions. Here the sail boats pass under the "Ponte sobre o Tejo" ( this bridge is often compared to the one in S. Francisco and has changed names 3 times), it links Lisbon to the South (and to the best beaches).

Enjoy!

Agli amici italiani BUON FERRAGOSTO!! To all Happy High Summer's Day!

Question: Living it very up today, for this may be your last day alive" has many meaning.

 

Are you violating all the rules of conscience, morality, society just to have a good time each day, in case you die today and there is not Heaven or Hell?

 

Are you living very close to your God and spreading his love amongst the rest of us humans you daily contact with, trying to make their day better, for today may be your last chance to do that?

 

Remedy: Lots of love from across all corners of Flickr flowed my way yesterday. For that and each of your continued support here, I thank you much

- Do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry for itself -

I was wandering around the garden this morning thinking how boring it is at the moment when I spied this little bug on a blade of grass. It looks like the same type of Harlequin bug that I posted a couple of weeks back but a much less iridescent colour. These are not cropped and were taken with my 75-300 mm and 50 mm lens and the Kenko extension tubes.

Actually I'm not really sure how one feels corny, but my brain was going to explode with corn-related puns if I didn't get this thing posted.

500 views in 5 days, thank you all so much, friends!

Grazie a tutti

 

What a moment. I was going in my kitchen when..... ha!! I took the "decisive moment".

 

Andavo in cucina a farmi un caffè dopo aver passato una notte intera a studiare e fotografare. Avevo la fotocamera a tracolla, si prospettava una splendida Alba (infatti, in questi giorni la pubblicherò : ) guardo distrattamente verso la finestra e noto i due piccioncini che amoreggiano tranquilli sul tetto della casa di fronte, proprio sopra il comignolo..... ho fatto una serie di scatti in successione, poi è venuto fuori un bacio!! evidentemente questi due si amano alla follia.

Escape

 

Feel no pain, but my life ain't easy

I know I'm my best friend

No one cares, but I'm so much stronger

I'll fight until the end

 

To escape from the true false world

Undamaged destiny

Can't get caught in the endless circle

Ring of stupidity

 

Out for my own, out to be free

One with my mind, they just can't see

No need to hear things that they say

Life's for my own, to live my own way

 

Rape my mind and destroy my feelings

Don't tell me what to do

I don't care now 'cause I'm on my side

And I can see through you

 

Feed my brain with your so-called standards

Who says that I ain't right?

Break away from your common fashion

See through your blurry sight

 

Out for my own, out to be free

One with my mind, they just can't see

No one to hear things that they say

Life's for my own, to live my own way

 

See them try to bring the hammer down

No damn chains can hold me to the ground

 

Life's for my own, to live my own way

Life's for my own, to live my own way

 

§ § §

 

Non sento dolore, ma la mia vita non è facile

So di essere il mio migliore amico

Non gliene importa a nessuno, ma io sono molto più forte

E combatterò fino alla fine

 

Per fuggire da questo mondo davvero falso

Destino integro

Non posso rimanere bloccato nel cerchio senza fine

Anello di stupidità

 

Me ne vado per la mia strada, per essere libero

Tutt’ uno con la mia mente, loro non possono capire

Non ho bisogno di sentire le cose che dicono

La vita è mia, e la vivo come voglio io

 

Stuprate la mia mente e distruggete i miei sentimenti

Non ditemi cosa devo fare

Adesso non m’ importa, perché vivo per i fatti miei

E posso vedere dentro di voi

 

Nutro la mia mente con i vostri cosiddetti standard

Chi dice che io non abbia ragione

Fuggo dalle vostre mode comuni

Vedo attraverso i vostri sguardi confusi

 

Me ne vado per la mia strada, per essere libero

Tutt’ uno con la mia mente, loro non possono capire

Non ho bisogno di sentire le cose che dicono

La vita è mia, e la vivo come voglio io

 

Li vedo che cercano di soggiogarmi

Nessuna maledetta catena può tenermi a terra

 

La vita è mia, e la vivo come voglio io

La vita è mia, e la vivo come voglio io

 

Metallica, 1984

Lower Bond Falls Paulding Michigan. We had to walk a half a mile through deep snow to get to the falls. It was well worth it because we were the only people there. It looked like a glacier with all the blue ice and the water running through it. It was one of the most beautiful sights we have ever seen.

As I looked at the beautifull sea, the white,flowers, seabreeze and all the hope that goes with it , somehow in my mind it came a song by Ray Charles "here we go again" ... in these days of rush happiness and love are to be savoured in the "now" ... taken somewhere in the coast near Lisbon, Portugal.

To all of you a nice week !!

I apolozige to my contacts if I do not comment as I should kind of busy times.

Passeggiata in mezzo ai boschi: questo angolo mi ha affascinata per l' atmosfera un pò magica che vi si respirava.
