"Nature is a temple in which living pillars
Sometimes let slip indistinct words;
There, man passes through forests of symbols
Which observe him with a familiar gaze.
Like longs echoes that, in the distance, blend
Into a shadowy and profound whole,
Vast as the night, vast as light,
Fragrances, colors, and sounds respond to one another.
There are fragrances as fresh as the flesh of children,
As sweet as oboes, as green as prairies,
-- And others, corrupt, rich, and triumphant,
With the expansiveness of infinite things,
Like amber, musk, benzoin, and incense,
And that sing the transports of the spirit and the senses."
Original French:
Corréspondances
La Nature est un temple où de vivants piliers
Laissent parfois sortir de confuses paroles;
L'homme y passe à travers des forêts de symboles
Qui l'observent avec des regards familiers.
Comme de longs échos qui de loin se confondent
Dans une ténébreuse et profonde unité,
Vaste comme la nuit et comme la clarté,
Les parfums, les couleurs et les sons se répondent.
II est des parfums frais comme des chairs d'enfants,
Doux comme les hautbois, verts comme les prairies,
- Et d'autres, corrompus, riches et triomphants,
Ayant l'expansion des choses infinies,
Comme l'ambre, le musc, le benjoin et l'encens,
Qui chantent les transports de l'esprit et des sens.

A quiet composition, very much in the line of August Sanders. The subject is taken directly, without any tilt nor decoration. The statue is the only element that breaks simmetry and is the centre of the sight.
Una composición tranquila, en el estilo de August Sanders. La toma es directa, sin ningun tipo de inclinacion o adorno. La estatua es el único elemento que rompe la simetria y es el centro de la mirada.

The detail of cropcircle found in Pontecurone the 06/22/08 shows strange diagonal lines inside the circles, and the last circle on left side doesn't respect the simmetry, so..
I loved this famous building from the very first moment. It is a tribute to geometry and symmetry, but getting the tourists out of the composition may prove challenging.....just be patient!!
Firenze. Italia.
Florence. Italy.
And... after months... I've finally come back very motivated.
I'm so proud of this one, an award-winning photo in a very special photo contest.
Florencia. Italia.
Y... después de meses... finalmente he vuelto muy motivada.
Estoy muy orgullosa de esta foto que ganó el primer premio en un concurso muy especial.
@ "mi gente" del trabajo:
"Gracias todos los que votasteis esta foto en el concurso. Es renovador saber que has transmitido algo!... la fotografia es un poco eso, no? llegar a las personas, hacerles sentir y expresarte canalizando tu pequeño punto de vista del mundo... ya puedo decir, que al menos una vez lo he logrado :-D "
I made this long exposure on the bank of a lake in the heart of Beijing, trying to catch the simmetry in the reflection of trees and lights into the water.
La leggenda narra del capo muratore impegnato nella costruzione del Ponte che era molto preoccupato del ritardo accumulato nella stessa costruzione. Egli dunque scese a patti con il Diavolo, il quale gli consentì di completare l'opera in una sola notte in cambio della prima anima che avesse attraversato il Ponte. Il capo muratore accettò e il Ponte fu ultimato. Il capo muratore, disperato per l'imminenza del pesante tributo al Diavolo, corse dal Parroco del paese, il quale, ascoltata la confessione, escogitò uno stratagemma: fece attraversare il Ponte ad un porco, così il Diavolo si buttò nelle acque del fiume.
The legend tells of the chief mason engaged in the construction of the bridge that was very concerned about the delay in the same building. He then struck deals with the devil, which enabled him to finish the job in one night in exchange for the first soul who had crossed the bridge. The head mason accepted and the bridge was completed. The head mason, desperate for the imminence of the heavy tribute to the Devil, ran from the village priest, who heard the confession and devised a ruse: he made cross the bridge to a pig, so the devil tossed into the river.
