THE LITTLE MOON

Moon always played an interesting role in our lives, even as a business (space, astrophysics, astrology....). Although its far enough, it can influence people and the whole nature (tides, wind....) with its magnetic and gravitic fields. Atraction or repulsion between persons although sometimes (most of the times) are "physicaly" dependent the core is really in persons spirit. As a matter of an example most of times the public/ or private sector front offices are leaded by (unfortunetly) miseducated people, and most of the times dont know how to treat a "costumer". Everyone should know the importance of a front office which reflects the company or institution first impression hence it can repulse or attract; imagine this for a country, who does have the KEY role to conduct a country front office? Or who has the power and knowledge to attract investment, to create jobs policies, to enhance innovation culture, who are these front officers???

WATER LINES

Indeed that water is our creation basis, it can be a reflection ( ) of our daily motion. It flows, sometimes floods, other just runs narrow or don't run at all.. A Jump into the water could mean that you get to your roots and finally become free for yourself. Our "leaders" seem to have taken an agenda for which they don't have the closest idea where did it came from and where will it lead us to, and sincerely i would dare to say that they care as much as the rest of the common mortals..... assumig that 90% of the persons make plans for a day, or as lot of maketeers like to put it "now"! So, maybe (just maybe) there are some considerations, examples, to recover from the dust that can point out a direction, in order to get the flow that so many aspire.

WHAT LIES BEHIND THE CLOUD

Every end of day should be inspiring, this one reminds (perhaps) that there's always an waiting sun that can overcome any obstacles and is ready to find every one in that momment or on another day. In one word there can always be HOPE no matter what.

FLOWER

I posted this photo because i've found it side by side an ordinary other flower.... since i've got a limited biology or gardening  knowledge, i'll need someonelse's help in order to discover what flower is this about?
Also idecided to write something about it;

Sometimes a creation coming out of the blue can bloom and you can't recognize it, so will it depend on our knowledge or on our attention to see it coming? The creation can happen randomly, nature impulsed and we should apreciate it when it is a really meaningful or can inspire us to do new things. World needs new things...probably they are already here side by side something ordinary.

THE INSIDE OUT

This picture was taken at north of Portugal at a beach bar in Furadouro - Ovar city.  Door and windows are very meaningful, they are for entry and exit  (yeah...wow...!) . Entry and exits are like our possibilities at our decisions making process, maybe they can help us to get some extra air....or to take a sneak, sometimes. Its our human behave that made us curious about what is behind some door (about something) but after you enter a door that action is done, so you have to live with the consequences of your actions..... world will never gonna be the same then.

THE MIRROR-PHOTO

Referring to an old post from 19/08/13
here it is the original; Hope you like it!

You can find this outstanding view at Douro portuguese wonders!!!
Because of the intensive great wine culture I didicate my sound Harvest-BLUE SUN to it!
enjoy!

The mirror - Photo

Here and there we found ouselves with some simetries...sides that look alike and at the end we have to get to a decision for the right position or side.

Can you tell which is the right position for this photo? (at the end of sometime i'll post it in the correct position) . Gallardo
 

SAILING NOWHERE

Sometimes inside some forest you can find a litle peace in the rush of world... rest in peace tired boats!

OUT OF THE NET

Net free old lady

This old lady refused to be photographed for my camera; i guess she won't see it either in my blog or facebook... but i can't really blame her since the image quality is not what the model deserve, the intention counts!!!

YOU ROCK...

You Rock may Roll

This has been taken during a hiking and is a piece of a a wall , and it occurred me 2 things....
1st: was that in the ancient days there were stifness enough to build difficult structures manually and no one complain about it.......
2nd: we are all rocks in a wall, if we don't stay strong together we might roll..... yep : rock and roll!

THE LAGOON - photo

This photo has been taken in some 10:00 am at 35ºC near a nice lagoon... yes the trees were my witnesses how hot it was...nearby some 200 person were preparing for a hicking morning. Enjoy the summer.

The Tree

The Tree

This Tree was caught up at the edge of a countryside road; maybe defying the other that are in front....or perhaps calling the other to join her, in such quietness...or even maybe waiting a right time for something to happen.

FEELING TIRED

This picture deserves a bit of a story.... In a brief  this was taken some years ago with my 3 MP web cam (so much for the quality thing, and wiring, anthenas....)  in an isolated Portuguese (i will get back later to the location ...'cause i cant remember now ) village, eventhough it shows a lot. In this sort of villages (comon in non urban Portugal: mostly northeast and southeast) it is usual to eldery people to be, during shiny days, at the doors of their homes, to get warm, to think, chat and observe the other or everything combined . But what was this particular man doing? He was seated down near that small chapel... waiting for the priest? Perhaps just a devoted person who thought to be closer to his beliefs...chapels guardian...?! could carry a secret... or better a good story: but i didn't ask him unfortunetly. Perhaps he was fed up being home alone waiting for their children that emigrated to come back safe and sound; so he prayed while chapel was closed ...and got warmed .... tired he fell in sleep dreaming .
