up

Bom Jesus elevator. Because it's easier to get down than to go up.

melancholic roses

I don't usually like to take pictures of flowers, but I decided to work on this one and post it, as I'm heading tomorrow to take more pictures, hopefully lighter and happier than this one. I have a reserve series on Lisbon and Sintra, but I decided to not use it yet and give this photo a chance.

fading sun in a burning sky

A sunset in center Portugal.
There has been a change in my vacation schedule. I came sooner from south Portugal, and I'll be heading north on friday. I'll be visiting Braga and other places in north Portugal I hope to turn into beautiful photography subjects.

he's got the whole cosmos in his wings

I would like to be able to take a better portrait of this little bug, with it's marvelous wings. The wings really reminded me of the sky at night, filled with stars. Took this photo in Sarnadas, near Castanheira de Pêra, Portugal.
Tomorrow I'm going in a week vacation, and I'll be back Thursday.

the lonely lighthouse

This is a lighthouse in Cabo da Roca (Roca's cape), which is as west as you can go in continental Europe. I would like to have a more original touch in the photo, but anyway, I've always liked lighthouses.
