Some places are very special - not only beautiful but romantic but unique; one such is Rio de Janeiro - the sunset on Copacabana can be breathtaking - in this case the magic worked as the clouds "embraced" the "morro" (moutain) Pão de Açúcar - the end of a perfect day in the "Cidade Maravilhosa" on Copacabana beach: the sound of the waves, the smell of the sea, great music and a caipirinha what more can you want? You feel one with Nature and its beauty and grateful to be alive. So my friends I hope you enjoy and embrace life with joy and love.

"Love... it surrounds every being and extends slowly to embrace all that shall be."

This is for my dearest Martha (a great friend as well as co-admin whom I discovered via Flickr ) - this is for her birthday . HAPPY BIRTHDAY - PARABENS - She is a lovely person and photographer, very generous, who loves to share what she knowns about photography and to learn (as in life - we share a lot in common (flowers,slow food, beauty and art) - to talk to her is a real pleasure - a wonderful Lady. So here goes my favourite white roses to wish her the very best (aqui vao minhas rosas brancas preferitas pra voce que tanto gosta de flores).
AMIGA querida desejo tudo de bom para voce sempre - Amor, Harmonia, Saude e Felicidade.

"A friend who is far away is sometimes much nearer than one who is at hand. Is not the mountain far more awe-inspiring and more clearly visible to one passing through the valley than to those who inhabit the mountain?" K.Gilbran "Um amigo que está longe às vezes é muito mais perto do que aquele que está à mão. Não é a montanha mais imponente e mais claramente visível para uma passando pelo vale do que aqueles que habitam a montanha?"K.Gilbran

As the song says I really have always been happily "chasing rainbows" all my life... and still do! - this picture was taken in the center of Lisbon - a lovely rainbow (out of the blue) - and you can see the typical old palaces of the center of the city (Baixa) - so as we go into a new week and month I send you this rainbow and a bit of Lisboa. We are all living uncertain days but dream we must. Wishing you all to find your "bluebird ... somewhere or someway". Enjoy!

“Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue, and the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true”
Lyman Frank Baum
"Be thou the rainbow in the storms of life. The evening beam that smiles the clouds away, and tints tomorrow with prophetic ray." ~ Lord Byron
