All You Need Is Love...

caught my attention

affectionate

amazingly deep

Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love.
There's nothing you can do that can't be done.
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung.
Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game
It's easy.
There's nothing you can make that can't be made.
No one you can save that can't be saved.
Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be in time
It's easy.
All you need is love, all you need is love,
All you need is love, love, love is all you need.
Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love.
All you need is love, all you need is love,
All you need is love, love, love is all you need.
There's nothing you can know that isn't known.
Nothing you can see that isn't shown.
Nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be.
It's easy.
All you need is love, all you need is love,
All you need is love, love, love is all you need.
All you need is love (all together now)
All you need is love (everybody)
All you need is love, love, love is all you need.

The Beatles (Lennon/McCartney)

The photo was taken in the poorest of favelas in our region, during our Beija-Flor na Comunidade (Hummingbird in the Community) programme there a couple of weeks back.

Really great photo art!

Im very impressed. I used your art in the following research news that I wrote: E-vitamin ger större bebisar (in swedish).

The news is about vitamine E giving larger bebis. You can read it in english here: UMDNJ Research Connects Vitamin E Use to Bigger Babies.

Thanks for using creative commons, and good luck with your art work!

Best regards
