One of the critic asked my friend UKTAMOY, why do you write poetry of love always and why don't you write poems against terrorists, fundamentalism and corrupt politicians. She said they will all die one day but love will remain forever.

REPOST

Bom, o dia estava bonito.

A alegria da primavera volta ao meu estado.

Ana, Oh Ana....

Minha mulher talvez deixaria eu ficar com tanta regalia assim.

Se:

Eu estivesse 300% impotente.

O negocio ja nao trabalhando mesmo

se a porta do carro estivesse amassado a minha mao

e se o cafe do Mc Donald's que eh quente pra cacete

tivesse queimado minha lingua.

Essa eh a nova lei dos 300%...

Nao para ser confundida com a regra dos tercos....

the sun was shining through the mini blinds as I entered the

garage.........my car looked like a zebra......I just grabbed my Canon

to capture this effect before going on my morning walk.....

I've been so quiet for so long

Waiting for the chance to find me

Now I'm finding out

That things have never been so real

Never felt the way they should be

Now they've found me

Golden Lilies

I need a break from panoramas. They are hard work compared to photographing birds.

This osprey is returning from an unsuccessful fishing expedition. The evening light helped in the photographing of the wonderful wide range of beautiful underwing colours .... something I had been trying to capture for some time.
