in the great quiet of these distances

...your solitude will be a hold and home for you even amid very unfamiliar conditions and from there you will find all your ways...

Today is a sunny and quiet day. And I finally will spend it alone in a 'stop to smell the roses' reading a book while feeling the sun on my face. Hmmm.

'As you set out for Ithaca
hope your road is a long one,
full of adventure, full of discovery.

But don't hurry the journey at all.
Better if it lasts for years, so you're old by the time you reach the island,
wealthy with all you've gained on the way'

(Konstantinos Kavafis 'Ithaca')

No se ingles, pero las fotos son preciosas. Todas dicen algo, tal vez no sea lo que pretendías pero me gusta.

Ira, me alegro de que te gusten las fotos y sobre todo, que te digan algo. Es precisamente eso lo que busco y quiero lograr con mi fotografía: expresar, remover y hacer sentir en lugar de solo enseñar. Prefiero mil veces que sean mis fotos las que digan algo a que sea a través de mis palabras (vayan en el idioma que vayan). Gracias!!
