iMac out of service

The computer I use for graphics is giving some problems, thus I probably won’t publish any pictures for a few days.
It doesn’t mean I stopped taking pictures 
C’ya!

Red bougainvillea and its white flower
April 27, 2010
I’ve never noticed the white flower of the bougainvillea… seems nice!
All-time low
April 26, 2010
Creepy, awful day today!
I have not almost taken the today picture just because my ability to trust mankind (and my cognitive skills about people) is at its an all-time low.
But then, I said to myself: “F**k! I won’t let darkness overcome everything”.
I probably let the dark thoughts influence the picture, the attempt of HDR with a soap bubble, but I don’t dislike the result and I love the fact that the lens i kinda clear.
Springtime in Catania…

Another cloudy
and rainy
week end.
I can’t complain.
The slightly steamed up car windows, covered by rain drops, became an interesting playground for lights.
It’s still raining outside.
The travelling little dog

Daddy will be in North Italy for a couple of day and, as always, one this two little “pink dogs” jumped inside daddy’s luggage
The girl in the glass
April 22, 2010
Sometimes I feel that my lack in “artistic field” is something of terrible, especially when I think that I probably don’t have those skills you can gain and improve in art school.
I do my best to learn something by myself, but I don’t think I’m doing a great job… as a consequence when I take pictures I do my best to get something nice and/or interesting.
The “I miss something” feeling increase when I’ve to edit a picture, and think about the light… but again, I can’t do much so I just follow my instinct and search the best combination to my eyes.
In this constant search of Beauty, at times, happens that in the picture I find something “new” that looks “old”.
For example, this detail in the glass I use every day.
I’ve been looking at its light games many time in these last months and, today, after lunch, I’ve decided to take a picture of it because my attention was attracted to it . I can’t say what it was. I’ve just taken the picture as well as I could.
While I was editing the picture lights, to make it looking “nicer”, here appears the girl.
The girl with the pony tail who is running with wide-opened arms, as she has just seen someone she loves and hadn’t met for a very long time.
As soon as I understood what I was looking at, I felt like I’ve already noticed this detail but not in a conscious way, indeed, to be honest, I wasn’t able to see it when I was taking the picture.
No, there was no alcoholic drink in my glass and I don’t assume drugs, it’s just my imagination mixed with a little of “luck”.

Update. Daddy saw a girl doing an athletic active like “pole vault” or “high jump”. Like he saw the pony tail, the head, the arms and the chest oriented like I thought. While the lines under the “arm” on the right, should be the legs oriented toward the sky while the girl is falling down.
Is that one of the…

Any relative: “Is that one of the…”
Me: “Yep, one of the flower we have on the balcony.”
his/her/their answer: “Ah!”
How I love when this happens!
Big day today because I woke up at 7:20 am and it’s 8:23 pm and I still didn’t fall asleep.
Big day today even for this little 3 0f 8 planted-”guys” are already coming out…
Considering I planted those sunflower seeds on April 15th, seems cool, eh?!
Weather forecast said…

that today it was supposed to be rainy/stormy.
Today it’s warm (22°C) and sunny.
I love when they do this mistake in any spring-summer time month, for 2 simple reasons.
1) When I wake and find the lovely surprise of the sunny day, that day starts with a great smile.
2) After lunch I can spend at least 30 minutes on my balcony, taking a little of sun and looking at the plants/flowers we have there.
One of the few good aspect of living in Sicily, the weather is often sunny and lovely.
