Sweet Avila II ~ Memory

Sweet Avila II

remembering is the absent chatting with the absent.
the distance turning toward the distance.

love allows distance to recede,
as if looking into a poetic dream;
listening intently to one sound only:
the sound of the wind.

perhaps...remembering is the sound of the wind.

    La suave luz entra a través de la niebla; suavemente,
    como el paisaje fotografiado.
    Da sensación de estar todo en silencio.
    Buena foto y buena edición, enhorabuena.
    Un saludo, Ángel

    A softly dreamy photo and poem...there is something special about terra cotta roof tiles, what a fantastic view that fades perfectly

    Beautiful aerial view! I like the different types of tiles on the roofs and the break of greenery before the expansive distance-Where is this taken?

    I love this image! I especially like the way you brought out the pattern and colour variations in the tiles at the front and the general sense of distance. Beautiful! Thank you for sharing on Mandarin Orange Monday:)

    Hi! Nice capture. I remembered the last sentence of Gone with the wind,"Tomorrow is another day".

    A stunning view! Love how all the orange toned roofs seem huddled together as a stage for the scenic slopes in the background!
