Yipee! They are coming home!

A Mother's Long Journey...

Someone is holding me,
arms around me,
soft breath in my hair,
Hand on my hand.

And I am holding someone (or two)
hair on my cheek,
soft breathing on my chest,
my arms are full,
and the great wheel of stars turns around me,
rocks to music of chimes
as I round myself around two I love,
safe in my arms of two who loves me.

Summer in Black and White - 2009

Dentro do trem esperando e esperando... Vai sair ou não?
Bom, como a espera estava demais tiramos fotos e fotos. Mas a luz não estava boa. Estava um tanto escuro na cabine. Então escolhemos o preto e branco. Como as cores não estavam colaborando, usamos o preto e branco pra mostrar outras coisas como o contraste, a harmonia das formas que fazem algumas linhas e curvas que dão um dinamismo pra composição, o jogo de luz de sombra e de reflexo, as faixas de tons de cinza,preto e branco que se formam...
