Time for another lovely friend. One of these butterflies ♪ is Inês Pulido and she loves to paint! And to fly. Inês paints since… errr… I think she always painted :) and I love her work! It completely matches with her spirit: “always wearing a smile”! And the colors of her paintings can make me smile too - I just love everything and everyone who makes me smile =) life become so easier…
This photo was taken today, at her exhibition on Feira do Livro, in Braga and this is just one of more than 400 canvas she already painted! We’ve taken a lot of funny pictures today, but I’m sharing this one because it perfectly fits here (sorry for taking the colors away, but for the photo it was a must). Taken by me and post-processed by her cousin Mariana, who loves to draw but also coloring photos with her special touch. And she also loves to smile =)
p.s: don’t forget to listen to the music above, by my favorite musician ever! ;)
Last saturday we (me and more 229) have done the funniest movie of the year :) A lip dub at Velha-a-Branca. All the people was spread around the house singing and dancing at the sound of three generations of music from Braga: António Variações, Mão Morta and Smix Smox Smux. It was a wonderful afternoon! You can see the full set of photos here, on Facebook.
A nice detail about how I developed this film: these days are so so hot that I needed to cool the quemicals instead of warming! And I couldn’t get the target of 20ºC, so it was the first time I developed at 21ºC (with less a minute of exposure). How I love hot sunny days =)
In the afternoon the previous photo was taken, I’ve took three more photos: one from the Sé cathedral and two more of the chestnut’s lady. I don’t know why, but the film didn’t rolled… so the result was this multiple exposed frame. Fortunately I didn’t miss the other one! This expectation is the magic of film =)
♫ “He’s a real nowhere man,
Sitting in his Nowhere Land,
Making all his nowhere plans
for nobody
[...]
He’s as blind as he can be,
Just sees what he wants to see,
Nowhere Man can you see me at all?”
No manipulation made. Just optics :) Ideia by him, my brother Henrique. Good one!
