This week, Patti invites us to capture “A Quiet Moment.”
Learn to love the moments between destinations, the quiet moments with yourself, the slow moment one life seems to be waiting to give you next instructions; trust that you are preparing for the next stages of your life, and be ready when the next door is open, and it’s time to walk inside. (Mark Anthony)
The dog looks mesmerized by the bone and the camera has captured this quiet moment …

“Sometimes in life, we are caught in a zone,
when loved ones feel like strangers and
strangers feel like own; When the road
ahead looks frightening but we have to
walk alone, That’s the right time to collect
ourselves and walk, Because only the tough
get going when the going gets tough…”

Amy is inviting us to share this week Lens-Artists Challenge: Old and New.
“If we don’t care about our past, we can’t hope for the future…”
I take this photo in “The Águas Livres Aqueduct” built in the 1744 with 35 arches cross the valley, and we must see the “Amoreiras’ Tower” one of the high points on the Lisbon skyline built in the 1985.
Ann-Christine is hosting this week’s challenge, and she “thought we would indulge in some Delicate Colours!

This week the Lens-Artists Photo Challenge is organized by a guest-host: Sue of Mac’s Girl, and Sue choose the theme: “Pastimes“.
In addition to photography, my favourite pastime is gardening and in this lockdown I took the opportunity to plant some horticultural plants such as: onions, lettuce, tomatoes, beans, chilli, assorted cabbages, cucumbers, peppers and some strawberries. Strawberries are a bit of a job, we have to put a layer underneath so that the strawberries do not pick up soil.
For this week’s Lens-Artists Photo Challenge, Patti choose “Cropping the Shot“.
In photography, cropping means to remove unwanted areas from an image.
I take this photo from my garden.
Amy is inviting us to join this week Lens-Artists Challenge: At Home.
From my garden this strelitzia reginae (estrelícia in Portuguese), commonly known as the crane flower or bird of paradise, resembles a bird’s head, and due to its brilliant orange and blue colours and unique form, it resembles not just any bird but a bird-of-paradise, is a species of flowering plant indigenous to South Africa.
