Inn 1971 we rescued this owl, Otus scops, had one wing broken and cut, surely attacked by a cat, we rescued her and she lived many years but with only one wing had no means to return to the wild.

This grasshopper is made with tools by Diniz, a local artist.
I offered it to JP for his 80th birthday.

The photos I enjoy taking are about nature and unusual details on everyday life surroundings.
Not my thing : sports, street photography, postprocessing effects.

Sorry for my absence but I am dealing with hard times on private life.

For this Sunday Challenge: Storytelling - Part 5: Your story

I struggled to find a contribution because among those not yet published and the ones already published but that I love the choise was a hard decision to make.

Subject:
The kids a little shy and asking themselves who were those 5 people with cameras coming out of a 4WD.

Context:
Bahlil, a lost village in Marroco.

Moment:
4 of us outside, another parking the 4WD, the kid on the left was looking at it.

Emotion:
Just after more kids gathered, we had pencils, notebooks and treats for them, but for me this moment of surprise and interrogation was the most emotional, the seconds preceeding the first contact.

Another photo, the one I love the most from my trip there is the following one, already published here :

The girl is talking to her grandfather. The fence is to protect Volubilis ruins, not to allow people or cattle to enter the site freely. The man is the official guide of the site, the girl was bringing the donkey home, they had a chat... we can feel love there.

Mysterious offering close to Penedos (my village).

Xata has posted:

A mystery is puzzling the village, who put this at the bottom of the cross at a crossroads close to the village?
I asked chatgpt and seems it is an Afro-Brazilian offering, probably to an entity called Exu-Pomba-Gira.
He purpose remains unknown here…

ALL ANIMALS?
REALLY?

I am sorry but I can't relate myself to any photographer, not that I find myself superior, just that I always followed my way, never tried to imitate anyone else, in photography as in life.

I am just one who doesn't fit in anywhere...
