Photo to draw the world.. by silvia marmori

A bell at an arch, at Palamidi fortress ..the city of Napflios down.. far, an island with Bourtzi castle.. Agamemnon kingdom, at Peloponessus..
The eye’s effort to capture all, to feel all.. to draw the world..
And it came to my mind some words by a great argentine writer.. Jorge Luis Borges..
“A man sets out to draw the world. As the years go by, he peoples a space with images of provinces, kingdoms, mountains, bays, ships, islands, fishes, rooms, instruments, stars, horses, and individuals. A short time before he dies, he discovers that the patient labyrinth of lines traces the lineaments of his own face.”

You have an art of educating with wonderful notes and I really like the power of your pictures.
Sometimes Borges' sentences are lengthy, almost Victorian in balance and complexity; but as a rule they are, relatively short and simple.

and i would add, my dear chandru.. short ,simple.. and very effective..
for example: "Writing is nothing more than a guided dream."

Ca ressemble beaucoup à la première image d'un western-spaghetti... Belles couleurs, presque du Technicolor!
Kisses, Gilbert
