“Sculpture by the sea” – art in Århus (2011 edition)

By andre_, on November 3rd, 2012

After two years, the Summer 2011 carried in Århus the “Sculpture by the Sea“, a rather big open-air exhibition of modern art on the strand south of the city centre. And like two years before, I went and took some photos (HERE the post from 2009).

Many handworks were well blended in the landscape, creating . . . → Read More: “Sculpture by the sea” – art in Århus (2011 edition)

By andre_, on September 18th, 2012

Ponta de São Lourenço is a peninsula, some five or six kilometers long, laying at the very east of Madeira. It’s extremely fascinating, with its desertic landscape and the colorful rocks’ layers, product by different eruptions some millions years ago. I had very hard time selecting less than forty photos to put in the gallery, . . . → Read More: Ponta de São Lourenço

Madeira – West and South coasts

Cabo Vermelho (N. Sra. da Boa Morte), 429m)
