The Last Stronghold

The battle has ended...

Outside the last stronghold I patiently await, till someone carries my burden away and frees me up from my duties. Right now all I need is to simply be as one, to exist with no associated conditions or engraved pre-concepts.

The last stronghold keeps me safe for now...

José Ramos

Photo taken at Lisbon - Portugal

Shooting notes - ^{this building has always fascinated me. Situated in the periphery of Lisbon, its extremely solid construction makes us wonder how many times it saved our coastline from unknown perils. I had finally decided to visit it the day before this shot was made, to be able to appreciate it's beauty and to study its photographic potential. I explored it and I hadn't found any special shooting motif in it... until I decided to "break" its frontiers and jumped over an open-air window (like the one you can see in the photo) from which I probably could have a better view of the sunset. Well, I was amazed with what I saw! Unfortunately the sky had few clouds, so I headed home with not-so-good shots. I spent the rest of the day thinking "I must return there soon!". The next day I woke up, opened the window and looked at the sky and it was graced by the presence of the much desired clouds. Needless to say that there I was the next day, in my recently discovered sweet spot, waiting for the sunset... I can't simply describe how good it was to spend 1.5 hours watching colours mutate and dance as the sun was getting lower and lower.}

There are no scents nor sounds contained in this photo, but this is the best I can do to share this moment with you...
