Photographer's Note
Beijoz (read Bay-josh) is an ancient village in Central Portugal, its daily life is rapidily changing, but you still find a flavour of the traditional way of life.
This is a medieval (about 12 centuries old) tomb graved in a granitic outcrop at a plateau with productive soil that has been cropped since very old times. The grave is 184 cm long and 48 cm wide (at the arm level). This kind of anthropomorphic graves are relatively common in Iberian Peninsula.
Shot in a sunny afternoon after a rainy Holy Saturday morning ;)

Hello Beijo,
I realle like this shot, and your information sends small shivers down my spine! I like how the blue sky is mirrored, and the branches look like they grow out of the rock itself.
Good job! Have a smily!
Regards,
Eva

Greetings Beijo. One really feels the merciless passing of Time. The moss on the stone and your notes emphasize how all things are here for a short time. It is a very sensitive and creative composition. I love the reflection which brings the sky into the stone. Clever. Salud,Klaudio

Olá Beijokense,
Visualmente é praticamente uma foto abstrata. Gosto da composição e detalhes. Se não aparecesse o canto superior direito fora do túmulo, ainda seria melhor.
