         		 Photo of Parque das Nações at Lisbon-Portugal. This used to be a place where old refineries laboured and where domestic garbage was dumped. The area was completely renewed and is nowadays a big park by river Tagus with lots of residential and migratory birds. This particular shot was taken on a foggy morning, the sun was showing but there was still some mist over the river, making the bridge look like a mirage resting on the river´s surface.: by fleetingmoments, Views[1147]

         		 Still another view of Vasco da Gama Bridge taken from under this river Tagus passage during low tide. It was about 11pm, there was noone around and I had the place to myself to completly absorb it.: by fleetingmoments, Views[554]

         		 The beggining, next to the coast: by curious, Views[291]
         		 The construction is abandoned to its own materiality, with only traces of the former production equipment, which has been removed. The structure has a memory of the past but, simultaneously, it is lacking a specific identity, becoming, as long as it is not controlled by the rules of utilitarianism, an area of an expectant freedom.: by nelsonmiranda, Views[394]
     
    The building, designed for strictly productive purposes, had become an empty place, assuming the absence of use as meaning. The space and light had become the new characters in this scenery.: by nelsonmiranda, Views[423]
         		 The factory is now progressively invaded by vegetation that tries to regain its place in the city. The flora occupies some of the spaces and colonizes the landscape, giving this scenery of ruin a dramatic effect.: by nelsonmiranda, Views[406]
         		 These urban voids, apparently forgotten, are increasingly quested as alternative spaces to the active zones of the metropolis. These areas are often explored by curious people who experience the awkwardness of these places, venturing not only in the inhabited buildings but also in the sense of freedom granted by its abandonment.: by nelsonmiranda, Views[803]
         		 Industrial Symphony shows a deserted landscape of a factory building in the city of Guimarães in Portugal. The industrial development during the 20th century was responsible for the great urban transformation of this territory. Currently, due to technological and economic developments, many of these facilities were shut down becoming silent witnesses of the city’s productive past.: by nelsonmiranda, Views[755]
         		 They are in a hurry. But still is this quickened city, they are some, who still search the opportunity, which Lisbon gives them - the opportunity to fly and to be free. In this idyllic city, not everyone is happy, but how could they? It gives me not only the great feeling, but the nostalgia, too. It makes me wanting to just stand there and stare at the beautiful sea. It makes me wanting to read, to create, to photograph, to be part of it, no matter in what way. And then I see this person. I see him standing there, being all alone. With his bicycle. Reading, being completely fine. Because he is part of Lisbon. : by aneliakalcheva, Views[272]
     
    Because so many people go through cities like Lisbon. So many different personalities have been on that train. Yes, on exactly this one, on this steep street. Going somewhere. Everybody so purposeful. Everybody has no time to appreciate, everybody has no time to see. Because the people, who live in Lisbon, are the one, who are blind to it’s beauty. They don’t have time, they are busy traveling. They are busy going somewhere. They are always on their way on the steep street. In the rush, they only see the graffiti, but they don’t know how much it meant for someone to draw them. They don’t know how lonely this train feels. They are in a hurry.: by aneliakalcheva, Views[613]
         		 What Lisbon gives me is magical. There are some places, where you can’t explain what you feel, because it’s just a feeling. Lisbon is one of those. It’s not just a city, it’s a mixture of art, history, people, culture. The spirit, which flies over it, is what makes is so special. To walk on the streets, to meet all these people, without knowing them, without understanding their language, but still feeling the emotions on their faces, to inhale every little detail from those stunning buildings. Masterpiece of architecture, filled with history. How many people have walked on that street? How many souls have been here? Every one of them is a piece of this city. The people - that’s what gives a city it’s final ingredient. And the buildings? They just keep standing there, watching, being pretty. They just keep imbibing pieces of those souls and then keep telling stories to strangers like me. Because these buildings - they are speaking, they are so filled with memories and feelings, that’s impossible not to feel them.: by aneliakalcheva, Views[708]
