Who Guards The Moon?

.
Tower Grove Park, Dusk

Well, I was going to post another picture from the Veterans Day parade but oopsie! I left the external drive with those images on my desk at work. So maybe back to that tomorrow.

For today, then, part of the eastern gate of Tower Grove Park as the sun was setting behind me. This post needs some background music.

  5. Great atmosphere. Sorry, but the sound board on my MacBook Air went out some time ago, so I could not take advantage of the music. I am due for a new computer, which will be Julie's computer, once she finishes off-loading all of her photos onto the new computer that we bought for her.

  6. This is amazing! Well done, Bob, great shot.

    In answer to your wquestion: yes, the Moors accupied the territory in the 8th century. They were expelled in the 12th century by the man who would be our first king and that was when Portugal became a nation. Their legacy is vast: architecture (many of the castles are still standing), the tile industry, vocabulary, etc.

  9. Oh, it's wonderful silent. But, if it had a sound track, I believe it would be a great shot in a silent movie.
