Choco Biscuit from Bauduco

Chocolate Biscuit

Did you ever eat one of those biscuits with a layer of chocolate? Until a while ago they were very expensive (in Brazil) - mostly due to being all imported - but now Bauduco has a local option that fits into one’s pocket. I only know that, regardless of the brand, these biscuits are delicious! ...

Natália thoughtful

Photo of the Month - April 2020

This month’s theme is Natália and the Melodica, even if only half of the essay is about the Melodica. It was a spontaneous session, without a lot of grooming and with an LED bar that does’t have a diffuser, thus you can notice sharp shades. I ended up not doing much exploration and only one of the clicks has an obvious play with the light. ...

Thumbnail from the stopmotion video

Photo of the Month - March 2020

This time, a single piece of work will be presented, all pictures taken with the camera on automatic mode. Today, I present a stopmotion! I did it all without researching for too long on the internet, even examples. This is a weak spot because I could have done something more interesting if I had done my homework. I still think it ended up nicely. ...

Fountain on Passeio Público de Curitiba

This is the first blog of the Photo of the Month series, with clicks done in the city of Curitiba. ...

Blackberries List

Or would it be aromas list (translator note: in Portuguese blackberry = amora and aroma = aroma, thus the word play in the original content)? Maybe spices or even other wild berries. Maybe we never know. By myself, I am sure: I can’t give up my blackberry. ...

A Blank Sheet

I never was a big talker. Being with the right people and the incentives by my side, I do well, but I also recognize my limitations. I work with logic and numbers, cannot even say language is a strong skill, even though I like to risk a couple of unusual words here and there (at least in Portgueuse). Speaking of unusual words, to those who like curiosities I recommend this video from Vsauce’s YouTube channel, that goes on about the Zipf law and the fact that the frequency with which words are used in a given language can be described by an exponential law. ...
