Este Presépio luminoso, foi montado no final dos Eixos Monumentais, na parte oeste da cidade, atrás do Memorial JK, provavelmente simbolizando que o evento do nascimento de Cristo se deu no Oriente (oeste), e também, foi colocado em uma área livre de edificação, para não tumultuar visualmente estas esculturas de luz, e com isso obteve-se a sensação de imensidão e deserto, como que reconstruindo a História, o que achei uma idéia muita inteligente por parte de quem o construiu. No WS, pode-se ter uma visão diurna do local do presépio, contudo, como durante o dia, as estruturas que o formam ficam visíveis, não é adequado para a tomada de fotografia.
**************
This luminous Stable, it was set up in the end of the Monumental Axes, behind of The JK Memorial, in the part West of the city, probably symbolizing that the event of Christ's birth felt in the East (west), and also, it was put in an area free from buildings and houses, for not disrupting these light sculptures visually, and with that it was obtained the immensity sensation and desert, then I thought a very smart idea on the part of who built it.
In WS, you can have a day view of the place of the stable, however, as during the day, the structures that form it are visibles, what is not good for to take picture.

Hola Consuelo
Great night capture with beautiful perspective and vivid colors
Happy 2008!

Olá Consuelo,
nuestra cultura mediterránea es mucho más próxima al Pesebre y a la tradición de los regalos por los Reyes Magos. La cultura anglosajona de Papá Noel o Santa Claus la hemos importado no hace mucho tiempo.
Por eso me gusta ver esta imagen de estos Reyes Magos iluminados destacando sus siluetas en la oscuridad de la noche.
Es una foto muy atractiva y adecuada para estas fiestas.
Un abrazo, y os deseo a tí y a los tuyos un muy feliz Año 2008.

Ola Consuelo,
Percebo que esta tirando o atraso devido a chuva da semana passada e faz muito bem, ainda mais apresentando esta bonita captura deste presépio. Luzes de cores soberbas com bonito contraste, perspectiva em ótimo angulo. Grande trabalho.
Abraço

Boas noites Consuelo,
gran idea...los tres Reyes acercándose con sus camellos, tierna fotografía!! La iluminación da un contraste mágico a la escena,pués contrasta con la oscuridad absoluta de la noche. Asombra ver la diferencia entre la toma nocturna y la diurna del WS, interesantes las dos fotografías.
Excelente trabajo!!

Feliç Any Nou 2008!!!
Salut y 1 abraço, Jordi

Bonsoir Consuelo,
Les 2 photos sont magnifiques. Félicitations pour ta prise de vue de nuit très nette avec la lumière de lampadaire qui semble être une étoile et le merveilleux ciel du WS.
Bravo
Diane

Consuelo, j'aime beaucoup cette photo qui évoque l'arrivée des rois. Ta photo les met bien en valeur. La photo du WS est aussi très belle avec un ciel superbe.
Meilleurs voeux pour cette nouvelle année.
