 my two favourite shots from the camera on my new phone, which will be my workhorse for capturing images of my wanderings around the region near my home:

a pretty hibiscus flower that is just perfect:

a view over the mountain at the edge of the coast taken from the now closed cliffside road... you can see the path that is visible from out my windows and where it winds up further and higher across the edge of the mountain over to Arco de Sao Jorge and on to the town you see off in the distance, Sao Jorge:

oh yeah, the area in teh foreground is my area, the western side of the ridge, it's called Sao Cristoval (saint christopher)... just over out of site behind the PRIVADO sign is a restaurant right near the edge and at the start of the path over down through the gully up to that mountain path.
