The Blue Rock and us.

Very few of my pictures have shown people or man made things. These two images, however, would not be complete without some human references, for the powerful sight of "Pedra Azul" can only be felt if seen from a human size perspective.

This natural monument is one of the main attractions of  Espirito Santo state, in the same tourist circuit mentioned in the previous post. Its name comes from the bluish hue noticeable during most part of the day, when sunlight reflects from the slime molds that grow on the rock surface.

But what really fascinates visitors is the feeling of smallness they get when walking the trails that take them closer to that huge "thing".
