The Ephemeral

In Lagoa Doce, a coastal village in the north of Rio de Janeiro state, it is still possible to see the pinnacle, as the local people like to refer to a remaining piece of sedimentary rock that was dismembered from its main spit. This curious tower-like sedimentary rock feature is destined to disappear (naturally) in a few years.

Aware of that, I decided to show it here in an attempt to transform fleetingness in an everlasting visual poem.

If I am not successful at that, I will have at least given a good hint for people who might be looking for a quite and clean beach spot.
