Sleeping in the Camera Obscura


Many, if not everyone, at least one time will have heard of the camera obscura.
Few, nearly no one, have ever woke up in such a magic thing.
But this is what happened to Sara and me just a couple of days ago, when we opened our yes in the morning and noticed a coloured shadow on the wall. So we stood up and checked with our eyes that the coloured spot was actually the building in front of ours but, as you know, turned upside down.
With the whole room in the darkness, all the light was just passing through a little hole at the top of the shutters and it was so unexpected that really looked magic.
We were so amazed by this thing that we'd have liked to stay for hours to watch this, but the day was calling and we had to move on.
Anyhow now we know that we're sleeping in the Camera Obscura, and every sunny day this beautiful show will be on air again.

Holes in shutters for everybody!
