馃嚞馃嚙 In English
Hello dear #ShadowHunters community,
This time the walk was along the coastline, along that wide road that leads to the hospital and that so many people travel every day with different states of mind. It was early. The sun was just beginning to rise, but it was already making itself noticed.
There is a moment in the morning when the light is not yet fully intense, but it already has intention. It gently leans and begins to draw over whatever it finds. And this time it found some ornamental palms that form something like a fan, although I am not knowledgeable about plants, growing along the edge of the road.
Their open leaves, stretched like green hands toward the sky, seemed to welcome the day. And below, over the dry, pale grass, their perfectly defined shadows were projected. There was no asphalt in that scene. Only grass and light.
The shadows opened in the shape of a star, replicating each segment of the leaves.
They were sharp, almost exact, as if the earth were holding a natural drawing. Around each trunk, the grass became a canvas.
While I was walking, I noticed how the sun, as it continued rising, was slowly shortening those dark figures. It was an almost imperceptible movement, yet constant. A silent conversation between the sky and the earth.
The road toward the hospital usually feels practical, direct, even hurried. But that morning it had a different energy. The shadows made me look down, pause for a few seconds, and recognize the simple beauty that we sometimes ignore out of routine.
Perhaps I do not know the exact name of those palms. Perhaps I do not fully understand their species or their botanical characteristics. But I do know how to recognize when light transforms the ordinary into something worthy of contemplation.
And that morning, in the middle of the coastline, between the gentle wind and the distant murmur of the city, the shadows awakened with the day and made me awaken as well.
Up to this point my entry for this week鈥檚 contest. The images are my property and for the English version I use DeepL Translate.

Hola querida comunidad de #ShadowHunters
Esta vez el paseo fue por el litoral, por ese camino amplio que conduce al hospital y que tantas personas recorren cada d铆a con distintos estados de 谩nimo. Era temprano. El sol apenas comenzaba a subir, pero ya se hac铆a notar.
Hay un momento en la ma帽ana en que la luz todav铆a no es intensa del todo, pero ya tiene intenci贸n. Se inclina suavemente y empieza a dibujar sobre lo que encuentra. Y esta vez encontr贸 unas palmas ornamentales que forman como un abanico, aunque no soy conocedora de plantas, creciendo a la orilla del camino.
Sus hojas abiertas, extendidas como manos verdes hacia el cielo, parec铆an recibir el d铆a. Y debajo, sobre la hierba seca y clara, se proyectaban sus sombras perfectamente definidas. No hab铆a asfalto en esa escena. Solo c茅sped y luz.
Las sombras se abr铆an en forma de estrella, replicando cada segmento de las hojas.
Eran n铆tidas, casi exactas, como si la tierra estuviera sosteniendo un dibujo natural. Alrededor de cada tronco, la hierba se convert铆a en lienzo.
Mientras camin谩ba, not茅 c贸mo el sol, al seguir subiendo, iba acortando lentamente esas figuras oscuras. Era un movimiento casi imperceptible, pero constante. Una conversaci贸n silenciosa entre el cielo y la tierra.
El camino hacia el hospital suele sentirse pr谩ctico, directo, incluso apurado. Pero esa ma帽ana tuvo otra energ铆a. Las sombras obligaban a mirar hacia abajo, a detenerse unos segundos, a reconocer la belleza sencilla que a veces ignoramos por rutina.
Tal vez no sepa el nombre exacto de esas palmas. Tal vez no entienda del todo sus especies ni sus caracter铆sticas bot谩nicas. Pero s铆 s茅 reconocer cuando la luz transforma lo cotidiano en algo digno de contemplarse.
Y esa ma帽ana, en medio del litoral, entre el viento suave y el rumor distante de la ciudad, las sombras despertaron con el d铆a y me hizo despertar tambi茅n.
