Hello my dear #italy community This is my entry for THE BEST PHOTO OF THE WEEK.

A beautiful cat in the immense concrete jungle, Petare, the largest neighborhood in South America! There I saw him, sitting looking towards the horizon, his horizon, and in the background, the decorated hills of the famous red brick houses and further back the majesty of El Ávila hill, emblem of the capital, the lung of the city and protector of the great valley of Caracas from the Caribbean Sea. Seeing this animal as the main center of my painting made me think about how powerful, magical and wonderful nature is, that no matter how much we bury it between houses and roads, that no matter how much we cover it with rubble and garbage bags, it , nature in all its forms always survives, it will always be there, peeking out from the garbage a small shoot of some wild plant, it always comes to light, climbing to the top of the hill to sunbathe and silently observe everything what man continues to advance in his attempt, unconsciously or not, to disappear to the last petal.

You wrote well, a cat in a concrete jungle. If I understand correctly it is Caracas, right? There has been a very strong urbanization

Hello gallant! Well yes, it is Caracas. In its most intense and wild zone. And the cat, the most human part of that concrete jungle. A hug, handsome.
