1280x720 - 3:03 video recorded in Lisbon, Portugal between 30th of April and 28th of May 2011 with a Nikon D7000 by Hugo Alexandre Cruz.

Over the last rainy afternoon weekends I've decided to capture some of the beauty in details of my backyard. Living right at the centre of a cosmopolitan capital city, Lisbon, there are still some elements of old architecture together with amazing sounds of nature and fauna.

The blackbird - I haven't really gave it a name maybe for total respect on it's freedom wanting not to interfere - sings beautifully almost everyday around 5 o'clock in the morning and again when it's sun setting.

Dick is another of the characters in this lively backyard. Starting to be old age it's an amazing friend and watch guard dog, sometimes a little too soft!

June the most accurate observer of the backyard and great friend had to be present. I wish I could tell the story trough it's eyes, understand all the excitement and fears and captured it with all dynamic and instincts.
Instead I've tried to make it a little more poetic using the visual narrative and ambience sounds to show you The Backyard.
