39 for one candle - Una candela per 39

            In my humble opinion, September is the best month of the year.
There is a number of reasons.
First of all, because it's a transition period, between the brightness of the long days of summer and the melancholic hues and ground-grazing clouds of the autumn.
Second, because it contains one of the two Equinox days, and it becomes equally easy to shoot a sunset or a sunrise.
Third, because there is something magic in the way the air smells of rain and soil  after a swift storm coming from the west, often just after a great sunset
Forth, because the grapes are ripe and I can feel how they mean for my land and people
Fifth, because I have never seen the same September twice in my life. Each of them has been so special and unique. And I wonder wether this one will make no exception. But I am sure it won't.
And finally, last but not least, because my birthday is today, Sept 12th. And since 39 candles would have been too many to fit in the frame, I've left only one to burn for all. 

PS: The best present always remains the first I got...  ;)
