Photographer's Note
Here we have another view of National Congress. I wanted to visit it inside but there was a war between Bolsonaro and the other powers of Republic and everything was closed and surrounded by fences, as you can see here. The buildings of the town was illuminated in pink-purple because October is the month of health of women, my guide said the months in blue, yellow and green had a better illumination.
You can see the Planalto Palace at left, while the huge Square of Three Powers is located behind the congress building. It was a pity I couldn't to be reach of the building, it has lakes around and they create nice reflections.
In the link a song of my youth whose a verse of the lyrics says: I want to put bombs inside the Congress.. By Capital Inicial- Psicopata (1982-6), this band is from Brasília, the city was the capital of Rock in Roll in Brazil during 1980's.

Aqui temos mais uma vista do Congresso Nacional. Queria visitá-lo por dentro, mas havia uma guerra entre os três poderes e como vocês podem ver tudo estava fechado e com cercas ao redor. Os prédios da cidade estavam iluminados de rosa pois era o mês da saúde da mulher, meu guia disse que os meses em azul, amarelo e verde tinham uma iluminação mais bonita.
Foi uma pena eu não poder me aproximar do prédio, pois existem lagos ao redor e as fotos ficariam, bonitas com os reflexos.
Podemos ver o Palácio do Planalto no lado esquerdo, já a grande Praça dos Três Poderes fica atrás do prédio do congresso.

Hi Jorge,
I like the serie of photos of Brasilia at night. The point of view is showing the details of the National Congress building. The surrounding light is making the colors to stand out. Have a nice dya.

Hi Jorge,
Purple is quite surprising choice as illumination. But your note reveals a good reason for that. This certainly catches attention. Very special buildings, one looking a plate placed correctly upwards, and another upside down.

Hi Jorge,
I have never visited the capital of Brazil but I heard that it is a very modern city. This can be seen in the interesting architecture of the buildings in the night pink lighting.
A bit of a railing is in the way and it would probably be better without it.
Well done!
Best regards,
Zbigniew

Hi Jorge,
I understand now the stressful situation which you experienced during this tour. It does look like a great idea to photograph all the monuments at the night time. Sadly the night is sometimes more dangerous in strange unknown places for a photographer. I try to ask a friend of mine to walk with me for the blue hour photos but it is not always easy because it is boring for other people.
Great reportage,
M
