Visão nebulosa


Explanation:
(Ou "olhar obnubilado", se você preferir uma imagem mais poética.Outra opção -- esta jornalística -- seria "Com os olhos nas nuvens", que passa, a um tempo só, a idéia da neblina hibernal e do sonho distante.

Ao pé-da-letra, teríamos "visão embaçada". Pessoalmente, acho horrível.

Boa sorte, Sofia!

Boa sorte!
