On the Bridge Photo

Photographer’s Note

Aveiro is famous for its Ria (Lagoon) and the ‘Ovos Moles’, a kind of sweet desert

Here we can see one Bridge covered the flowers and a couple going to shopping center.

The ‘Ria de Aveiro’ is extended by the city, alongside the sea, a distance of 45 kilometers and a maximum width of eleven miles, from Mira untill Ovar.

The ‘Ria’ is the result of the retreat of the sea, with the formation of coastal ridges that from the sixteenth century, formed a lagoon which is one of the most important and beautiful river of the Portuguese coast

Covers eleven thousand hectares, of which six thousand are permanently flooded, breaks down into four major channels on a branched around a number of islands and islets. Here flow the rivers Vouga, Antuã, Bocoa and Fontão. There are only one communication with the sea, allowing access to Port of Aveiro, vessels of large draft.

Rich in fish and birds, has big areas of water, places of election to practice all water sports. Although it has been lost from year to year, the importance it has in the economy Aveiro, the production of salt, using ancient techniques, is also one of the more traditional features of Aveiro

The Ria de Aveiro is widely used for tourism, particularly through its characteristic boats, the moliceiro. Tourist destinations: cities of Aveiro and Ilhavo, beaches of Barra, Costa Nova, Torreira, Murtosa, S. Jacinto, Furadouro, Ovar, Cortegaça, Barrinha, Esmoriz, Vagos, Vagueira and Mira

Hola Aires.

Me gustan, y mucho, los reflejos en el edificio. Están muy bien vistos.

Un pelín sobresaturada en las personas creo pero bien.

Un saludo!

Intriguing lop-sided shot. I like the way you have produced an apparently continuous spread of sky which is mostly a reflection. Do we see reflection of the sea just beside the central doorway?
At the same time, it is a composition of curves and straight lines, and two humans and lots of flowers to give it life.
TFS, and keep shooting,
Winifred

Bonjour,
belle photo de ce pont arqué qui mène notre regard directement vers ce batiment moderne aus mille mirroirs.
Dans ces mirroirs, les réflections sont magnifiques et donnent encore plus de beauté a votre photo.
Belle recherche de POV.

Amitiés

I love the way you have treated the glass as one huge canvass and painted it with your imagination Aires. The colours are as usual sharp and the impact is refined

azaf1 (15541) 2009-04-30 2:42

Good morning dear Aires

I was typing this one when I realized you were first!!!
Lovely composition with nice curves of the rails on the bridge and the stairs, but above all a terrific reflection as if the wall is totally transparent and allows a view beehind. Really impressive, my friend

Have a lovely weekend, too

Olá Aires,
uma fotografia simples essa da vida diária, mas muito bonita devido as cores fortes e o reflexo no edifício. As mesas e cadeiras vermelhas chamaram a atenção também.
Parabéns e Abraço

Olà Aires!
Très intéressante photo avec les fleurs en avant-plan qui attirent notre attention de même que les beaux reflets sur cette édifice moderne. On dirait que le ciel se continu à travers un mur de vitre. Bonne composition, excellente qualité d'image et superbes couleurs.
Salutations du Canada,
Emilius

danyy (68546) 2009-04-30 23:39

Bonjour Aires,
je dirais que toute la beauté et la force de cette photo résident dans un cadrage bien pensé et dans ces jeux de reflets du ciel, donnant la prépondérance à une couleur bleu bien agréable.
J'aime la présence de ces promeneurs dont les manteaux sont un rien overexposed.
All my best regards.
Daniel.

Olá Aires,
Interessante ver a porta do céu e a passarela que dá acesso enfeitada de flores ;-) Também não faltou o inferno bem vermelho, logo ali por baixo ;-) Conheço uns que diriam que eu inverti tudo...
Abraço,
Docarmo

aires

bonita arquitetura, luz, cores e nitidez, o local parece bonito para fazer fotos, os personagens adicionam vida mas ficariam melhor se estivessem olhando para o centro da compo. de qualquer maneira uma linda imagem

abraços

Olá Aires,
O grafismo e as cores já de si muito vistosas, são bem aproveitadas pelo PDV e pelo tratamento da luz e cores. As flores e as cadeiras dão um belo contraste de cor.
Só é pena que haja alguma OE à esquerda.
Um abraço,
José
