[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
In Portugal the older houses are built with tiles, we are famous in that art. I like it because when the sun strikes the walls the light is so warm. Much nicer then concrete walls painted with some color.
This photo was taken in Braga, in a street right in the center nest to the famous Cathedral.
Thank you for cheking... ;)

Hi Sonia!
You're right. Braga is a wonderful city, and this kind of buildings are surprising and colourful. The golden light in your shoot is great and the contrast between the the green tiles ,the blue sky and the stones works fine.
Congratulations

Olá Sonia,
permita-me escrever em português! Adorei a composição formada pelos recortes da construção. a cor da parede também é única e o detalhe do ponto de luz no primeiro plano também foi uma ótima opção para incluir na montagem dos temas.
Nota boa também,
Parabéns,
Wagner.

Hi Sonia,

You have a really nice composition here with really nice colors. And you're right, when the light strikes the walls of the houses, they look like they are made of jewels, emeralds in this case. Really beautiful shot, with good clarity.

Olá Sónia,
esta é uma bela foto - melhor que isto, só se o candeeiro estivesse aceso :D
A sério, a luz está esplêndida, realça a beleza da arquitectura portuguesa.
Beijo

Bonitos colores y muy bien compuesta, Sonia.
Muy bien realizada.
Un saludo,
Andrew.

Well framed and good colors!
Nice shot!!

Umberto

Olá Sonia,
Gosto muito desta foto que tem uma excelente composição. Os azulejos verdes vidrados dão um toque interessante, com a sua cor e brilho particulares. A perspectiva do candeeiro é gira também, pois não é claro à primeira vista qual a posição em que está. Beijinhos.

Boa fotografia.

Uma pequena critica: Esta casa não tem nada a ver com a tipica arquitetura habitacional portuguesa. Esta, só é uma "Portuguese House" porque está situada em Portugal. Apenas isso.

Gilberto

Bom dia Sonia,

Uma fotographia muito simples et muito bonita. Harmonia dos cores et perfeita clareza.
Felitaçoles.
