Costa Nova Houses #3 Photo

Photographer’s Note

Hi dear TE friends

This is the last picture about the typical Houses of 'Costa Nova' in Aveiro

In the WS you can see the Beach of Costa Nova and the Map of place. The main picture is from opposite side in front of the main canal. The typical houses were building by the fishermen.

The beach of Costa Nova do Prado, also known only by Costa Nova, is located on the west coast of Portugal, at the coast of the ‘Ria de Aveiro’. Administratively is of the Ílhavo city as the beach of Barra. It is in the tourist route of the light / Central Region.

This place had its origin in the opening bar of the estuary in the year 1808. The name is due to two facts. The first one, "Costa Nova", as opposed to the "Old Coast" (San Jacinto). Secondly is because in this place, have existed and a huge green pasture.

It is one of the excellent Portuguese beaches for water sports, with a sailing club. We often see a lot of people practicing windsurf, kite and other similar sports.

The ex-libris of this beach is the "barns" - houses painted with vertical stripes interspersed with vivid colors and cheerful.

Those houses are so interesting and beautiful. I've never seen such original and colourful architecture. I like very much your composition wich shows the row of houses and the palm trees at the right and that possesses a great sense of depth and perspective. The colours are wonderful and make the picture so vivid and gay. Well done,
Donato

Hello Aires,

Seems like a colourful street!
Fine details in the houses with varied architecture, and the point of view adds a great feeling of depth to the composition...
Fine framing by vegetation, that also adds colour contrast!

Greetings,

Hi Aires,
Glad to see you again ! Very pleasant scene (I almost have written summer scene, but afterwards I saw that it was in fact a spring scene), with blue sky, palm-trees and the colorful holiday houses. The POV is excellent and the vivid colors give a feeling of optimism and freshness.
TFS and a nice WE to you too !

Bonsoir, mon ami Aires,
Quel bonheur de trouver une promenade aussi belle bordée par de bien jolies maisons dont chacune s'amuse à s'habiller différemment architecturalement.
Le choix du cadrage est parfait pour donner cette très belle perspective.
Une image très réussie.
Amitiés.
Philippe
P.S. : Un grand merci pour les photos présentées en bonus.

trekks (14262) 2009-05-02 16:24

hi Aires

This is most interesting kind of house architecture! Very nice walkway with benches and features that make it more attractive to see. I like your presentation of this POV by including a nice part of palm green at the right to give very strong contrast to the blue sky.

Good composed view.

tfs, bill

Muito interessante e agradavel á vista este tipo de casas.
Maria

jmdias (18991) 2009-05-12 3:05

aires

imagino como deve ser interessante esta praia, a fileira de casas coloridas é já famosa e penso que cada fachada deve produzir ao menos uma bela foto de forte efeito gráfico. linda vista geral, assim temos ideia de como é o local como um todo

abraços
