[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Ouro Preto is one of the colonial cities of the state of Minas Gerais (General Mills) in Brazil. The whole region grew out of the gold mines located here, where the gold extracted was sent to Portugal at the colonial period of Brazil.

At that time, the church had a very strong influence in both Portugal and Brazil. As a result, several churchs were erected in cities such as Ouro Preto, Mariana, Congonhas and Tiradentes.

Hi Joel, I really like this photo. This is such abeautiful building, well-captured in the soft afternoon (?) light. great composition and POV, with the tiled roofs in the foreground contributing greatly to the overall "feel" of the image.

Bela foto, Joel, contrastando os telhados coloniais, a igreja de formas barrocas e a montanha verde onipresente. Talvez alguns ajustes possam torná-la ainda mais viva! Vou tentar no WS, ok? Parabéns! Miguel.

olá Joel,
Boa perspectiva desta igreja.
Bons detalhes e luminosidade.
Cumprimentos
Teresa
