Ermida de Sto António de Ussa Photo

Photographer’s Note

Back to TrekEarth after a long time.

This it's a photo of Ermida de Sto António de Ussa, and it's located on the old Sesmaria de Sto António, actually Herdade da Barroca d'Alva (Farm of Barroca d'Alva). It is presented vaulted (with 6m of height), with a uncertain date of its construction, only knowing that in XVIII century it is referenced in the memories of Jacome Ratton, at the time proprietor of that Farm.

Ermida de Sto. António de Ussa - localizada na antiga Sesmaria de Stº António, presentemente a Herdade da Barroca d' Alva, apresenta-se abobadada (com 6m de altura), não se sabendo ao certo a data da sua construção, apenas se sabe que no séc. XVIII é referenciada nas memórias de Jacome Ratton, na altura proprietário da Herdade.

It's good to be back :D

Greetings from Portugal,
António

Hi Antonio,
Nice angle of view, and great reflections. Enjoy very much the calm atmosphere you've portrayed. however I can see tiny bit of tilt? nonetheless a pleasant image.

Antonio, great shot with nice composition and colors.
However, I'd cut away like 1-2 cm of sky (just above the tree), because for me it looks excessive.
