Arcos de Valdevez, a photo from Viana do Castelo, North

Photographer's Note

Hello you all,

Here are a friendly and dynamic town, located northeast of Portugal close to the Spanish border, Arcos de Valdevez.

I don't really know the story, its neighboring city, Ponte da Barca, most famous, located a few kilometers away, stealing the show.

But it is good to walk on the shady banks of the Vez on warm summer days.

See you soon, Dino.

Hi Armandino,
yes it looks good to have a walk here, especially over the old stone bridge over the river. Perhaps with some refreshments at a sidewalk cafe :) Good pov here, most of the bridge is visible and parts of the town. The colors are good, light also, Tfs
Have a nice evening.
Boa

Hello Armandino,
I have very much enjoyed looking at your gallery - your pictures are excellent.
The old bridge and village are beautifully taken. The textured ripples on the water and the gentle reflections are lovely. The partly cloudy sky gives a feeling of summer.
A very well managed shot.
Regards, Ann

Hello Dino,
the view of the arch stone bridge is fine with the created perspective to be superb.The light and the colours are well managed with the clarity to brings out the details of the shot.

Bonjour Armandino,
Le vieux pont médiéval offre une belle perspective et invite notre regard à franchir la rivière pour découvrir cette petite ville sympathique et tranquille entourée de verdure. Les couleurs sont naturelles, et le ciel parcouru de quelques nuages blancs complète à merveille cette jolie carte postale.
Amicalement,
Christian

Hi Armandino!
Good to see you keep posting photos of your region (I've only posted a couple of them from Viana, need to go there more often:)!
I like your pov here! A good way to show the old bridge, a few houses and the top of the church. A beautiful sky also! Really the North of Portugal!

Bonjour Dino,
Le point de vue et la netteté donnent une agréable ptofondeur à l'image. J'apprécie l'exposition bien contrôlée, les couleurs naturelles. J'aime le ciel et l'inclusion du feuillage en coin. Excellente qualité. Bravo.
Bonne journée
Amicalement
Joël

Olá Dino,
buena elección de este encuadre, has creado una bonita perspectiva del puente, que lleva nuestra mirada hacia la otra orilla, donde la bella arquitectura del pueblo y las nubes blancas en el cielo, completan una imagen con un alto nivel estético.
La luz es magnífica, y nos ofrece unos colores muy naturales.
Un trabajo muy elegante.
Um abraço,
Josep
