Castelo, Portugal
Originally uploaded by randubnick.
Time for another picture from Portugal, of a castle north of Porto with a view of the ocean. I took this picture on my first trip to Portugal. Mauro had planned a day trip to Vigo, Spain, as a surprise, and on the drive back to Porto, I took this photo. I think this was taken near Viano do Castelo. In the original photo, there was an airplane banner in the sky that announced "Obrigado Portugal" (Thanks, Portugal) That post-election slogan was everywhere during my first visit, and it made me smile. Tonight I copied the image and used Painter IX to (reluctantly) remove the tiny banner for the sake of the composition. With or without the banner, it's always great to be there, and I still agree with the sentiment. Obrigada, Portugal.
