Countryside in the Mountains of Northern Portugal


Countryside in the Mountains of Northern Portugal

My first trip to Portugal was in October, several years ago, and Mauro surprised me with a road trip to Vigo, Spain. On the way, we passed many beautiful little farms as we drove through the mountains. I took as many pictures as I could along the way. This image is from a photograph that was alright, but needed a little help. The photo looked washed out, probably because of the bright sunshine in Portugal. So tonight I cropped the image to improve the composition, and adjusted the saturation and contrast to bring out the colors and patterns in the landscape of Portugal.
