  • The rooftops of Lisbon

    The city of Lisbon, with the statue of the Sanctuary of Christ the King and the suspension bridge, the Ponte 25 de Abril. The sun is setting.

    The city of Lisbon lay before me as I looked out the window of my apartment. We had quite a view from the living room window, so one night I made this time blend photo of the city. In the background you’ll find the statue of the Sanctuary of Christ the King and the suspension bridge, the Ponte 25 de Abril, linking Lisbon with Almada on the other side of the river.

    I was lucky there was any sort of sunset that night as the weather had been terrible all day long with heavy rain rolling over the city, making the cobbled streets slippy.

  • The chihuahua model

    I spotted a woman walking past with her two dogs. Moments before, the chihuahua was barking his head off, but he quietened down when he saw me. An obvious poser, and he just loves the camera!

  • A bridge over reflections

    Early one morning in Valencia, before the sun rose, I travelled to the Museu de les Ciències Príncipe Felipe to photograph the area.

    Pictured above is the CaixaForum next door, with the graceful arch of the Pont l’Assut de l’Or bridge in front of it. They are reflected in the waters surrounding the science museum. The sun is just about to peek over the horizon, but some high-level clouds helped light the scene in lovely purples.

    Technically, this is a vertical panorama and I wish I had more space as the converging lines of my perspective can be seen in the leaning buildings to the left. Maybe I should have removed them?

  • Walking by the stall

    Late one evening in Valencia I went walking with my son and, of course, I took my camera with me. He loved walking around the city. It was warm, and full of people living their lives. I noticed a man walking by himself near this stall, but he wasn’t much more than a silhouette in the darkness.

  • Stop crows walking on people

    It’s a serious problem all over the world. Crows are walking on people. In Cork, they put up signs hoping to discourage the crows, but instead the crows just walk on the signs.

  • Michael Collins and his hat

    Michael Collins on the Grand Parade isn’t the only one wearing a nice hat. 🙂

  • Elevador da Bica from another Tram

    One of the trams of the Elevador da Bica photographed by me as I went past in another tram along Largo Calhariz. A famous sight in Lisbon, and I was lucky to catch this photo as we trundled along.

  • Lines of the Street

    The black and white bands caught my attention on this street in Valencia.

  • The dolphins of L’Oceanogràfic Valencia

    A dolphin jumps out of the water with a blue ball in it's mouth.

    We visited the aquarium in Valencia while on a trip there, like most tourists do. It was a remarkable experience, even if I felt sad that a Beluga whale had what must be a small tank for such a large creature.

    The dolphin show was a sight to see. Commentary was in Spanish, so I couldn’t follow it, but the dolphins there seemed happy, and bonded well with their trainers.

  • The Diagon Alley Singer

    In the Diagon Alley section of “The Wizarding World of Harry Potter” in Florida we were entertained by singers and dancers. This woman was first out but she was soon joined by others to sing for us.

  • Of Tae and Talk

    There’s something to be said for enjoying life while you can and enjoying a cup of tea. On a nice June day in 2021, late in the afternoon, this man was relaxing in the shade of his truck. No more sales for today.
