Architecture in Monsanto Photo

Photographer’s Note

Monsanto es una aldea de Portugal de la region de Beira.

Perteneciente a las "Aldeias históricas de Portugal" fue considerado como el pueblo mas portugues, su encanto medieval lo hace irrepetible, perderse por su calles laberinticas y subir a lo alto a contemplar la vista desde su castillo es una autentica experiencia.

Monsanto esta enclavado en la vertiente de una pequeña pero esxcarpada montaña, carasterizada por grandes moles de granito que muchas veces forman parte de las viviendas. En lo alto del monte asentado en moles graniticas se encuentra el imponente castillo de Monsanto ahora ya en estado de ruina, pero que aun conserva bien su muralla, patio de armas y torreones.

Dos WS.

Monsanto is a village in Portugal in the region of Beira.

Belonging to the "Historic Villages of Portugal" was considered the most Portuguese people, their medieval charm makes it unique, missing by his labyrinthine streets and climb to the top to contemplate the view from his castle is an authentic experience.

Monsanto is nestled on the slopes of a small but esxcarpada mountain carasterizada by large moles granite that often are part of the housing. At the top of Mount settled in moles is the imposing granite castle Monsanto now in a state of ruin, but still retains his wall, ground and towers.

Thanks for showing us my country, in particular this beautiful region called Beiras. Myself, I know very little about it but it is very high in my list of Portuguese regions I plan to visit. It is a beautiful shot with great colours and sharpness. Well done.

Hei Charo,

Dette er en interessant detalj fra den landsbyen du beskriver i notatet!
Jeg liker perspektivet hvor du ser opp, og stenstrukturen tar seg godt ut mot den blå himmelen...
En fin komposisjon med gode detaljer!

Bonjour Charo,
Je reconnais le contexte de ce village assez extraordinaire dont tu nous a déjà montré de très belles images. Le maison enchâssées dans les blocs de granite sont spectaculaires. L'image est belle et toujours aussi bien réalisée. Bravo.
Bonne journée
Amicalement

Ciao Charo,
Monsanto dev'essere un bellissimo villaggio, l'architettura tipica in pietra che si staglia contro il cielo azzurro è splendida, e tu sei riuscita a completare magnificamente la scena inserendo il verde dell'albero sulla sinistra.
Ottima composizione con un perfetto sharp.
Un carissimo abbraccio.

Hola amiga Charo,
buena perspectiva hacia el cielo azul en la toma, donde la interesante arquitectura se mezcla con las rocas mientras se destaca sobre él de forma elegante.
La integración de esta arquitectura en el paisaje de rocas es impresionante, en tus WS podemos verlo con mucha claridad.
Me gusta por su sencillez y su fuerza visual. Bien hecha.
Un fuerte abrazo,
Pili y Josep
PS: mañana nos vamos de vacaciones, primero a Toledo y después a Andorra, quizá no podamos conectarnos, pero tomaremos muchas fotos, seguro.
Por cierto, Pili también ha votado tus fotos del concurso de Mondáriz, mucha suerte.
