Photographer's Note
This Photo is the forth of a serie with this title and a personal "Theme", with the same name.
This photo was taken in a very old, tipical and historical village of Obidos at Portugal. This shot was made to the interesting skyline of this street and the beautiful flowers at right.
I added as a "Workshop" the original shot with the Tourists, so we have 2 photos in one post!
This is a well known placed where the tourists don't can drink water!!!. This the upper view of the "Wine House", in this nice lane.
I hope that you enjoy this new Tribute to Obidos, and Thanks in advance.

Beaucoup de couleurs très vives qui cohabitent, aucune ne gêne, je pense que tu as su couper la photo pour ne pas voir certaines choses moins jolies plus bas.

Ainda não fui a Óbidos com nenhuma máquina digital. Das vezes que lá passeei, levava uma máquina analógica e gastei, de umas vezes, dois filmes de diapositivos. De uma outra vez, levava 3 bobines de filme a preto e branco (cerca de 36 fotos em cada) e saí de lá sem nenhuma :).
Uma vila com óptimos locais para fotografar, principalmente na primavera. Ei-de lá voltar.
A sua fotografia está com muito bom contraste e saturação de cor.
Parabéns.

Hi Fernando, looks like a lovely place, the bougainville makes it a very realing picture.
But I think it could do with a bit more light and sharpness, so I made a workshop, hope you don't mind

Another nice shot of Obidos. I have been to the wine shop you have captured in this photo, they have great "Ginja". This photo is from a differnt perspective in which there are no people, I Like it. Nice job..........

Great detailed photo of this part of the "Wine House" together with these really beautiful flowers hanging above.
The WS gives a good view of the total, nice done, Fernando !

Very good compo. A good dispersion of light with that colorful flower blooms from the bougainvilla.

Tenho que regressar a Óbidos para a visitar com mais calma. Infelizmente quando lá estive, para além da falta de tempo, o tempo estava péssimo para fotos. É de facto uma localidade muito interessante (embora Marvão me pareça mais interessante confesso).

in VINHO veritas, vieux proverbe romain :)))
This is an excellent view giving a nice atmosphere like if we were under this lovely decoration. I like the way you caught it.
Compliments

Lovely scene here Fernando with the colourful dlowers over hanging the Wind House. I think I'd like to see more - what is below where you cut off. TFS, well done.

Your photos of Portugal help me a lot to imagine what the country looks like, and the atmosphere. It really gives me a lot of reasons to come and visit your country :)
This photo is a beautiful composition of colours, and as the title implies, "above tourist heads", it is so important to look upwards to see what beauties this village holds. The white walls of the houses and the many flower-decorated windows and streets add a magnificent touch :)

Obidos e uma das mais antigas cidades historicas Portuguesas aqui retratada em particular pormenor. Bom aproveitamento da frame inicial e um momento atractivo e bem composto. Só que as ginjas só indo lá.
Bom trabalho e vão todos à loja do Vinho, se puderem é claro :)))
