Last Saturday I drove to Figueira da Foz which is about an hour away (I'm a slow driver!)
I posted a WS to show a bit more of this city including some doors which are quite unusually tall.


Figueira da Foz (pron. IPA: [fi'gɐiɾɐ dɐ fɔʃ]) is a city of the district of Coimbra, in Portugal. It is located at the mouth of the Mondego river, 40 km west of Coimbra, and sheltered by the Serra (mountain) da Boa Viagem. The municipality has about 62,601 inhabitants.

It is a coastal city with several beaches, summer and seaport facilities in the Atlantic Ocean coast. As a city of tourism it plays an important part in the centre of the country. A zone of legal gambling, you find here one of the biggest casinos of the Iberian Peninsula – the Casino Peninsular.

Hi Lurdes,
Everything caught my eye - including the landscape in your WS. Lucky for us you are a slow driver - that way you can take in your surroundings a lot better and we can enjoy all that beauty with you.
A real sharing experience.
Els

Excellent capture. Beautiful sharpness, details and colors.
Good POV to show this site.
Well done
Pierre

Olá Lurdes,

Uma belíssima paisagem, onde se destacam as várias tonalidades de azul.

Mais um ótimo trabalho teu.

Parabéns!

Até breve,

Sergio

Hi Lurdes,
You created a well composed picture of this port, the sea and sky are of beautiful colours and the gulls contribute to the athmosphere of the picture.
Pleasant to look at it.
Regards,
Tibi

Hi Lurdes,
A fine peaceful sgot of this nice looking harbour. I like the activities in ports, or like this view, tranquility (appearantly those little ports are or busy or not :) Anyhow, fine crisp colours and those flying gulls are a real bonus!
TFS.
Hans

:) Later...

Hermosos colores muy bien expuestos.
Una escena que transmite paz... el mar, los barcos... el cielo azul...
Muy bonito Lurdes.
Saludos, JL.

Que pena que já estive tantas vêzes em Lisboa, mas nunca fui até Coimbra/Figueira...
Não vão faltar oportunidades!
Um abraço,
