[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Cathedral in the city of Evora. Monument of Romanesque-Gothic transitional architecture, with three majestic naves. This monument is connected to many of the great spiritual nad cultural events of Portugal. It is common belief that the flags of Vasco da Gama’s fleet, bound for the Orient, were blessed in the first presbytery of the Cathedral, in 1497. The archway of the sanctuary is a rare example of hybrid Plateresque architecture, dated back to 1529.

dear Mikolaj Cava,
the faces and figures of 6 men of sculptures are very interesting.
each feeling may be expressed each characteristic of human nature.
in my feeling, old people looked into human spirit far more deep than modern people.
the light and the shadow made by light from side show us not only cubic figures but also the depth of our spirits of both old and now.
thank you,
Akihisa

Hi Mikolaj, A good perspective showing these statues aligned. The nice bright sun shining shows much more details than would be visible in the shade. Very interesting notes. TFS. Murray.
