Ponte Luis 1

[John 2]

The Ponte Luis 1 is probably the best known of the bridges that span the river gorge in Porto, Portugal. I noticed the viewpoint whilst enjoying a beer in the Café overlooking the river, located at the bottom of one of its piers.

Nicely captured.

I like the angle, John. Big powerful diagonals showing the strength of the structure. Nice work.

Thanks John, thanks Greg.

Somehow enjoying a beer at a cafe in Porto seems counter-intuitive, but the results are certainly worth it. Good strong image that is well processed, although given the angles and diagonals, I might have concluded this was the result of imbibing Porto's famous fortified wines...

Thanks Manfred. Strangely, I rarely drink beer at home, preferring a glass or two of Malbec …. or anything else on offer. But in the heat of the mid day sun abroad I occasionally enjoy a beer - but I would never allow it to interfere with my photography.

You've got the angle just perfect, John. I love unique architectural shots ......... and this is certainly one!

An exceptional result, in my opinion.

Just my two cents worth. I love it.
