Looking down the Rua dos Clerigos
Close up of the pink building, I couldn't work out whether that was a small window or a decoration
Igreja dos Clerigos, from the front [above] and from the side [below]
The other end of the building sits the famous tower
This is actually two churches {Carmo and Camelitas} separated by a three foot house . I would have liked to have seen more of the tiny house but that is the part with the scaffolding. It was lived in until the 1980's. A close up below of one of the churches.
The sides are being renovated so you can only see the true colours on a small strip at the bottom.
I like the shadow of the tree on this building
That's all for this week. I can hear fireworks outside. How can people afford them, they are so expensive? I heard a lot last night and I daresay there will be a lot on Saturday night too. They are quite pretty but I don't think they are good for the environment or the animals either.
But whatever you are doing, enjoy yourself.
I love your anniversary rabbit art. Very clever. All of your art is so well done. Your bags are always impressive. So many great photos. Places I won't ever see in person. I appreciate them very much. Thank you for sharing with FFO and have a nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteLovely art and photos
ReplyDeleteYour bunnies are fun, and that tree is gorgeous. And I still love those bags. Thanks fro linking up the tutorial. Have a fantastic weekend and week ahead.
ReplyDeleteI love all your doodle art, especially the bunnies. Thanks for the bag tutorial. Lovely photos of the two churches. Too bad the tiny house was covered with scaffolding. Happy FFO.
ReplyDeleteOh, there are so many things to look at in your posts. Here we have the quirky Doodlewash characters, the stylish crumbs bags, and impressive trees. The architecture in Porto is fantastic; some buildings almost look like decorative cakes with all the details. And those narrow structures! Not to mention the burial - so much nicer than the graffiti we often see in cities.

Wonderful scenes and artwork, Lin! I was in Porto once and I think I saw the church but can’t remember the tiny house! Maybe I should go again - it is a lovely place. I also like the shadows of the tree on the white walls of that house. Thanks for sharing with Monday Window. - PR
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos and artwork. Is there a specific reason for the fireworks? I don't like them when we have them around the neighborhood . They used to frighten our dogs horribly.
ReplyDeleteBonfire Night (also known as Guy Fawkes Night) is celebrated on November 5 in the United Kingdom to commemorate the failure of the Gunpowder Plot of 1605. There are a lot of firework displays and a lot of people buy fireworks to use in their own gardens.
