  • Hi Antti. I hurried myself to answer your kind words, because, in your place, I would wait until the weather was a little more "pleasant" to visit Marvão and Reguengos de Monsaraz, because I have been in Marvão in 13 of November in the chestnut fair and I was, literally, dying of cold. I can imagine now... They are zones of border, interior and very very high. Moreover, it was fog and it did not have great visibility for the magnificent sight that, in days of clean sky we can see. Therefore, if you go, you try, at least, that it is with good visibility, even because it is much better to take good pictures. Relatively close to Marvão thre is, also, the beautiful city of Castelo de Vide that has a zone, judiaria, that you maybe like to visit, as well as the miradouro (belvedere?) of Senhora da Penha that offers a pretty sight all over the city. But, now or later, you should really, visit those places. Best regards, Rosa

  • Just a few words. First, to say that this album is magnificent, as it would be to wait. And, second, place to make a small correction. Reguengos de Monsaraz is pretty, but what I exactly wanted to say was Monsaraz that is to some quilómetros of distance. I make this confusion constantly, I hope I am in time to correct it. It's because the name is almost the same... please forgive me. Ciao. Rosa

  • Dearest Antti, An album full of the charms of he past! Many pictures appeared blank with a red cross, still a Webshots fantasy I think; I loved 14, 26, 31 ,32 ,34 and the best is for me 44; Thank You so much to have awarded my efforts by looking so deeply my Indochina albums!!!! I feel very touched; I have posted a new one to-day but there is a new time problems on Webshots as the scores of these 2 albums don't change since posting despite numerous messages of Friends having looked all the pictures! Have a nice week, Jacques

  • Hello Antti ! What a delightful album of 'Castelo dos Mouros'! I love historical sites like these. It has so much to offer in terms of architecture, ambience and grandeur! I particularly liked pictures #2,4,14 and 32. Finland to Portugal is quite a shift, but you seem to have naturalized yourself pretty well. Thank you so very much for sharing these splendid pictures and for your kind comments in my 'Images of Burma' album. I am very touched by your appreciation. Best wishes, Suresh from India.

  • Morjens AnttiOlavi Hienoja kuvia, Portugalissa nähtävästi hellettä piisaa. Täällä peräpohjolassa on nyt vähän viileämpää, tosin on ollut todella lämmintä näin syyskeleiksi. Ruskan värit taas hienoimmillaan siellä missä lehti on vielä puussa. Terveisin Aatos
