The area around our local Lidl is one of my favourite spots to take photographs. Today I took out the 3€ Casio for some shots of the nearby abandoned building and the supermarket.

Urban photography in Oiã, 22 January 2023
It was a lovely sunny day today in Oiã, so it was natural to head out for a walk with the Sony Mavica MVC-FD81 and #Nintendo #Gameboy for the #ShittyCamaraChallenge #1990sCameraChallenge. Just some random images around the Zon Industrial de Oiã.

Stuck in a car park in Gaia, 20 June 2022

A day out in Porto, 20 June 2022

Hidden gates and doors, 16 March 2022
The dust from the Saharan storms are creating a strange yellow light in the skies over Portugal. On the way home I came across a gate I had never noticed before so it seemed like a nice theme for the morning: hidden and forgotten gates.
Another abandoned house in Oliveira do Bairro, 2 December 2021
Tucked away in the back streets of Oliveira do Bairro are these derelict buildings. Behind the building the taggers have been busy.
An abandoned house in Oliveira do Bairro, 2 December 2021
This house opposite the post office in Oliveira has been abandoned for decades. On the front someone has stencilled, ‘they have guns, but we have flowers,’ a reference to the 1974 carnation revolution in Portugal that overthrew the fascist government.

Off to Coimbra by train. Always a great way to travel.
More playing with pano, from 12 November 2021
I took some of the raw photos from yesterday’s panoramas and put them through a stitching program called Image Composite Editor (ICE). They look much better, but of course you’ll need to turn you phone on its side to see them in their full glory.
Playing with pano, 12 November 2021
As versatile as the Pocket 2 is, I seem to be captivated with taking panoramas with it at the moment. Today we headed to the coastal town of Barra, near Aveiro.

On the walk home this evening I had an opportunity to get up close to one of my favourite abandoned houses in Oiã.
Abandoned in Meco, 24 August 2021
This house in Meco has been abandoned for decades and is beginning to collapse. However, the ivy-covered door with its beautiful cast knocker is a joy to behold. https://keithdevereux.blogspot.com/2021/08/abandoned-in-meco-24-august-2021.html
Day trip to Sesimbra, 9 August 2021

An undersea vista, 16 July 2021
Deeply embedded in Portugal’s history and culture, azulejos date as far back as the thirteenth century. The word azulejo stems from the Arabic, meaning ‘small polished stone’. Originally, they were fairly simple structures cut into geometric shapes in neutral tones, and the tiles were used to cover up the large areas of blank wall thatContinue reading “An undersea vista, 16 July 2021”
