A Castle in Your Backyard

Sintra, Portugal

As we were walking through the village of Sintra
I looked up and there was the Castle of the Moors!

Well seen and captured, I love the ornate and delicate detail on the houses compared to the rough texture of the castle walls. V

Love how the roof edges seem to echo the crenelations of the fortress. A wonderful composition.

I'll be checking the hillsides, but I'm pretty sure we don't have anything that resembles that around here.

Very impressive photo. Very nice modern foreground to employ for this old castle. V

serrated/crenellated roofs/walls add such liveliness to the buildings...factor in the slope of the hillside, and this is such an excellent image.....V

Examples of different centuries of architecture. Th castle certainly chose the high ground.
Helen Betts01-Oct-2018 13:49
Such a contrast in architecture, and yet the house on the left vaguely mirrors the towers of the castle. V.
