A Struggle

I watched this man struggle up this long, narrow staircase to his front door with his groceries. Despite the charm of the Alfama it is a difficult place to navigate.

I hope you offered him assistance after he starred in this most beautiful shot. V

I noticed this in many places in Europe - not old age/disabled friendly - you've captured this very well ! V

Interesting POV, he's struggling but probably been up these steps thousands of times. Sharp capture. V

Sometimes the better photos of life are also the saddest....

a touc9ing image...certainly some strength would be needed to negotiate the hilly streets, not so easy for elderly or any mobility-challenged locals...

This candid speaks volumes, Neil.. Very well done!!

A very compelling image,mostly due to the downward looking POV. Excellent capture quality as always. ~BV~
