I took this picture while out for a stroll in a little fishing community called 'Trafaria' in Portugal. I just loved all the colours on these little boats. That's the city of Lisbon in the backround. (title edit: 'Boat Yard' wasn't creative enough :)

Hi Vee. Great shot here. You have captured a lot in this picture. Great perspective. Well done and welcome to Caedes!!!

PS. Looks like a awful lot of rubbish on the beach, pity. It looks like such a nice place.

Great capture...I love the mix of boat colours, the calm waters and the lovely little town in the distance. Nice work. Welcome to Caedes.

Don't you just love Portugal?
I wouldn't know, because it is one of the very few countries in Europe that I have never visited. Actually, I was going to, but could not pass the border in the Costa Verde!
But you know what? In my company in Holland I have 7 Portuguese electricians working for me. And some of them have become nice friends. And they all invite me to come with them in the summer hollidays to Portugals. So maybe one day..
Anyway, about your photo, since you are new here...it is indeed a very nice picture. Now just imagine what the photo would be like if you stepped forward, up to the green boat, sat down a little in front of it, so we could see that boat filling up the front picture and in the back we'd see the little boats lined up in the water? No rubbish to be seeen on the beach, just boats. That would have made this photo a winner!

If you can't find the words, you may as well shoot it...

Ya, I had high heels on, didn't want to step onto the beach! lol :) I know what you mean.
I'm not very good with photoshop or else I would have loved to get rid of the stuff on the beach.

The portuguese have many boats, but they shoud clean their beach. The picture is very interesting, good composed and nice colored. Good job.
