The Buildings of Lisbon

The Buildings of Lisbon

A photographer I admire once told me he takes about 3 great photos a year. As an absolute amateur I have arguably never taken an great photo, and certainly if I upload a few photos of architectural scenes that I fancied during a 12 day break in Lisbon, is it likely any of them are great even by my own standards? But each of these caught my eye, and in each case I achieved what I set out to achieve when I took the picture. So until my standards improve or my own tastes change this is my view of Lisbon.
