Like many European Cities, Lisbon is full of color and texture. What makes Lisbon special though, is the fact that it’s way overdue for a pressure washing. It has a wet, mildewy, grungy feel that I found quite appealing for photography. It sort of falls under that “beautiful decay” category.
My last post, Island Bay, was a beautiful and serene seascape with a distant island on the horizon. Today, It’s a dirty, grungy city scape. So what will the next post be? You’re going to have to stay tuned to find out.
While I can’t promise that I’ll always make sense, I ‘can’ promise to always provide a variety of interesting interestingness that keeps things interesting.
