Beautiful shot! With the Moorish influence on architecture, there must be a lot of beautiful buildings in Lisbon. It must be a treat for a photographer.
Thanks so much Kathleen. I only wish that we could have had more time in Portugal. I did get quite a few ok pics out the window of our motorhome as we drove by Lisbon. Unfortunately we were on a fairly tight schedule to get to Italy. Maybe next time! :o)
