Hi Mariusz,your posts are always very useful, and often show hidden jewels that Portugal is rich in and of which many ignore their existence, a bit like it happens in my country, and from these things we understand the validity of this site. Beautiful architecture, imposing and rich in decorations, another lucky day also for what concerns the light, the result is every very brilliant. Have a nice evening and thanks,Luciano

Hello Mariusz, I see that this was taken 12 years ago, better weather than your recent trip(?)
The point of view is very good as the features of the buildings are nicely outlined against the brilliant blue sky.
The tree lined drive is a good leading line.
Kind regards, Jean.

Hi Mariusz,

It's always nice to find a hidden gem that the tourist brochures and guidebooks have largely overlooked. An unusual building displaying features of both a castle and a Church. Good sharpness and colour. Tfs!

Hello mariusz,
First, thanks for your encoureging critique, appreciated.
In Tomar, we saw the castle from street level in the old town, but did not have the time to climb up the hill for a closer view.
From the POV you took this beautiful picture, we get a fantastic sight of the bells and towers, Gothic decorative elements and the garden in front - something that was not well seen from the town level.
Fine outcome on a bright day.
Good afternoon,
Ike

Hello Mariusz,
Wow, this looks like an amazing building complex with lots of photography opportunities. The impressive buildings in the middle with high walls and many small towers are nicely framed by the walls and green trees.

Hello Mariusz,
Tomar became also one of my favourite places in Portugal.
I visited this small town on my first trip to Portugal in 1985 and much later in december 2014 I went there again together with a friend who visited it for the first time.
Good choice of point of view with the big bell in front of the blue sky on top of the convento. We also see some of the fantastic opulent Manueline architecture on the side facade.
Not too many visitors that summer day but the person in red clothes is easily noticed.
Nice composition with the greenery at both sides of the lane.
Best regards, Paul

Hello Mariusz,
A beautiful postcard, indeed. The convent stands like a fortress.
