The "United brothers" - Lisboa - Photo Oct2005



A typical Portuguese humble street restaurant used by common people. No refinement here but very good genuine food, generally. Places like this abound at any street. Notice the beer barrels outside (probably waiting for refill or even to be used inside - these places have sometimes a tiny public space inside). Irmaos unidos can be roughly translated to United brotehrs.

Big towns are fertile places for these odd images. After years of good service, this old washing machine was left in a parking area. The composition is banal but I really enjoy these absurd scenes from everyday life and did not resist to post.

Resting place for tired pirates - Photo 01Oct2005


Today, I went to the racing circuit of Estoril, near Lisbon. Among many different backstage and race images (some will follow with the next posts), I found this interesting sight of a place chosen as resting area by one of the competition teams. They use an agressive symbol but we must conclude that even the worst pirates need a calm place to rest after their adventures...
