Ponte de Lima, Portugal April 15,2008\n
\n
\nThis bridge in northern Portugal is home to a local bi-weekly market day that has been going, without stop, since 1125. After 900 years, these vendors have it down cold and you can find everything you might ever need here!\n
\n
\nI found the bridge with small cathedral and a beautiful river to paint.\n
\n
\nAfterwards, I simply turned around, walked out on the bridge to paint these distant buildings reflected in the water. A lot of quick strokes, as the light was rapidly changing.\n
