Facing the Sun...

Good afternoon, friends!

Here's a new entry for the #treetuesday initiative.

This shot was taken right at the doorstep of Spain, still in Portugal... but a few meters away from border with Spain. The place is called Rio de Onor and it is a very small and interesting little village, since half of it belongs to Portugal... and the other half to Spain.

This small forest lies at the entrance of the village and it's used by locals to stretch their legs on their daily strolls. I was hoping to see a fox, a deer or some other wild life... but the day was hot and I think the animals were all sleeping. 😴

I rarely take photos against the sun, since that's one of the first advice I got when I had my first camera: "Never take a shot facing the sun, it will come out horribly!" - but I think this one came out really well, with all the sun rays being visible in the picture. 😎

I hope you liked this shot. Please leave a comment down below. Cheers!

Yup, the photo actually turned out all right with great clarity and depth of field. I like it 😊

Thanks a lot, I'm glad to hear that! 😎

I like it! 😀 - Really nice shot against the sun! - Mine usually turns out blurred and a complete mess. 😄

I thought this one would come out terrible, I beat the odds. 🤣

I love strange little places like this. I wonder if the village has invented a Spanish-Portuguese creole of sorts to easily communicate with each other. I don't know enough Portuguese to know if it's as closely related as Italian-Spanish, but it does sound very similar. I speak some very bad Italian, but I was able to use it in Ecuador and slowly convert it to Spanish little by little each week.

No, they haven't. There's no need for that. When spoken slowly, both languages are mutually intelligible! 🤗

Seems like a nice and warm day. Happy Sunday. ✌

It was quite hot, indeed! Thanks for your comment.
