Rumex (II), 5.9.25

This image was made on our first walking day in Portugal this past May. We were, at this point, a bit above Pinhão. We started out in the rain, and we had a good climb as we began. but nothing that did us in. I found the colors of these plants to be lovely. Of course stopping to shoot flora also gave me a bit of time to catch my breath from the climb.

Droplets on a Grape Vine, Near Alijó, Portugal, 5.13..25

I love to revisit my photos from past trips. If I scroll quickly through the ones I made while on our Douro walk it really reminds me of what wonderful walks we had! This was from a day where, toward the end, we hit a good amount of rain. Obviously, though, it had also rained earlier (the mud we had to avoid walking through made that quite obvious!). Photos from our travels are often cross-posted, appearing as well on my traveling times blog.

Porto Wall with Graffiti by Nino Costah, 5.17.25

I’m trying to go through all my photos from the year so far. Maybe this is the year I’ll finally manage to do that — usually I begin and then get distracted by a photo and start working on it rather than completing the task.

And gee, that happened again when I landed on this photo! But hey, I made it all the way to May 17 before stopping. That’s not too bad. Right?
