Old Stone Wall & Painted Ad


I've seen this construction company ad a thousand times from the highway but have never been close to it.

Contrast (IV)


Oeiras and environs used to be a farm area until the 20th century, so I believe there must have been a farm here once before the concrete invasion. Now the old house and chapel at Sassoeiros are literally surrounded by ugly buildings (it was quite common for wealthy families to have their own chapel).

Old White House


This photo could have been taken at an old village lost in the countryside.
 Actually I found this house at about 500 metres from my place in a neighbourhood I seldom go for a walk.
Temperatures have dropped to 17ºC and it was raining all night long... Crazy weather!

It's the first word crossing my mind when I look at the abandoned house, bare trees and grey sky.
