The nice thing of going through archive is finding little time capsules like this stroll in the Tagus south back sometime ago. #lisbon #tagus #portugal #archive #t3mujinpack

Having spent quite a lot of time lately in the office means that my photographic subjects have been close to my commutes. #lisbon #portugal #architecture #street #t3mujinpack

Despite being late June, Summer hasn’t hit the shores of Portugal in full force, so people put the few sunny days into good use.

Some days ago I shared an older gallery when I went after the partying and celebration in Lisbon’s older quarters during the whole month of June with a came. This year didn’t actively went after it, bit when you’re there with a camera…You can find more of my recent shots here: www.flickr.com/photos/t3…

Buying a ticket to the party! The night before June 13th, the eve of Saint Anthony, is Lisbon’s longest night, in a month of celebration welcoming the summer. And in almost everywhere you can feel the vibe, specially in the older quarters, but also in unusual places like a ticket booth of the subway. #santospopulares #santoantonio #street #lisbon #lisboa #sonyrx100 #vsco #snapshot #instagram www.instagram.com/p/ByoIadg…

Slow days, preparing the way for the summer slumber… I know that “time flies!” has been used too many times, but feels right today: seems like it was yesterday that I came here for a few days, to take a rest after the busy Winter Solstice in Trás-Os-Montes. #beirabaixa #portugal #portrait #snapshot #shotononeplus

A big thank you to the organization for the invitation!!

Another year, another edition of the International Iberian Mask Festival (FIMI) that now reaches its end . Like always, dozens of groups from the Iberian Peninsula and beyond gather in Lisbon for a few days. I rarely takes photos there, each year I’m more focused on having a good time and seeing old friends, but I always end up taking some snapshots!
