When a seasoned photographer, with great knowledge of the area, warns you that a snowfall is expected between 7:00 and 9:00 all you must do is wake up early and wait for it. That’s what me, João (the cooperative model in the photos), and Nicole did.

Winter really isn’t the best season to go after nature and landscapes at Trás-Os-Montes. Unless you happen to get snowfall, or even beautiful mornings with misty woods covered with ice, you lack the stunning colors of Spring or Autumn. But the truth is that bleak side of the region pleases me a lot.

One of the things “caretos” do at Podence during Carnival is hit you with the pompon hanging from their hoods, I was about to be hit with one as I took this photo. #careto #entrudo #podence #portugal

Already home after a long weekend taking photos of more than one Entrudo (traditional carnival in Portugal) event. But in the end, carnival is whenever a man wants, so I’ll be posting a few more photos from these last days throughout this week.

Our small piece of big wild north!

Always look good for the camera! Starting the day at Góis, going after one of Portugal’s traditional carnivals. #entrudo #carnaval #carnival #gois #aldeiasdexisto #portugal #fujixt2 #vsco

This will be a long weekend that will only end Tuesday, going after the ancient carnival traditions of Central and Northern Portugal. But started very differently, with a photowalk in the narrow streets of Lisbon.

A brief intermission from Old Delhi, to go back to the streets of my Lisbon. Any excuse is great for going out and take some shots, even if the day was bleak like it was yesterday. A new camera and new bag was mine yesterday, for a brief walk around the Graça neighborhood.#lisbon #street #t3mujinpack
