“Porto’s Port Boats” : 9th September 2011
Today I present you with a themed series of three photos.
Porto, in the north of Portugal, not only gave its name to the country, but also to the most famous product of the city, fortified wine.
On the Douro river one can numerous boats like these, laden with barrels in the back and bearing the names of the manufacturers.
One can only assume that they are for touristic purposes these days, not to mention advertising.
Nonetheless, they are very attractive and a good target for the photographer.
Larger versions of these photographs can be found here, here and here.
