It also appears to be a great place to pick up some nice fried eats. These pictures show why I lug my tripod and cable release with me on holidays. long shutter and movements were the call of the night.
It was a Thursday, that apparently is fair day in Peniche. Day of Farturas, here in the photo being a fartu, hehehe. Rude I know! Farturas are basically really fat Churros, "What are Churros?" I hear you think... let me see if I can show you....
Ok so when there are options........
and more options......
and low and behold more options.....
you get in close to the eager assistance....
Stare and the fabulous flavours abound.....
Then you order! No matter how scary the decor!
That is the Churros story. :) If you don't order the flavour filled ones as seen above, then they come hot from the fryer in Portugal, with Cinnamon and sugar, a lot like hot donuts in Australia and the States. Just bloody delicious.
Then you get on some of the below and see if you can find the Churros again.
The good old Dodgey Dodgem cars.
This ride was a little crazy as the movements show. Still, it looks pretty.
Spin, spin, spin, spin and round she goes. Where she stops nobody knows, but is normally with the kid who ate too many farturas, and so needs to throw up.
The tea cup ride with Giraffes for some Portugese reason.
hey garth i'm impressed with the the affect that you have going on with the above photos. it gives them another dimension.
ReplyDeleteyeah I know it really is cool isn't it. I like the sense of movement and hustle and bustle it gives. Makes a still photo say "action".
ReplyDeleteMate are you still working in analog land with these shots...?
ReplyDeleteNope am on digital at the moment on Marta's 1000D but also running black and white analog on the side. Why do you ask sir?
