Photographer’s Note
Famous for its creamy cheeses, Serpa is a sleepy agricultural hilltop town of white houses.
The town itself, which is walled, was founded in 400 BC by the Turdelos, one of the original peoples of Iberia.
Known to the Romans by the same name, Serpa was later conquered by Geraldo Sempavor in 1166, taken again by the Moors and finally regained in 1232.
Visitors to Serpa are sometimes serenaded by the town's traditional singers, who are genuine descendants of medieval troubadours.
Of Moorish origin, Serpa's castle was rebuilt by King Dinis in the late 13th century, but badly damaged during the Spanish invasion in 1707.

Is it something you do when you write your note that makes all the tech information and all the critiques tiny? I need my magnifying glass! ;D
This is a perfect example of good light management. I particularly like the light coming through the open doorways.

Ola Rui,
Your beautiful composition of light and shadow conveys the sense of an ancient walled town well; it is nicely supported by your excellent note.
