Please read the blog I posted today as well – “proposal accepted by the owners of the castle at Evoramonte”  My proposal was accepted to photograph at the castle at Evoramonte. The following images are some scouting shots I took yesterday to get ideas for placing the fabric constructions and most probably myself on and around the the castle. No dragons yet …. The castle was built in 1531 and designed by the well-known architects and brothers – Diogo De Arruda and Francisco De Arruda who designed many buildings in Portugal – among them the famous Belem tower in Lisbon. The walled town surrounding the castle is much older.

    2. Hi Sherry

      Love the photos. A castle with bows on it! It is hard to believe it was built so long ago. I hope you are loving Portugal. Looks like a wonderful place. Thanks for posting.
