Funchal celebrations

Having gone up in the cable car in Funchal we had a stroll and upon turning a corner we were greeted by this amazing display of colour overhanging our heads.  They look like pieces of paper concertinaed and then tied in the middle, then attached to the wires over head.  There were various colours adorning the streets, alleyways and  up the steps that led to the church.  Such an amazing sight.

This one was taken at the top of the stairs looking down onto Funchal.

Last one of them just to show the steps up, with the girlie's of course.

Weekly photo catch up

Wildlife

Taken in Funchal, Madeira.  Lizards everywhere, this one was peeking his head out of  the stones in a wall. I love these little guys they remind me of my childhood - playing with newts in the garden pond!!  There is a connection honest!

Low light

These were taken as we left Santa Cruz, Tenerife. I'm fairly pleased with these considering I was on a moving boat - albeit a big boat.

Urban

The next two images were also taken in Sant Cruz, Tenerife.  I was blown away by the graffiti that decorated the town and it was decoration - in my eyes.  No foul language (not that I could read anyway!) just incredible art work.

I have several more graffiti images, but I'll post them another day.  So that is me up to date with the weekly photos.  Thanks for looking and reading and hope you enjoy.
