Evora from on high

            Evora from on high.

Shot hand-held with a Sony NEX7 and the SEL1855(55) kit lens.  

The Portugese town of Evora has much to recommend: the Chapel of Bones is fascinating if macabre, the 14thC cathedral well preserved.  This vista captures the 1stC Roman temple, later described as a the 'Diana', and the impressive aqueduct snaking down from the hills built in the 1500s.  In the distant cork forest atop the hills are extensive megalithic stone circles, best described as ancient,  This image was captured while standing on the roof of the cathedral, which is open to exploration.  

A fascinating and recommended destination.
