During my trip to Lisbon – Portugal , we walk through the center of city.

Often we looking at main landmarks for take the tourist photography but it’s interesting to keep eyes open, take breath, step back,  and looking for some nice details to photographs.

In case of the city of lisbon, you can discover lovely ceramics or porcelains on walls of buildings in many place of the city.

Some frontage buildings are entirely cover with mosaic of  ceramics, but many buildings or church have small part of azulejos cover them.

Almost azulejos represents geometric or abstract shapes
