Portugal

Aug 9, 1993

This was taken along the Portugal and Spanish border somewhere in the mountains. We stayed in a beautiful Pousada. From what little I understand some of the Pousadas were originally private estates and then taken over by the government, possibly under Communist influences, and turned into public hotels. Anyways I love this photo of the lone guy with a video camera (pre-digital) peering out along the border of two countries that are so similar yet profoundly different.
