Photographer's Note
Traditional 'ria de Aveiro' boats. These boats, called 'moliceiros' were used to pick up weeds (in portuguese, moli蔞) from the ria of Aveiro (the city of Aveiro is also called the portuguese Venice, due to its several water channels).
They are vividly painted and often present humorous and satirical images. In one of these boats we can read a sentence that translated is something like... 'I love these creatures'
If anyone wants to write a more suitable translation of that portuguese sentence, be my guest :)

I'm not quite sure what it is but there is something that drags my attention in this photo! The colors perhaps? Well done anyhow!

Ola David
Even though there is not much natural light, the close up of these nice details is good to see the artwork
Have a nice day JY
