Swirly Hues - Port

Swirlydoos Kit Club has kicked off a new monthly contest known as Swirly Hues.  We are given a sketch and a color scheme and you let your imagination take over from there.

I was recently looking at some of Ncyankee's layouts of Portugal.  This made me pull out my own Portugal Album and immediately decided it needs to be redone - or at least some of my favorite photos deserved a little better presentation than I originally gave them. 

The first is my Swirly Hues entry.  This is a picture of me taken on a Cruise of the River Duoro in Oporto with a glass of Port in hand (a requirement for sure LOL).  Most of the time I spent in Portugal it was sunny and gorgeous the exception being this day - but it was still a highlight of the trip.

The second are evening shots in Evora.  We stayed outside the walled city but took a walk into its center for an evening, a wonderful experience and in case you are wondering there was more Port involved.
