(the Lower Town).«I know Carlos (Lisbon Weekly Photo) has already posted something from this place, but I couldn't resist, Carlos!
In fact, coincidentally, this is the piazza in front of the São Carlos Theatre , a truly beautiful square. The foreground light is a small fountain. The sphere is part of the Luzboa.
«I also couldn't resist taking or posting this one, the gracious front façade of the theatre, with the umbrellas of its resuarant in the foreground. This is its usual illumination, but as I'd never shot pics around here specifically at night before (compared to hundreds in daylight), I want to include it here.
«This pair is to the right of the point at which I took the São Carlos pics, in Rua Paiva da Andrade. The lit-up lemon-coloured walls , fire escape and beyond is another theatre (Sao Luiz?). And yet another café much loved by me before it.
I think I like the green zone best, because of what is in it.

Your pictures are fantastic. The façade of the Theatre is irresistable. I took a picture too but when I saw it at home decided to take better one. And how did you managed to get the square empty?
Vivam as fotos Luzboeticas!
Oops... just one more think. It's funny cause you mentioned Fernando Pessoa in your previous post and the plate under the first lamp on the left (1st pic) marks precisely the house where he was born.
Simple, my friend. It was 10.30 on monday night!! Quase ninguem.
I love the globe - it's magical!
What is that sphere? Is it part of the festival only or is it always there? What is it made of??? I want one! The stairs look wonderful at night, too, though I wouldn't want to have to go up or down them in the dark.
Tu réussis bien les photos de nuit. elles sont très nettes.
Je me demande si tu les fais avec un pied ?
Les deux que je trouve super / le cadrage et l'équilibre sont les deux extrèmes, au dessus et en dessous.
Plus lourdes d'un coté que de l'autre. Tu vois ce que je veux dire, je pense.
Et le doré est très doux.
Il doit faire bon, et tiède à Lisbonne à 10.30 PM !
once again great pictures for a tourist guide gives a warm invting feeling to go there
Hola Mile, fabulosas fotos nocturnas, perfectas de enfoque, la esfera es sorprendente.
Felicitaciones
Yep, that magic globe - I think they borrowed it from the old Brit TV series, "The Prisoner" (joking). No, it was only there for the festival, I think. I've never seen it before and if it stayed, maybe some admirer would steal it!
I don't think the public, or audiences can use those stairs. Must have been left on the building for 'aesthetics'after renovation. Very effective visually, though. I really like to play with cameratically (hmmm, new word!).
Cergie, à vrai dire, je ne sais point si j'ai bien compris. Quelles deux, en effet? Il a fait beau , pas du tout frais,mais pas si beau comme dans les septembres d'antan - ça veut dire, 2005, 2004, 2003, etc. Les temps sont a-Changin!
Marjan, you posted pictures taken so near mine in Chiado! You think really they would help lure the tourists?
Antonio, lo que mas me sorprendió, hablando del enfoque, fue que logré ciertas apesar de yo tener olvidado el tripé en mi casa! Graçias!
La photo avec le globe terrestre, et aussi des deux qui sont pareilles, celle qui est au dessous: elle est plus douce.
Donc la photo tout en haut et celle tout en bas de ton message.
Great shots and I especially love that glowing globe! Wow!
