Photographer's Note
Săo Jorge Castle (Portuguese: Castelo de Săo Jorge) is a Moorish castle occupying a commanding hilltop overlooking the historic centre of the Portuguese city of Lisbon and Tagus River. The strongly fortified citadel dates from medieval period of Portuguese history, and is one of the main tourist sites of Lisbon.
The hill was first used by indigenous Celtic tribes, then by Phoenicians, Greeks, and Carthaginians as a defensible outpost that was later expropriated by Roman, Suebic, Visigothic, and Moorish peoples. During the 10th century, the fortifications were rebuilt by Muslim Berber forces, these included the walls or Cerca Moura ("Moorish Encirclement")

Hello Stephen,
There is quite a lot to like in this seemingly simple photo. The brightness of the flag, of course, but also the shadows on the wall, the diagonal line of the steps, the tree and its branches framing the upper part of the photo, the sharpness, colours. That's about it.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hi Stephen,
The flag is an eye catcher. The point of view is showing the details of the walls of the castle and of the flag. The light is enhancing the beauty of the colors. Have a nice day.

Hello Stephen
The red and green Portuguese flag contrasts well with the blue sky to give a superb warm cold colour contrast. Excellent sharpness & the fg tree at right anchors and frames the shot well. Tfs!

Hello Stephen,
Thats a quite a big flag, which you captured really well flying over the walls of the castle. I very much like the play of light and shadow on the wall as well as the textures of the stones themselves. Good composition and framing.

Hi Stephen
The combination of colours and light makes this image for me - the red flag against the dark blue sky, the light on the flag, the gritty walls and the tree branches. Indeed a standout shot that caught my. Well spotted and taken Congrats.
Best regards
