Madeira 2024 #10 | On film: The house on the big hill
The view of this house, high up on the big hill, when we were driving down the serpentines to Porto Moniz, had caught my attention immediately. The comment ‘Ah, there was a car park!’ escaped my moutt but by then we had already driven past that spot and lost the chance to stop and take photos.
As you see it wasn't the last chance. After a trip into the laurel forest (aka fairy forest), we drove down the same serpentines. I was ready to stop. And to take a photo, finally.
Well, unfortunately that turned out to be a little more difficult than expected. The veil of mist made it difficult for me to photograph the house. Again and again, the mist pushed itself into the front and cloaked the house.
I waited and waited. Waiting for the right moment. I don't know if the three moments I brought us are the right ones. For sure, they are not wrong.
