Strong central support for a Portuguese fishing port, with the supporting pier of a concrete road bridge appearing - at first glance - to be supporting the colourful waterfront of Peniche, in the Leiria District of central Portugal, complete with bars, restaurants, shops and apartment blocks. Below the bridge roadway, the pier divides a shimmering reflection of the sunny summer scene.


Peniche, Leiria District, Portugal: at a quick glance, this modern concrete road bridge appears to be supporting the colourful commercial waterfront of this major fishing port on the Atlantic coast of central Portugal. On a sunny June morning, the colourful parade dotted with bars, restaurants, shops, office buildings and apartments is reflected below the bridge carriageway in the shimmering surface of the town’s busy harbour.
