I’m right in the middle of my Madeira posts, and I didn’t want to abandon the tales of my trip for look up, look down. Fortunately, I did manage to take some photos looking both up and down in Madeira, so I can take part in the challenge and still continue telling you about my holiday.
The first photo was taken from Eira do Serrado, a viewing point just beside our hotel. The town/village thing you can see surrounded by all the mountains is Curral Das Freiras, Valley of the Nuns.
My second photo shows some of the fabulous flora that is abundant on the island. It was taken in the tropical garden in Monte… I just love the way the red looks against the blue of the sky!
And finally another photo of the chilli stand that I posted some pictures of yesterday. This shot was taken from the lower level of the market, looking up at the stand.
Have a photo that would be perfect for the theme Look Up, Look Down? Check out Travel With Intent’s blog post to join in and see all the other entries!

Such beautiful photos! Thanks for sharing your great adventure with us!
Thank you. I’m glad you like them 🙂
These are great. I love the view down to the valley – pretty awesome. 🙂
Absolutely beautiful 🙂 “Valley of the Nuns” sounds kind of intriguing.
The explanation is pretty boring, sadly. Those lands used to belong to a convent…
Haha well I suppose that’s the most logical explanation! But still… it seems kind of eerie at the least.
That first shot is simply stunning! I have never been, but I can see I’ll have to go now… Thank you so much for sharing these images in the challenge. Debbie
You should definitely go! The whole place is beautiful.
Ooooh, nice up and down shots. In the first one, on the preview I thought it was smoke and I was worried at first!
Haha, maybe I should have mentioned that we were so high the clods were below us 😛
Gorgeous photos!
Thanks 🙂
Your pictures are fantastic! I got a new camera for Christmas so I am looking forward to taking some cool pictures myself!
Thank you! My camera isn’t that great but it’s almost impossible to take a bad photo of Madeira!
