A few things you should know:

- I do not submit a lot, or very often. I prefer quality to quantity.
- If you comment on any of my works, I shall do the same for you.
- Do feel free to watch me, I shall again do the same.
- Constructive criticism is always welcome, I am always looking to improve.
- I do not use photoshop or any other photo editing software to edit my photos, and do not rate people who do so. The art of photography is taking the picture, not making it perfect afterwards.
- I authorize the clubs below to submit my work to their galleries.

Thank you.

Nuno

Having people calling you "Doctor", even if you're a nobody, and then not calling anyone else "Mr.", or "Sir", or anything like that, whatever they might do

Not being a racist, unless they're gypsys

Driving like a maniac, and having no-one care about it

Criticising the government, but never officially complain

Cleaning the wax out of your ears using the car's key, or pen's cap

Baptizing your children, and having them going to catholic teaching, without you ever going to mass

Ladies' night every Thursday

Decoring the living room's furniture with wedding gifts

Travelling anywhere in the world, and always find another Portuguese guy at some restaurant

Going to the beach, and taking chicken and rice

Keeping those old undies to polish the car with

Every year having students complaining about the fees

Nobody knowing anything about our country apart from Brasilians and Spanish, and those only mock it

Being the last in all lists and indicators, but still being the most relaxed in Europe

Always having cheap seafood, cigarettes, and alcohol

Having a visitor and showing the whole place

Flashing the car's lights to warn the other drivers the police's ahead

Having the rest of the World thinking Portugal is part of Spain

Spend the whole Sunday walking around at a mall

Killing the language, writing like "dix"

Having gone to a fortune teller

Not walking. Driving everywhere, no matter what

Hearing Brasilians telling jokes about us, but only telling jokes about ourselves

Having your mom or grandma still wearing black because of someone who died ages ago

Going to Fátima with your family at least once a year

Living with your parents until you're 30

Light up a cigarette anytime, anywhere, not giving a damn about others

Having a moustache, and being short (women too)

Always drive on the left lane, on the highway

Having 3 cell phones

Swearing you're not going to buy Spanish olive oil, even if most of the one for sale is

Recording the soap opera

Going to watch football, buying the cheapest ticket, and trying to sneak to a more expensive seat

Spending a fortune with your cell phones, but then complaining about the dentist's price

Always going to the Algarve in August

How i just love my country...

Also, if you want to see all that proven to you, go to [link] .. it literally means "Portugal at its best", and it's got loads of ridiculous pictures taken in Portugal.. it's in Portuguese, but there's a bar under each picture that you can scroll to access pictures..
