The Caretos of Lazarim are a very special carnival tradition in northern Portugal, specifically in the village of Lazarim, near Lamego.
The Caretos are male characters who wear hand-carved wooden masks, while the Senhorinhas are female characters. These masks are devoid of color to honor the art of those who carved them.
During the Lazarim Carnival, which lasts four days, the Caretos and Senhorinhas go out on the street, mingling with the crowd. The party includes an ethnographic parade, a mask contest, and the reading of the “will of the donkey”, a biting criticism made by the comadres (single girls) to the boys of the village.
- Рейтинг фотографов по странам и городам строится на основе 3-х лучших фотографий автора и их относительной позиции в каждой отдельной номинации. Рейтинг в номинации "Мобильная фотография" учитывается в меньшей степени для формирования рейтинга. В списке по странам и городам показывается одна фотография автора с лучшим рейтингом.
- В списке опубликованы только работы которые прошли 2-й этап голосования.
- The rating of photographers by countries and cities is based on the three best photos of the author and their relative position in each separate nomination. Rating in the nomination "Mobile Photography" is taken into account to a lesser extent for rating formation. The list by country and city shows one photo of the author with the best rating.
- Only those photos have been published in the list that passed the second stage of voting.
