Apesar de se tratar de apenas um registro despretensioso, sem qualquer apelo técnico, cuidando-se de um Postal, como sempre referido por uma amiga minha, achei interessante publicar esta fotografia no Blog para que mais pessoas possam admirar a belíssima Torres-RS, cidade praiana do Sul bastante visitada por turistas de todos os pontos do Brasil e, em especial, pelos "manos" argentinos e uruguaios. A cidade oferece inúmeros atrativos naturais, além das maravilhosas praias, como a da Guarita, localizada entre bonitas rochas. No início do outono, normalmente recebe milhares de pessoas para o festival anual de balonismo, grande atrativo para os fotógrafos de esportes. Enfim, Torres é Bela e agradável.
