Late last month Paulo Camacho's Funchal Daily Photo celebrated its eleventh anniversary. The city of Funchal, is the capital of Madeira Island, known as the "Pearl of the Atlantic". Madeira is a Portuguese island, off the coast of Morocco. It is backed by hills, and known for its harbor, gardens and Madeira wine cellars. The centuries-old Funchal Cathedral, which mixes Gothic and Romanesque styles, is notable for its carved wooden ceiling. Fronting the harbor is the São Tiago Fortress, built in the 1600s. It now houses the Contemporary Art Museum, with a large collection of Portuguese works.
