The beach at Estoril, near Lisbon, captured from the pier as the Atlantic surf rolled in. I used a polariser to bring out the clouds and reduce reflections and adjusted contrast and clarity in Lightroom. Thanks for looking.

On a recent visit to Cap Espichel, Portugal, I was mulling over different means of capturing the famous lighthouse. One idea was to return after sunset and undertake some long exposures, capturing the motion blur of the foreground grasses blowing in the breeze. This is one of my best efforts, after some minor adjustments for contrast and clarity. Thanks for viewing.

A 137 second exposure of the River Tagus and Ponte 25 de Abril suspension bridge captured from southern Lisbon at sunset. Not a great deal of processing involved, just corrections for noise and contrast in the sky using Lightroom. Thanks for stopping by.

Some powerful surf crashes over a small sea wall at the Portuguese resort of Estoril. I spent about 45 minutes photographing the waves (from a safe distance), and this was one of the better efforts.
