Welcome to my blog ⛵️
My name is Cláudia and I am passionate about photography. I am lucky that Portugal is my home.
I live in a city that gives its name to my country, Porto.
One of my passions is capturing moments with my camera. I have training in the same area and my day to day life is doing clicks around the city.
Today I will share with you the beauty of Foz do Douro as well as my personal experience with landscapes.
Come with me on this trip, I hope you like it.
My first capture was really challenging, the camera in question is the (NikonD5600 with 50/140 mm lens). as in addition to being located in an inlet of the sea, preventing waves from causing accidents, it also allows good circulation between river and sea.
Its red dome and 12 meters make it an imposing building built in the 19th century.
In addition to its function as a navigability guide, it is also elegant in contrast to the stunning coastal landscape, popular with those watching the sunset, thus attracting many photographers like me on sunny days.
In the image captured by my camera it is still possible to see many people enjoying the sunset
As the sun sets, it is possible to see artisanal fishermen with their respective fishing rods heading towards the breakwater.
At the very bottom you can still see a small boat leaving the river towards the sea, the landscape is undoubtedly stunning.
It makes you want to stay there drinking a juice and see this true dream of nature.
In Portugal this year is a little atypical as in other years it has rained and been cold, however these days have been quite hot and we have also seen temperatures around 25 degrees and no rain.
And today my day was no different, you don't know how much it is, well you know how to leave work and enjoy this clean and beautiful climate
The sky is an ever-changing spectacle, the sky takes on shades of pink and gold reflected in the few waves that collide with the breakwater.
This is the place where the man-made breakwater joins the immensity of the Onceano becoming immersed in the landscape.
Fishermen cast their rods in hopes of bringing home some fish. and where other people gather to enjoy and take refuge in the serenity of the place.
The plane leaves trails of pink and the seagulls like dots in the sky transmit calm and harmony throughout the place.
The arm of the sea, always highlighted by the small waves of the sea, finally begins to wake up and flash intermittently with its green and red lights signaling the beginning of the night.
In the background, fishermen with their fishing rods in a small boat under the sea create a clean and relaxing environment.
Well, this is my first post in the Hive community, I hope you like it, I'll wait for you in the next post.
Thank you very much for reading.
See you soon 😀
(I also want to thank the Portuguese Telegram community for helping me write the first post.)
