This shot was taken during my holidays in Azores Islands. Very beautiful place, it's all green it great landscapes. In this shot i use a 40D+Sigma 10-20 with hitech filters 0.6+0.3 both ND GRD hard edge.

Another photo taken at sunrise. This time you can see Desertas Islands. Desertas mean "deserted", no one lives there besides a few guards. It is an animal sanctuary.

Perched on a hilltop outside of Sintra, Portugal sits the Palacio da Pena. I chose to visit the Moorish castle on a hill opposite instead, where the views of the surroundings were just stunning. I hope you like it!

After walking a little bit into the levada, i found this place. There are a lot of rocks and trees in this location, but i choose this one because of the light.

I took this photo in Faro, Algarve, Portugal and was impressed with the way the paint used in this house mimicks so closely the intense colour of the sky. No polarizer or other filters were used.
