Very nice images Paolo, ik like them all; BW is better than with colour.
Like the first one wit long shutterspeed.

As you know i was there one year ago;
I remember swimming in lagua do Fogo... certainly a very nice place to be...
And i always like the idea that you are so remote from the mainland wherever you look- only sea.

+1 Yes, masterful images. I especially like the last, but all are magnificent.

Thanks Pieter. Sadly, it is not allowed to swim on the Fogo anymore. The increasing number of tourists and swimmers (with the sun lotions) was polluting the water... this ina beach that was voted as the "best wild beach in Portugal"...

I was fortunate to go there before and during sunrise, thus having the place to myself:)

Nice work, Paulo. They have a strong crepuscular feel.

Beautiful rich tonalities. These would all make great prints.

My prefered is the 3rd, because of the really heavy atmosphere it delivers.

Have a Nice Day.

Everyone is superb.
To me, #4 is a little bit more.
