Title: In the dunes
Post by: Paulo Bizarro on December 15, 2014, 03:31:14 am: Good morning,

These were taken in SW Portugal coast (again...). I was there over a long weekend recently, the weather was really cold and crisp. Sunset now is around 5.30 pm, which is good, at least I can get dinner at normal times:)

I also took many shots of the cliffs and sea, but these are from the surrounding dunes, for a change.

Regards.

Regards, Sander

Like the 3rd very much.

But it is more magenta overall, mineralization of the sand doesn't fully explain that cast, compare the sky of the 2nd and the 3rd.

Very easy to fix ;)

Have a Nice Day.
