A sublime sunrise I registered on the margins of Alcabrichel river. The duality between the shadow and light extol this valley.

After the sun passing the horizon, this magnificent pastel tones gain life.

If a scenery like this seems perfect to us it’s because there is a perfection standard for the majority of humans. If this standard is a collective memory, perhaps its existence is true on the deeps of our subconscious.
Se um cenário destes nos parece perfeito é porque existe um padrão de perfeição para a maioria dos humanos. Se esse padrão é uma memória coletiva, talvez a sua existência seja verídica nas profundezas do subconsciente.
Here the representation of the four elements: Earth, Water, Air and Fire. Fire being a distant element, yet well present on life’s evolution that the Sun has made possible.
Eis a representação dos quatro elementos Terra, Água, Ar e Fogo. Sendo o fogo um elemento longínquo mas ainda assim bem presente na evolução da vida que o Sol proporcionou.
The understanding of reality turns easier when we can freeze the timeline. Photography is the perfect time machine to immortalize moments. Then you can observe details that escape our eyes, either because they pass too fast or because we are too busy to focus on them.
Those water drops at sunset will be forever in suspension against gravity in this picture. This is the power of capturing light during a very short period of time.
A compreensão da realidade é muito mais fácil quando conseguimos parar a linha temporal. A fotografia é a máquina do tempo perfeita para imortalizar momentos. Então, conseguimos observar detalhes que nos escaparam ao olhar, quer porque passaram demasiado rápido, quer estivéssemos muito ocupados para nos focarmos neles. Aquelas gotas de água ao pôr-do-sol serão mantidas para sempre em suspensão contra a gravidade nesta imagem. Eis o poder de registar luz num curtíssimo período de tempo.

Talvez a contradição dos tons quentes num céu que habitualmente é azul nos faça gostar tanto das tonalidades ao final do dia.
Maybe the contradiction of the warm tones in a usually blue sky makes us adore the evening shades.
O equilíbrio da paleta de cores da natureza inspira-me e faz-me procurar estas novas paisagens no mesmo local.
The balance of the nature’s colour palette inspires me and makes me search for these new landscapes in the same places.
Capturing a partial solar eclipse in Portugal, in a cloudy day, is a strike of luck. However, I had the feeling that I needed to go somewhere and try photographing it. Most of the times, photography is about subconscious messages and intuition. Thus, I went to Santa Rita Beach and I had the biggest surprise of the year. There it was – the incomplete sun lurking.
My amazement grew more when I realized that even the eclipse was aligned with the walkway. There’s a mathematical coincidence that I could hardly imagine to be possible. It was a true blessing having the opportunity to enjoy that moment and capturing it.
Registar um eclipse parcial do sol em Portugal, num dia nublado, é um golpe de sorte. Contudo, tive o pressentimento que tinha de ir algures e tentar fotografá-lo. Na maioria das vezes fotografar baseia-se em interpretar mensagens do subconsciente e a intuição. Assim, fui à Praia de Santa Rita e tive a maior surpresa do ano. Ali estava ele – o sol incompleto a espreitar.
O meu espanto elevou-se quando me apercebi que o próprio eclipse estava alinhado com o passadiço. Há uma coincidência matemática que dificilmente poderia imaginar ser possível. É uma verdadeira gratidão ter a oportunidade de aproveitar o momento e registá-lo.
O Ilhéu de Porto Novo separa as praias de Santa Rita e Porto Novo. Outrora o mar e o rio juntavam-se neste local transformando este pedaço de falésia numa pequena ilha. Atualmente, durante o inverno, o rio tenta reclamar o seu lugar nativo, chegando mesmo a inundar os campos e tornar a estrada intransitável.
Porto Novo islet separates Santa Rita and Porto Novo beaches. Once, the sea and the river joined together here turning this piece of cliff into a little Island. Nowadays, during the winter the river tries to claim its native place, even flooding the fields and blocking the road to transit.
A starry moonlight night at Maceira, where we can only listen to the noises of the night birds and the wind gently passing through the trees. Fireflies join you on this quiet stroll.
Uma noite de luar e estrelas na Maceira, onde apenas se ouve as aves noturnas e a suave brisa a passar nas árvores. Os pirilampos juntam-se a nós neste passeio tranquilo.
After a warm sunny day, I couldn’t resist to register this sunset at Praia Azul. The clouds were reflecting the soft pastel colours of the sunset, which gave an interesting hue to the photographs. A long exposure turned the sea into silk covering the rocks.
Depois de um quente dia de sol, não resisti em registar este pôr-do-sol na Praia Azul. As nuvens refletiam as cores suaves do pôr-do-sol, dando uma tonalidade interessante às fotografias. A longa exposição transformou o mar em seda que cobre as rochas.
O passadiço leva-nos até um pôr-do-sol de tons quentes, num passeio pela Praia de Santa Rita. Um veleiro navega pelo mar ao sabor da ondulação e da brisa.
The walkway takes us to a sunset of warm tones, in a stroll along Santa Rita beach. A sailboat sails by the sea to the waves and the breeze.
