O pôr do sol ideal não é aquele que se vê e se ambiciona lá ter estado, mas sim aquele a que assistimos e guardamos nas nossas memórias. Até pode não ter sido o mais intenso, mas é ideal porque faz parte das nossas vivências.
Praia de Porto Novo, Torres Vedras, Portugal
Local da minha infância, ao qual retorno muitas vezes e fotografo. São momentos de grande tranquilidade na maré baixa que registo nestas imagens, revelando uma paisagem serena.
Bem cedo, ao nascer do sol, depois de uma noite gélida, podemos apreciar a geada que cristaliza nas plantas. Neste dia, a Maceira acordou novamente de branco, permanecendo com temperaturas abaixo de zero graus até que o sol aqueça e derreta todos os cristais.

One afternoon earlier in the spring I noticed this striking Sun pillar on the western horizon. It was visible for more than 30 minutes. After the Sun had set it turned red and pink (lower right photo). If ice crystals are stacked horizontally in cirrus clouds and tipped in the direction of the viewer, then the Sun’s waning light is reflected in the form of a column or spike. Note also the extended sundogs on either side of the pillar, approximately 22 degrees from it and the position of the Sun. Photo taken on April 16, 2018.

A brisa do mar vem com o seu aroma característico que nos faz lembrar os dias na praia e os fantásticos pores-do-sol.
On a cold shadowy afternoon, I decided to go to Porto Novo beach and I was surprised by the faint yellow shines reflecting on the foam, making this unusual scenery.
Numa tarde fria e pouco luminosa, decidi passar pela Praia de Porto Novo e fui surpreendido por ténues brilhos amarelos que se refletiam na espuma das ondas, dando origem a este invulgar cenário.
Global Warming brings us more and more the inconveniences of the frequent atypical storms for this region and time of the year. This was a record of the track left by the Felix storm at Santa Rita beach, where fortunately it didn’t cause any damage. In the middle of gale and rain a moment of peace happened. Besides the adverse conditions the persistence paid up, rewarded by some sun beams.
O aquecimento global traz-nos, cada vez mais, as inconveniências das frequentes tempestades atípicas para a época e região. Este foi um registo do rasto deixado pela tempestade Félix na Praia de Santa Rita, onde felizmente não causou danos. No meio de um vendaval e chuva surge um momento de paz.
Apesar das condições adversas valeu a persistência, recompensada por uns raios de sol.
Moments like these turn a common landscape into a masterpiece. Those are rare and fleeting, but when these amazing conditions meet it is a great pleasure to be able to enjoy them and to photograph.
São momentos como este que tornam uma paisagem habitual numa obra de arte. São raros e fugazes, mas, quando estas impressionantes condições se reúnem é um grande prazer poder apreciá-las e registá-las.
