Two Trees, a photo from Setubal, South

Photographer's Note

Today a photo from Mother Nature. these two trees are placed inside the the green surrounding area of Sport Lisboa e Benfica training centre.
As I described before, this training centre is placed on Seixal's nearbies, having several facilities as football fields, gymnastic centre, sauna and others. This area is placed on the top of a hill with a magnificent view of Seixal Bay and Lisboa on background with Tagus River in between. It's a very pleasant and calm area, ideal to have the 'peace' before important competitions.

Hope you enjoy the photo!

While the 2 trees are interesting - i find that cross hatch pattern in the clouds to be fascinating! Nice shot -

Nice pictures of these two trees, but it is the sky I find the most interesting, with the clouds that make like a woven texture on the blue color.

All the best,

Emmanuel

Bonito detalhe do céu cheio de nuvens que mais parece ter sido visto através de uma rede. Muito boa composição obtida por meio de uma tomada de vista junto ao chão.

Olá Paulo!
Parabéns por mais esta foto. O céu com as suas nuvens esta magnífico .. parece quase uma malha geométrica :) em contraste com o verde "selvagem". Parabéns!

Arvores são um tema muito interessante Paulo, e aqui com essas cores e ceu texturizado ficou especial.
Saudações.

Olá Paulo,
Gosto da luz, das sombras e desse céu invulgar como fundo. Bem apanhado.

Olá Paulo,

I especially like the composition, with a great POV and a very 'classical' feeling.

The exposure is very good too, with natural colors, good sharpness and contrast, and a great looking sky.

Saludos,
Carlos

Hi Paulo
The composition is nice here. The sky is strange, like a wall paper, géometric.
Nice light.
Well done

Hi Paolo,

The objects look allright but the sky seems to me like it was made in photoshop. isn't it just a template: clouds?

cheers!
