Palafitic pier of Carrasqueira...
We arrived there after lunch... first, there was no water and we have felt a little disappointed. After a few hours, the tide came in, and we decided to stay, to photograph the sunset... We have waited patiently while the sun was going down and a freezing wind was increasing and testing our perseverance, but things were still looking rather promising... then, a thick line of clouds began to form near to the horizon line... and the sun has quietly and quickly disappeared behind it. No flaming skies, no magic light... Lesson to learn: ambition doesn't always pay off :)))
I apologize for this long series, but, nevertheless all the mishaps, we still did a lot of shooting.
By "we" I mean a group of about twenty clicking maniacs.
