This is one of the last pictures I shot with my Nikon D 5100, My tripod was hit by this waves and with my camera fall into the sea and broken. I am lucky my memory card is safe,so I still have this picture :)
The picture was taken from the viewing platform in park above the Dnipro River. In the foreground is the Podil district. This is the oldest part of Kiev. Here you can take an excursion on a pleasure boat.
Low late afternoon sunlight and the spray from the sea gave these sun beams on the path along the cliffs on the South coast of Mauritius.

The Arrábida Monastery was built in the 16th century and consists of the Old Monastery (located on the uppermost part of the hillside), the New Monastery (halfway down), the Garden and the Bom Jesus Shrine, set in the property’s 25 hectares. In addition, there are the adjacent but separate quarters of the Duke of Aveiro and the houses where the pilgrims stayed.
The Old Monastery, which stands at the highest point of the Arrábida hills, consists of four chapels, the series of shrines on the mystery of Christ’s Passion and some cells hewn out of the rocks.
The monastery was founded in 1542 by Friar Martinho de Santa Maria, a Castilian Franciscan who was granted the land by D. João de Lencastre (1501-1571), the first Duke of Aveiro.
The Memória Shrine already existed where the Old Monastery now stands. This was a destination of major pilgrimages and also where the first four Arrábida monks (Martinho de Santa Maria, Diogo de Lisboa, Francisco Pedraita and St. Peter of Alcántara) lived for two years in cells cut into the rocks.
