The Offshore Windfarm off the Aberdeen coastline under a brooding sky.
Moments later, heavens opened which resulted in a soaking before I reached the car.
Well known for its clean water and vast expanse of sand, Adraga Beach (“Praia da Adraga”) is one of the most beautiful beaches in the Lisbon area. It is located near the village of Almoçageme, about 30 kms from Lisbon and 14km from Sintra.
It is a fairly wild spot being located just a few kilometres north of Cabo da Roca, the westernmost point on mainland Europe. Formations of jagged rocks brood just offshore and the beach itself is home to some caves and tunnels resulting from erosion and the sea action.
This shot was taken at sunset, late last summer.

A quite spectacular late afternoon view over the polder area facing Vlaardingen and Maassluis.
On the horizon - at approximately 10 km - you can see wind turbines and giant offshore platforms bordering the Nieuwe Waterweg ("New Waterway"). This 20.5 km long shipping canal opened in 1872, and is still a main artery of the Port of Rotterdam.
I did quite some sliding on this one, and vividly remember the afterimages caused by trying to capture the right moment without the right eye protection 8-)
Happy Sliders Sunday!
