Rugged, a photo from Algarve, South

Photographer's Note

There are not many coastlines in Europe that look so beautiful and destructive at the same time. The ever changing panorama when walking or driving alongside the Algarve coast is breathtaking any time and will be slightly different whenever you visit.

Lovely shades of blue in this image. The detail and textures of the rocks in the forground are excellent. All in all a very pleasing composition.

Hi Axel,
Fantastic photo of that fantastic coastline! I really like the POV and the yellow colours of the rocks. I've changed some things in your photo, I hope you don't mind.
Best wishes,
Marton

Hi Axel,
The shot has potential and is executed well. No doubt a different compositio but a unique POV.

Nice picture with nice intense colors. The composition is good. May be a little grainy. Try with NeatImage to eliminate the noise on the shot. Personally it don't boder me but here on TE you usually get comments about how "horizontal is the horizon"... and you have a little "effect" that makes it not very horizontal. It is my advice to you ;)

Hallo Axel
I agree with your note, but not for the whole Algarve; I prefer the western half of the coastline.
This colours seem too light yellow; usually these rocks are more dark yellow or orange/brown. Well, it depends on the time of the day and weather.
