Hi Goncalo,

The gate is sending my eyes toward the horizon which is giving depth to the composition. The point of view is showing the details and colors of the gate. Using a tobacco gradual filter has a special effect on the colors of the sky. Have a nice day.

gonçalo

uma foto muito bonita, com elementos simples. gosto dos tons dourados e do minimalismo do conjunto, a lateral do edifício nos remete para à esquerda, para a paisagem do rio e sua longa ponte.lindo trabalho.
por aqui ainda faz frio, mas não tanto quanto há alguns dias. no sul temperaturas negativas todos os dias..

abraços

josepmarin (55051) 2012-05-02 1:18

Olá, amigo Gonçalo,
he estado mirando en tu galería, buscando alguna foto que todavía no he valorado, y he encontrado esta maravilla.
Es una imagen captada con mucha sensibilidad, con una atmósfera casi mística, en la que has jugado hábilmente con la elegante perspectiva de esta plataforma en el Parque das Nações, y el espectacular efecto del sol y el filtro tabaco sobre las nubes, en un cielo muy dramático.
La imagen es muy nítida y profunda, y nos permite observar al fondo el impresionante Puente Vasco da Gama.
Una bella composición.
Um abraço,
Josep
