Parque das Nações, a photo from Lisboa, South

Photographer's Note

Parque das Nações is the newest district in Lisbon, having emerged from an urban renewal programme leading to the World Exhibition of Lisbon 1998, also known as Expo'98. The area suffered massive changes giving Parque das Nações a futuristic look. A long lasting legacy of the same, the area has become another commercial and higher end residential area for the city. Central to this is the Gare do Oriente (Orient Station), one of the main transportation hubs of Lisbon for trains, buses, taxis, and the metro. Its glass and steel columns are inspired by Gothic Architecture, lending the whole structure a visual fascination (especially in sunlight or when illuminated at night). It was designed by the architect Santiago Calatrava from Valencia, Spain. Across the street, through Vasco da Gama Mall, is Parque das Nações (Park of the Nations), site of the 1998 World Expo.

Ciao Daniel

Another superbly judged vertical cut. THe perspective is eye-catching and well-composed. I like the bluish tones and the interesting textures made by the boardwalk.

Have a great day, thanks for sharing

Ciao Daniel
il taglio verticale da slancio all'architettura ed al suo riflesso, mi piace la composizione con la fila di bandire a destra, bilancia tutta l'immagine.
Saluti
Carlo

Hi Daniel - There are two aspects to this shot which appeal to me; the first is the composition with strong repeating vertical lines. The second is the subtle colour and detail in the sky. Wonderfully captured. Warm regards Rosemary

Hello Daniel.
The boardwalk and the magnificent pond are the proud our view that rise buildings in the background, beautiful reflections in the water, the masts of the flags and the beautiful sky, are a nice bonus to the composition.
Superb range of colors.
Good brightness and sharpness.
Well done.
Have a nice weekend.
Best wishes.
Luis.
