In addition to its ornithological significance and importance as their winter sanctuary, the Ria Formosa provides shelter and feeding grounds for several aquatic and migratory species, as well as being a region of great botanical interest, including areas of sclerophyllous scrubland, salt marsh and dune vegetation, which must be preserved.

excellent photo, Luis, I like a lot the clear colours and how you have composed the photo, it creates a very nice feeling of wide open space, even with the contruction looking a little like a cage. the strong line of the bridge is a great way to lead the eye into the photo, excellent work!

with best regards,
Kristine

Perspectiva e cores muito bonitas. Só é pena ter a linha de água ligeiramente inclinada para a esquerda. É muito pouco mas nota-se.

I like the way you have framed the image with the use of the strucure in the foreground. The sunset colours are very appealing making the sky a very attractive background. Well done
Kath
