Photographer's Note
Cabo da Roca (Cape Roca) is a cape that forms the westernmost point of mainland Europe (and of mainland Portugal). It is located in Lisbon district, 40 kilometres west of Lisbon and 18 kilometres west of Sintra in the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park. Its coordinates, 38°47′N, 9°30′W, are inscribed on a stone plaque on the monument at the site. The cliff rises out of the Atlantic Ocean to approximately 140 metres above sea level. The lighthouse along with a tourist shop sit on top of the cliff.

Hello Armando,
this is a stunning picture: incredible definition (d300!) good composition and interesting subject. Beautiful details.
Pity the jet contrails, but nowadays this is inevitable, it seems. :-(
What made me look several times at it, is aswell, that it looks quite postprocessed...as if it would be an HDR. Did you use any filters? The sky is quite particular...
Obrigado, René

Olá Armando,
Embora a foto esteja um pouco saturada demais para o meu gosto pessoal, acho que está uma composição lindissima.
