• Sunset Sailing From Albufeira Harbour

    The sunset catamaran departs from Marina of Albufeira, from where it sails along the golden coast of the Algarve, close enough to enjoy the natural beauty of the rock formations and cliffs. During three hours aboard the comfortable catamaran, you’ll have the chance to relax and to enjoy the beautiful sunset of the Algarve surrounded by unique landscapes.

    You'll have the chance to see the famous Benagil cave and take some pictures from the catamaran because boats are forbidden to disembark in the cave.

  • Dubai Hot Air Balloon At Sunrise

    The tour guide was picking us up at 5:00 am to drive us to the middle of the desert, without mention that we were still on jet lag and we barely slept that night.

    We arrived in the desert and it was still dark, the balloon was getting ready, but not only ours, but there were also like seven more balloons. The whole idea was to watch the sunrise while we were already in the air to experience the spectacular view of the vast Arabian Desert, honestly, this was a brand new experience as you see the sun slowly rising from the horizon gently illuminating the landscape

  • Children Playing On Jumeirah Beach At Sunset

    After a long day in a desert safari in Dubai, I decided to visit the Jumeirah Beach to watch the sunset and to take some photos of the famous Burj Al Arab hotel. To start, the beach was packed, and it was very difficult to find a parking spot, so after driving around several minutes, I finally found an available parking space and just in time for the sunset I walked to the beach.

    The sun was decending quickly, and when it was almost set in the horizon, the whole scene turned into those red-orange tones. I didn't expect such spectacle.

  • Turimetta Beach At Sunrise

    After a full day recovering from jet lag, I decided to visit one of the most photographed beaches near Sydney. Of course it is famous because of the beautiful sunrises and the mossy rocks which makes it a spectacular seascape.

    I woke up very early in the morning and I was a little concern about driving on the left side of the road for first time, so finally I arrived to the beach where there was already there around twenty photographers. Yeap, for a moment I thought I would be alone in that remote place, but I was so wrong. It was really challenging to frame the landscape and keep them out of the scene, but at the end I came back home with some amazing pictures.

  • Enjoying The Beautiful Melbourne Beach Sunrise

    Without question, Florida have the most beautiful sunrises I've ever seen. No matter what time of the year I always capture colorful sunrises. Many people wake up early in the morning to watch the sunrise in the beach.

  • Pena Palace At Sunset

    The Pena Castle stands on the top of a hill in the Sintra Mountains, near Lisbon.

    I took this photo from the Castle of the Moors which is the best place to enjoy the amazing views. Later we decided to visit the Pena Castle and the gardens, of course there is a lots of walking and climbing involved and I was already exhausted to be honest, but this was my second time in Sintra so I wanted to take more pictures.

    Back in the hotel I felt terrible, I caught a cold that kept me in bed for the next two days. I guess I wasn't prepared for the cold weather plus the strenuous climbing.

  • Bahia Honda Beach At Sunset

    The old-railroad to Key West turned this remote island of Bahia Honda Key into a tropical destination where the visitors can enjoy the beautiful beaches, magnificent sunsets and excellent snorkeling.

    I've been in this State Park several times chasing the perfect sunset. The last time I was there I found a good spot in the other side of the island and when I was ready to take the photos it had started to rain so I had to pack my equipment and get sheltered under the old bridge.

    Half hour later the rain stopped but the sun had already gone down. On my way to the parking area I noticed the bright light in the horizon so I decided to give a last shot in the beach. It was pretty dark indeed, but this camera does a good job in low light conditions.

  • Fisher Island Aerial View At Sunrise

    Fisher Island is one of the artificial islands in Miami Beach which is located in South Pointe across the Miami port, this island had the highest per capita income of any place in the United States, no wonder only celebrities and millionaires can afford to live there. The island is only accessible by boat, ferry or helicopter of course.

    I wanted to test my new DJI Inspire1 Pro quadcopter and South Pointe was the first place came to my mind to flight this machine.

  • Sunset In Bahia Honda Key

    The Bahia Honda state park is a nice place near the Key West in Florida where many people visit to enjoy the beaches or just to walk around the park.

    I've been there several times but never before sunset which is magic hour for any photographer. Even though the sunset that day wasn't the best one, the light was perfect to capture a truly memorable image.

  • Twister Cloud At Sunset In Clearwater Beach

    I was staying in a hotel right on the beach, so very late in the afternoon I walked to the shore to chase the sunset and as usual nature surprised me with these saturated red clouds shaped like a twister. To be honest, I didn't notice the moon was part of my composition until I got home and reviewed the photos.

  • Pyramid Shaped Sunset In The Caribbean

    The cruise ship departed Falmouth late in the afternoon. I went to the back of the ship looking a good spot to capture the sunset, of course a lot of people were already there waiting for that moment as well. I noticed the sun drawing interesting shapes of light and shadows in the horizon, these shapes in the sky didn't last long and they were changing quickly.

  • Racing The Sun On Clearwater Bay

    I went to a high bridge overlooking the Clearwater Bay to get some photos of the sunset. The sun was just in the horizon when I noticed these three jet-skis at high speed heading towards the bridge I was, leaving long water trails behind. No doubt they were racing against each other.

    A lot of people gather in these beaches in the afternoon to watch the sunset. I was staying in a hotel right on the beach so when the sunset time was close I simply grabbed my camera to walk in the beach looking for the perfect spot to photograph the sun.

    Sometimes finding the perfect spot to capture the sunset is the easiest part, but if you're patient enough shortly after the sun disappears below the horizon you can witness the most amazing events in the sky. I was about to return to the cabin when the clouds turned so red like they were on fire. Without thinking twice, I grabbed my camera and took some interesting shots.

  • Sunrise At Dania Beach Pier

    I've always been a little lazy to get up early in the morning to photograph the sunrise. Last Sunday without any clock alarm I woke up at 5:00 AM, I grabbed my camera and I went to the pier in Dania Beach here in Florida. Some fishermen were already casting out fishing nets at sunrise, of course I thought about getting some photos of them in action but my camera wasn't ready for fast shooting.

    I had a hard time changing my camera settings in the darkness, but after a few minutes the sun light gradually increased and I managed to capture the amazing colors of this sunrise.

  • Dark Sunset On The Beach

    I decided to spend the Labor Day weekend in a beach hotel in Naples, Florida. To be honest I was thinking more about enjoying the hotel stay than taking photos. It was raining in the afternoons so without regrets I stayed in bed (very comfortable by the way).

    The last night at hotel, one hour before sunset, even though it was extremely overcast I noticed a clear horizon, so I went running to the beach to capture this spectacular moment.

  • Distorted Sun In The Horizon

    When the sun is low above the horizon, the layers of different temperature and pressure in the atmosphere creates a distorted image of the sun and the sky turns into a breathtaking palette of colors. I used a super-telephoto lens to get closer to the horizon.
