Setubal, Portugal - Shots at night

Antonio Correia

It was rather late when I took my mother home and noticed the moon was full and the sky was clear.
I drove to the Fortress of S. Filipe and shot some pictures.
The result is not the best. I have to be there earlier, 1 or 2 hours. :huh
The picture was photoshoped from a raw file as usual.:thumb

It's a gorgeous view! I think you are right about the time. It would be beautiful at dusk.

Thank you Ric.
I just came from the location and I'll post others really fresh in a couple of hours.
I'm going to dine now.

I'll be very interested in seeing the results of your re-shoot. I think this is a splendid image. The only improvement I think getting there earlier will provide is maybe the moon being lower in the sky. I really like the deep and dark blues in the sky, makes a nice backdrop for the lights of the city.
