The seascape on top was taken Praia da Ursa in Portugal. It’s a hiking adventure to reach this little-frequented beach, but the effort is rewarded by superb scenery that is dominated by huge rock formations at the beach. The photo on the bottom was a long exposure at sunrise on Praia do Camilo, Lagos, also in Portugal. There are a number of small coves and little beaches which can be accessed if you’re prepared to climb, or to swim, or to boat around. Both places offer good snorkelling opportunities, fascinating rock formations, and sea grottos.

Water & Land

Dark Moods

Most times, water on the rocks is soothing. However nature can always match any mood. Her sounds of rushing water are sometimes more of a tempest’s roar. The photographer said of “Devil’s Churn” on the left, “You see, it’s not just an incredible natural attraction, it’s more than that — it’s the way I saw it: dark, foreboding, gloomy, etc.” It was taken in Devil’s Churn State Park along the Oregon coastline. On the right, this picture is called “Seascape” and was taken at Park Beach, Tasmania.

“Fall River” on top was taken at Kuusamo, Finland. It looks like a spectacular place to get away from it all during the fall season.
