Where is the beach?

A few days after the storm the sea still looks very wild. You can't even see the sand in this part of Carcavelos Beach.

Waouhh c'est impressionnant et ça fait peur, j'espere que le batiment a resiste

Oh that is scary to have the water come right up to the houses like that. I like how you got that little dog in the photo :)

Dina said...

Your sea knows no bounds.
So ferocious looking. Great for blog photos, though.

Looks just like our beaches in a storm.

I hope it didn't undercut the foundations there. Great shot.

Leif Hagen said...

No swimming, no sunbathing today! Looks a little scary!

Sharon said...

Wow, that water does look a little scary! There is a lot of churning going on.

Lois said...

That does look scary! It reminds me a little of where I grew up and what it looked like when we were having tropical weather events. That dog seems to be quite brave!

Impressive!As brattcat said, I also hope it didn't affect the foundations there.
Acho que o cachorrinho está bem assustado com a força das ondas!

A great view with the master touch of the running dog, bravo!
I hope that everything there may soon be as it was before this storm.

That's right..the storm and that foam!! The dog looks so cautious! Very dramatic shot here..what a view!! Those folks along the beach front must be on edge (pun intended).

No fury matches the fury of the sea (not even a woman's fury)! Rather a disturbing shot. It looks, though, like the structures there were not damaged...I hope.

Joan Elizabeth said...

This sure is wild. Amazing. I remember other shots you have done of this place in much calmer days.

joo said...

It looks wild but beautiful! Hope the wind wasn't as strong as in Spain!

Gunn said...

I like the shot, and I think the dog ad this extra to the photo.
I hope you will have a nice and warm spring.
No snow where you are?

Mirela said...

Yikes... you should take a photo of this same place when everything calms down...

Wolynski said...

The dog makes the picture.Isn't that building a little too close to the sea?

Small City Scenes said...

That must have been quite a storm. I imagine the buildings were built for event like this. I wonder what the dog is thinking.
Stunning photo though. MB

Joanne said...

Incrível, a praia não existe!

Rob Siemann said...

That looks very rough indeed!

Stefan Jansson said...
