Stunning image captured here. Can you go wrong photographing water? I think not.

Nice frame for the sea. Like a stone window.

what spectacular place!
A beach so deserted populated by the rocks of time is something extremely communicative, in an atavistic way.

Thanks for sharing JM!

I love the calm of a deserted beach, the quiet solitude, and the long shadows. Thanks for setting the scene.

Not a good beach for surfing. A great beach for walking, and even better for photographing.

Rocks and the sea. So common and yet always a delight.

I love how the rocks are framing this shot. I love beaches that have rocky outcroppings.

Love this photo. It reminds me of Big Sur on the Central California Coast.
You can almost hear the waves crashing on the rocks!

Savage and pristine are the adjectives coming to mind. Wonderful image, either.

I want to tell you that Europe in general has always been my dream travel destination, but Portugal was not at the top of my list (I mean this in the kindest way :) ), but YOU have changed this. Your presentation of your area so makes me want to see it. Beautiful!
