Alqueva

Alqueva lake with rocky island and Monsaraz village in the background. Alentejo, Portugal (Miguel Angelo Silva)

What: The big lake with rocks
Where: Mourao, Alentejo, Portugal
When: March 2012
How: This is a very simple shot. It was done at sunset with the sun about to disappear. Since I wanted to motion blur the water, used the Big Stopper from Lee Filters mounted on the Nikkor 24-70 f:2.8 lens. The 10 stops reduction from the Big Stopper allowed me to go down to 30 seconds exposure.
