Description

Porto, Portugal. My favorite place to be. This will be the spot for the upcoming Redbull Air Race this weekend. I never get tired of this view, it's wonderful from anywhere.

A green filter was added. Unfortunately there was no way to capture this view without having avoiding the diagonal ground, which I know can be a bit distracting. But still it's a very dear shot to me.

Nice place!
Been there too!
Don't actually like the green cast to much.
A bit dark in some places lacking details.

I like a blue sky

I like... it gives a old look to the shot, has most of the houses from both side of the river.
I will be at same spot this saturday

but not for the air race

Cool one, I'm not sure about green filter but it makes the photo a bit fantastic so it works for me

Sky is a bit noisy you can reduce it with photoshop. +10

When talking about filter , I think, in this case sepia could be better( or some filter to make photo looks older) .
althought the composition is nice

Beautiful old fashion boats. Looks like going back in a time tunnel. If only that ugly bridge wasn't there...

I on the other hand really like the greens!

I only wish the grey boxy thingy wasn't there on the foreground...

But nice job!

I like it! The foreground angle helps create movement, and the bridge helps five it a kind of Miyazaki feel to it with the old buildings and boats, like you're not sure when this scene is. The green gives it a kind of old-fashioned sepia toned feel, but higher key, which I think gives it a good twist on an otherwise boring nostalgia shot.

I'm adding this place to my list of travel destinations!
