On Sunday:
Azenhas do Mar

Went there only to have some coffee while reading.
There's an Ocean Pool which seems dirty but in fact it is filled by the sea oon high tide. the bottom of the pool is full of sea weeds so that's why people are allowed in there. Quite clean actualy.

I love number 4

[Maureen Souza]

Wow, these are so crisp and full of detail and textures. Makes them very pleasing to the eye.

amazing, just amazing

Very Nice
Their all at 50mm, were they taken with the nifty fifty ?

I love number 4

Thanks, cowenbecky,

The #4 is also my favorite, because it shows all the way from the beach to the top, and also the far view and breaking waves.

Beautiful shots, everyone would make a wonderful post card

Thank you Maureen, I'm glad you enjoyed them.
They were shoot in RAW and cnverted in PSCS2. I tryed Rawshooter but didn't like the colors I was getting.
Then the preparation for the web was done with a framming and resizing script that a member of this forum, Mickle, made available for us.
Sharpening was done by the same script at 100; 0,9; 0, which was the default.
First time I used it and I am very happy with it. ;)

amazing, just amazing

Soo... may I assume you liked them? :D:D:D:D:D

Thank you, BtBam!

You got it right! Since I have it, it has become some kind of swiss knife.
I use it 90% of the time. It's leaving the 70-200f4L collecting dust. :D

The 50mm f1.8MkII is one sweet lens and I seem to be fortunate to have a good copy.:)

I fully recomend it to everyone.

I'm glad you liked them Sandy,
Consider them postcards I'm sending from Portugal to you! :cool:;)

I sure am enjoying to see your lovelly barn postcards also, my friend.
Haven´t been able to find time to go shoot some here. We have them but only in the interior, not soo much in the seaside.

Soo you like Azenhas better. I also do. It's a bit to the north of Cascais, passing Sintra.

Thank you.

As I said the framing and resizing + sharpenning was done with a script I got from this thread posted (and made) by Mickle.
