Lisbon winter light

Lisbon winter light

I love Lisbon. I love winter light. Love the low, soft, warm golden light that makes every photo look good with flattering shadows and great colors.

 

NIKON D90 (85mm, f/8, 1/1600 sec, ISO320)

I love to use it to capture dramatic landscapes, probably the immediate choice in photography, but also in many other ways. One is street photography, I love how the light is so low it enters the streets just like every walking on it, not directly from above. This works quite well in a city like Lisbon, with its narrow streets and seven hills.
