Óbidos Lagoon, Foz-do-Arelho Beach, Portugal

Unlike what is commonly thought, the stormy weather provides conditions for the sometimes spectacular photographic practice abroad, since it gives the results more dramatic and expressive language of Nature. The strong wind brought a cloudy sky and rain would soon appear. In this photo, the sensor of the machine received light for 30 seconds, during which time the charged clouds crossing the pond soon recorded their motion effect on image.
