September 18th. 

The sun came out after 3 days (an eternity for me), 

so I went to THE beach to enjoy the sunset.

Nice as usual. ♥

And the night was so clear that I try to experiment a bit with the stars,...

 even if I didn't have the tripod :-/

Palácio da Pena

Palacio da Pena, in Sintra, is a Romanticist palace located on the top of a hill with stunning views. 

It is by far one of the most beautiful and original palace I have seen! 

Actually it is included among the Seven Wonders of Portugal. A must to see!

Oceanário de Lisboa

Here you have some pictures of the Oceanarium of Lisbon, visited in May 2012.

It was pretty hard to take the pictures cause I just had my broken 85mm lens, which just works in Manual focus.

So imagine to try to capture the animals moving all the time, and with low light conditions.

Anyway I'm kinda happy with the result.

Here the pics of another Aquarium I visited 2 years ago: Shedd Aquarium in Chicago:

In that occasion pictures where taken with my 35mm. Better choice for the occasion, definitely.
