Photographed at Praia do Magoito, on the western coast of Sintra, where at the right time the clouds take on very intense colours.
About the photo
Golden hour is the time before sunset when the light is low and warm. At Magoito the cliffs and open sea change a lot in that light, but the sky does not always cooperate. That evening the clouds coloured up for just a few minutes.
I know this beach well and also use it for photo sessions and marriage proposals, because late-afternoon light flatters people and the setting needs nothing else.
