PhotographerMiguel ClaroLocationLisbon- PortugalDate17/06/07 at 21h37EquipmentEquipment: HP Photosmart 850. ISO100 1/0.86" F-2.9DescriptionIn this picture we can see the planet Venus the Moon with a litle Earthshine and The Bélem Tower. It was built in the early 16th century in the Portuguese late Gothic style, the Manueline, to commemorate the expedition of Vasco de Gama. This defensive, yet elegant construction has become one of the symbols of the city, a memorial to the Portuguese power during the Age of the Great Discoveries. In 1983 it was classified, together with the nearby Mosteiro dos Jerónimos, as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. |

The mountain in all of the photos is Mount. Derak, located in the north west of the city. We had an unprecedented thunder storm in here that night, and I took the risk to go above the roof while many thunderbolts were hitting the ground someplace not much far from where I was, as it can be seen in the images. |
