The photos in the following gallery were shot in the area near Terminal Maritimo in Horta, Faial Island, Açores, Portugal.

I’ve posted many of these before, but I’ve re-edited the photos in this gallery.

Beautiful images. All very crisp. I love the last one, very dreamy feel about it. Those are very low clouds and they make the sky look like it’s sinking. I went out for a walk at night the other day after work in the city with my Canon G7X. I really wished I had a tripod then 😀
You can get a lot of cool photos with a high ISO too, but a tripod is really a must have. It’s probably the only equipment that I think everyone should have for their camera.
As you inferred, a higher ISO means more noise which I think many of us would rather avoid in some situations. Tripods don’t come cheap. Time to start saving. Hope you’ve had a good week Cardinal. The weekend’s not far off 🙂
Yes, it means more noise, but sometimes noise can be a good thing – for example if it’s a photo shot in a bar, it can add this old, grainy film feel to the scene.
Beautiful shots!
Thank you Sunshine!
What a lovely gallery! The night mood is fabulous.
The mood on this island at night was fabulous too. All I could hear was the wind in the trees and the waves that hit the rocks.
Bokeh and the mirror are my faves. Pretty atmospheric.
Thank you Mara. The bokeh comes from tiny drops of rain.
I agree with Mara … the mirror photo is my favourite too.
I just wish that the mirror was clean… 🙂
Glorious evening shots Cardinal, 5327 is the cherry for my cake!
I love cherries! That tiny bit of flare from the moon, it’s the only time I’ve experienced that.
Muito , muito bom!
Spectacular takes!
Muchas gracias Señorita!
Wonderful night shots. I particularly — for obvious reasons — like the last one, with the mountain, the clouds, and the lights of the city. Magical!
Thanks. It felt a bit magical to get the shot right too: it was so dark that I couldn’t actually see the volcano, so I had to try & fail a few times to get it right.
Beautiful night shots.
Thanks Colline.
Wow, what a set of shots ~ and in my perfect medium of the darkness of night. Well done!
I love night photography too. It’s probably my favorite time to go out and shoot photos.
Me too, night life has a lot to say ~ and can get creative with light. These shots you took are great.
Smooth, glowing skies. Fabulous gallery.. I would love to see that volcano.
I hope that you get to see it some day Paula. Faial is a nice island and the view to Mount Pico is fantastic.
Amazing photos!
Have a nice week-end!

Totally gorgeous! 🙂 Especially like 5385, 5363 and that glorious last one.
Thanks Jo. This was an easy island to shoot at: something nice to see and photograph wherever you turned your head.
Great clear images, particularly like the featured image MM🍀
Thanks a lot Mick!
