Description
Not representative of the whole city, obviously, but it's quite a classic view. The Lagoa Rodrigo de Freitas (in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) at sunset, with the christmas tree all lighted up. The tree also briefly plays christmas songs every 30 minutes throughout the night, which is nice. At 9 pm every Saturday they put on a show with fireworks. It's a shame about the grey clouds, really, but not much I can do about them. D:More pictures from this shoot will be gradually uploaded for the next few days.
Canon 7D.
Taken at Tania's house.
Critiques are welcome.

Linda foto! Como eu tenho sorte de ser carioca...
Você tirou essa foto perto do parque da Catacumba, né?
Sinceramente achei que as nuvens deram um toque muito legal de contraste no céu.
Posso fazer uma aquarela a partir dessa foto?

Obrigada!
Honestamente, sou Tijucana e não conheço a Lagoa direito... Mas foi da casa de uma amiga lá. Depois daquele posto enooorme.
Eu sinceramente preferiria sem a nuvem à extrema direita, mas, fazer o que...
Claro que pode! Depois por favor me mostre a aquarela!

O posto enooorme fica na frente do parque.
Morei muitos anos na tijuca. Ainda tenho mtos vínculos por lá.
Tenho feito umas aquarelas de lugares, mas não são do RJ. Sua foto, apesar de vc dizer "clássica" paisagem, foge do clichê do que vejo em geral. A gente vê muito aqui no dA Corcovado, Pão de Açúcar e Baía da Guanabara, e pouco forte de Copacabana, largo do Boticário, centro da cidade Sta Teresa, parque das ruínas... enfim... aqui não falta lugar bom!
Qdo a pintura ficar pronta, posto aqui e te aviso. Não vou começar agora. No momento estou fazendo outra.
Parabéns pela galeria!

Ah, bom, agora eu já sei.
Eu sou fã da Tijuca, para mim está entre os melhores bairros do Rio, embora infelizmente um pouco decadente.
Tudo bem, quando terminar é só me avisar. c: Vou dar uma passadinha pela sua galeria agora mesmo!
Obrigada.
