By South is delimited by the ocean basin of Lagoa de Óbidos (Óbidos Lagoon) and freguesia of Nadadouro. East by the limits between the freguesias of Serra do Bouro and Nadadouro and West by the ocean basin of Lagoa de Óbidos and the Atlantic Ocean
Foz do Arelho started as being a small village belonging to the freguesia of Serra do Bouro, and was promoted to the category of freguesia in July the 5th, 1919.

Hi Isabel,
This is a very elegant shot indeed. Colours are great, of course, but what makes the magic of your image is the eye being taken all th way to the horizon, on different paths: the sand path, or the paved one, or the dark one on the left hand side. All under a huge, wild sky. Very good job, Isabel! --amz

Very good composition Isabel! The colors are vivid and stunning! The stipes lead the eye from one booth to the next, developing the scene quite well! The sky formation is also good!
TFS!

Hi Isabel. It's not the first time that I see pictures of this but you composed it in a very good manner. Good slight off-centering and due to your pov you create a good depth with the blue one in the back. Well done; very attractive.

Hello Isabel,
Jolie photo, j'aime la perspective donnée par le dallage zébré, les kiosques colorés et ce ciel bien nuageux.
Belle composition !
Amicalement,
Stéphanie.

Gosto muito do enquadramento utilizado nesta fotografia com os quiosques dividos pelos dois planos. A serpente da calçada faz também com que o olhar se perca pelo amarelo no primeiro plano, o analise, e parta de seguida para o azul em segundo plano. Desta forma, criou-se uma profundidade de campo forte e bem marcada. O jogo de cores é também muito harmonioso. Em termos técnicos, a abertura utilizada permite que ambos os quiosques estejam nitidos (ainda que o azul podesse estar um pouco mais). Eu teria experimentado um pouco mais de USM de modo a tornar a areia e a calçada mais sharp (se bem que como a areia não é o mais importante, talvez não fosse muito relevante). Também teria saturado menos as cores, mas isso é um gosto muito pessoal. Excelente.

Hi,
Very nice photo. The interaction of blue and yellow, the brown earth and the grey and white sideway have alltogether made a perfect harmony. Still, 'yellow' has big impact in the photo in my opinion. Compliments.
