The Church of Santa Maria de Belém together with Jerónimos Monastery, Lisbon, Portugal

The Church of Santa Maria de Belém | Lisbon, Portugal

by Lisandra Correia | Jun 26, 2019 | 0 comments

The Church of Santa Maria de Belém together with the Jerónimos Monastery, are the finest examples of the Portuguese Late Gothic Manueline style. Though carrying similar architectural styles, in our modern world now, the church and the monastery have quite a contrasting experience.

Some photos are spontaneous captures of the moment Some photos are spontaneous captures of the moment. Others, however, can require quite a bit of planning.⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀ This is one of the "others", a shot I had in mind for years. I love skyscraper skylines and hence I immediately liked Warsaw when I first visited it in 2014.⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀ When visiting the city, I saw that the Novotel hotel is perfectly located. Traveling occasionally to Warsaw to visit our @photoclaim_official head office, in 2018 we finally booked our stay in the hotel. The view was great, but the light was not right.⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀ I did my planning with @photopills and figured out that I need to be there in the middle of summer. That's the only time when the sun will align with the palace of culture. 🌇⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀ So I was delighted when we received a wedding invitation from a dear friend and the wedding was supposed to take place on the last weekend of June. I immediately knew where we would book our accommodation.⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀ And here we are. After being in my head for 6 years, on my concrete plan-list for 2 years and getting lucky with the weather: My shot of the Warsaw Skyline.⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀ ____________________________________⁠⠀ #warsaw #poland #warszawa #polska #vscopoland #warsawpoland #warszawacentrum #warszawa_love #instawarsaw #instawarszawa #palackulturyinauki #palackultury #visitpoland #polandisbeautiful #polandphotos #ilovepoland #instapoland #sumfinity #eurotravel #travelblogs #citybreaks #citytrips #travelideas #lonelyplanet #mylpguide #skyline
I've received a photo critique on this image, that I've received a photo critique on this image, that left me speechless at the time.⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀ A photographer I highly respect, looked at 3 images that I selected for the critique, with this being the last. His first comment was: "You sell your photos, right?"⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀ At first, I thought this was a compliment.⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀ To my surprise, he went on talking about how he too took such postcard pictures in the past. And that at some point, it made him feel like a prostitute.⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀ He recommended me to explore further fields apart from just taking these kinds of photos, not having anything further to say on the photos I selected for this group critique session.⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀ Since he was one of the few photographers, who I really looked up to (and I still highly respect him), it took me some time to process this comment. Even made me doubt myself for a moment.⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀ But soon I came to the conclusion that I'm a pretty lucky guy. These are the photos that I love to create. The photos that capture a place in such beauty, that I dream about going back immediately when I look at the photo again. ⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀ And if what I love doing most, is at the same time considered mainstream - then I don't have to change my preferences. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Instead, I can be grateful what pays my bills at the same time makes me happy and neither has to feel like a job, nor prostitution.⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀ And if you guys also enjoy my photography, I guess all is good. ❤️⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀ ___________________________________⁠⠀ #TopPortoPhoto #amar_porto #porto #oporto #igersporto #portolovers #visitportugal #portugallovers #portugal_lovers #super_portugal #wonderlustportugal #TopPortugalPhoto #portugalemclicks #portugal_a_gramas #sharing_portugal #TopEuropePhoto #europe_vacations #ig_europe #Ok_Europe #map_of_europe #visiteurope #sumfinity #eurotravel #travelblogs #citybreaks #citytrips #travelideas #lonelyplanet #mylpguide
Have a great weekend everyone ✌️ ⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀ I felt tempted to edit some old photos. Somehow feels not right to work on the shots from Iceland while sitting in the 22 Celsius sun of Lisbon 🙈 ⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀ So instead I think back to the summer in Copenhagen, where I took this photo. The church looks a bit weird from the outside - but once you enter, it has a magical feel to it. ⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀ Minimalistic and back then not touristic, so plenty of time and space to find the right angle to capture it. Totally loved it back then and happy with how the photo turned out 😊 ⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀ ⠀⁠⠀⁠⠀ ________________ #copenhagen #denmark #grundtvig #kobenhavn #visitcopenhagen #visitdenmark #igerscopenhagen #copenhagenlife #wonderfulcopenhagen #govisitdenmark #loves_united_denmark #igdenmark #beautifuldenmark #sumfinity

Nothing comes close to hiking up to a shooting loc Nothing comes close to hiking up to a shooting location at night, having no idea what to expect from the location. ⠀ Normally you can’t (or shouldn’t) do this. But given that the @photopills guys know the locations by heart, it’s a big change to my usual all planned out approach. ⠀ You have to set up your gear in the dark, only having the beams of the lighthouse. Just enough to assume your composition. ⠀ Then you wait. And hope. And smile once the sun goes up exactly where you expected it. ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ __________________________________________ #sumfinity #eurotravel #travelblogs #travelideas #europetravel #exploreeurope #visiteurope #europetour #travelblogging #europeanvacation #traveldestinations #traveleurope #travelbloggers #travelinspiration #travelblog #travelblogger #menorca #photopills #photopillscamp #baleares #spainiswonderful #visitspain #balearicislands #spain #espana

Lisbon - The City of Light⁠ ⠀⁠ While it was Lisbon - The City of Light⁠ ⠀⁠ While it was great to travel to Iceland last week, I must say I'm also very happy to be back in my new home in Lisbon, or as some call it: The City of Light.⁠ ⠀⁠ If you've ever visited the Portuguese capital, I'm sure you've noticed how bright it is, haven't you? It's almost an unreal feeling, and the light is the reason why a lot of TV commercials are shot here.⁠ ⠀⁠ ⠀⁠ ⠀⁠ #lisbon #portugal #lisboa #visitportugal #visitlisbon #lisbonlovers #lissabon #igersportugal #lisboalive #ilovelisbon #lovelisbon #inlisbon #super_portugal #experienceportugal #portugal_lovers #travelgram #amar_portugal #sumfinity #toplisbonphoto #TopPortugalPhoto #ponte25deabril #ponte25abril
Did you know that I had photos of Iceland covering Did you know that I had photos of Iceland covering my wall when I was a teenager? I even had an Icelandic flag. 🇮🇸 ⠀ The island always had a magic feeling to me. But yet, despite having traveled all over Europe, I did not make it to Iceland. Until now. ⠀ I think I was scared that I would be disappointed. That after all these years of building up expectation, reality couldn't keep up with my imagination. So I kept putting it off. Until now. ⠀ And now that I'm here, I'm so relieved to say: My imagination was nothing. Nothing compared to the reality of this raw nature. ⠀ Do you have such place of your own? Which is it? But anyways: Stop the ping-pong playing in your head and just go! ⠀ Big thanks to @skylum_global to allow me no more excuses. 🙏 And to @danielkordan for being an amazing model 😜 ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #luminarphotocamp #skogafoss #iceland #sumfinity #icelandtravel #wheniniceland #ig_iceland #visiticeland #icelandtrip
What't the first thing in my mind, thinking back a What't the first thing in my mind, thinking back about Cyprus? 🇨🇾 ⠀ Contrasts. And Goosebumps. ⠀ Not just the differences between North and South. Greek and Turkish. I don't even want to get into that, since when I wrote about this in the past I got a ridiculous amounts of angry messages from BOTH sides. 😈 ⠀ I will never forget looking up the wall decorated with razor wire in Nikosia - only to see children running around on a playground on the other side. As Berliner, who is too young to have first-hand experience of this at home, this gave me goosebumps big time. ⠀ But just look at this building. Is it a church? Is it a mosque? Well, how about just saying that it is both? ⠀ This building as a long, a very long history. And deciding on one or the other will obviously piss off the other side. But I bet so do I by deciding on neither. 😂 ⠀ Peace out!✌️ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #architecture #ig_europe #visiteurope #travellover #traveleurope #exploreeurope #sumfinity #cyprus #nikosia #кипр #lovecyprus #cypruslife #ok_europe #europe_gallery #travelbuddy #loves_europe #travellingtheworld #travelholic
It's been 3 weeks. 3 weeks since we arrived in Lis It's been 3 weeks. 3 weeks since we arrived in Lisbon, knowing we will stay for at least the next 2 years. ::: We've been talking about moving to a sunnier environment for 5 years or more. 𝑫𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒈. To actually go and do it, is another story though. It has taken time, but now that I'm here, I wonder why we waited so long. ::: You'll find 101 reasons not to do it. What to do with all your stuff you have in your current home? How to make it work to keep in touch with friends and family? What if I don't like the place we're going to? The timing is never right. ::: The best advice I've received, was to just go and try it out for a limited time. First we've been in Lisbon for 2 weeks. After a week we wanted to escape the city. After two weeks, we extended the stay for another two weeks. And then two weeks more in Porto. ::: A year later, we came for 10 weeks to Lisbon. ::: Half a year later, we came now for 21 months to Lisbon. ::: Let's see what comes then. 𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗯𝗶𝗴 𝗷𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗮 𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗹𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗽. ::: Lesson learned. If you have a dream: Just figure out the very next step you can take to get closer to it. And do it. Don't put it off for another 5 years. ♥ ::: Do you dream about moving somewhere? Or are you already living in your happy place?

It was my 6th visit to Poznan, Poland. And after f It was my 6th visit to Poznan, Poland. And after five times "scouting", finally I had the conditions that were worth waking up early. 🙌 . What you see here is the center of Poznan, the town hall and the picturesque small, colorful houses next to it. . You'll notice that they're quite narrow. Did you know that this is due to taxes? 😅
Have you seen my stories today? I've waited 3 mont Have you seen my stories today? I've waited 3 months to get the weather conditions I wanted. 🌤 : Today in the morning, the weather app finally announced it: Strong wind from west and a mix of clouds and blue sky, allowing for long exposures that draw the viewer right into the photo. : Five hours later, I'm done & happy. Here's the first result from the iconic Potsdamer Platz.

When we arrived at the Cavalleria Lighthouse, not When we arrived at the Cavalleria Lighthouse, not much was going on. There have been some nice clouds, but to our left and outside of the frame that I had in mind for my photo. : A quick check of CloudMoverAR on the @photopills app, and @gmarques and me came to the conclusion that those clouds would move into the frame just in time. : So all I had to do was wait. : When we went up to the cliff in the dark, 3 pairs of eyes were looking back at me in the beam of my headlamp. Scary for a second, but I quickly could see that it's been goats. When they saw us coming, they swiftly moved away. : Gérman later spotted them behind us, so I walked around a bit in their area, while the clouds did their magic and moved into the right direction. : And then for a moment, it all came together. Perfect light, perfect clouds. : Imagine. Plan. Shoot. And now Gérman, make sure you release the CloudMoverAR 😜
Guess what - there was something new this year in Guess what - there was something new this year in the @photopills Camp. : When I first arrived on the Menorca Island, I was stunned by the turquoise water. This is what paradise looks like! : Well, luckily this year we actually went to a beach called Talis. An area that's just perfect to capture the beauty of the crystal clear water of the Mediterranean Sea. : After enjoying the sunset, we had our picnic and waited for the stars to come out. It took a while, and the wait was surprisingly freezing cold due to the humidity. But then, finally, we could see the Milky Way arching over the nearby town Son Bou.
The 3rd Photopills camp just came to an end. This The 3rd Photopills camp just came to an end. This year, we got lucky. : Despite some locations being the same, they're yet always somewhat different every year. : Stormy days followed by some dry and sunny ones caused the sea water to first gather around the Favaritx lighthouse and then to evaporate - leaving behind the salt. : Thankfully, photography allows me to notice such things that otherwise I would never pay attention to.
The last 3 weeks haven't been easy. Sorry for not The last 3 weeks haven't been easy. Sorry for not posting any new photos! 🙏 : Some big changes at PhotoClaim, some long-term and overdue projects coming to an end and all while traveling, working and living between Germany, Poland and Portugal. : It's sometimes tough to find space for both of my passions, photography and entrepreneurship. I look forward to seeing all those new changes come to life as much as I'm looking forward to taking some time off and doing a photo trip. Finding the balance between the two doesn't always work out as much as I would like to - and that's usually what happens if you don't hear from me for 2-3 weeks. : But all is well and exciting things are to come! Bear with me, please. And for now, sail smoothly into the weekend ✌️
Have a great weekend everyone!☀️ : Huge thanks Have a great weekend everyone!☀️ : Huge thanks to @jpssmatias for taking me to this breathtaking spot on the most western edge of our European continent. 🇵🇹
