Um breve apanhado do que foi este descer o Vouga que o Carlos Carneiro orientou, apesar de na verdade termos andado apenas uma meia-horita no rio Vouga. Como sempre: super descontraído e muito boa onda, e com aquela sensação de se estar fora de tudo, mesmo com Aveiro ao fundo.

A person is preparing colorful kayaks by a calm riverbank under a cloudy sky, with tall grass in the foreground.A signpost labeled Desvio stands partially submerged in calm water under a cloudy sky.A group of people is sitting and relaxing on a sandy beach near a body of water, with some shoes and a kayak visible in the background.A kayak loaded with gear and two paddles rests on a pebbled shore beside calm water under a cloudy sky.A man is captured mid-jump into a narrow body of water while a dog stands nearby on the grassy bank.A volleyball net is set up on a grassy field with a ball at the base of the net and five lounge chairs lined up in the background.A tent is set up on a grassy riverbank at dusk, with calm water reflecting the fading light of the sky.A group of people are gathered outdoors at night by the water, with one person exhaling smoke that is illuminated in the dark.Two people are sitting by a campfire on a dark beach near the water.Three kayaks are resting on the shore near a calm body of water, with a city skyline visible in the distance.

Here we go again… With the first really hot days we all know what comes along with it. It’s going to be a long summer…

Heatwave night

A view through a window shows a colorful sunset sky on one side and a beige apartment building on the other.

Spotlight

Dark, heavy clouds loom over a row of tall residential buildings, casting shadows on the cityscape below.

Pink Chelas…

A car's steering wheel is covered with a pink fluffy cover, and a dreamcatcher hangs from the rearview mirror, with a reflection of clouds on the window.

Por incrível que pareça ainda não tinha colocado o meu projecto “Chão que não se pisa, não dá fruto” no site, ou melhor, tinha mas não estava visível. Estava na hora de corrigir isso, e convido a todos a ir lá dar uma olhada!

A small television displaying static is placed above lace curtains in a dimly lit room.

Random bits from the blissful last few days between water and muddy islands…

A white refrigerator stands outdoors on a concrete slab next to a red container, surrounded by dense greenery and foliage.A Desvio sign is partially submerged in calm, overcast waters, suggesting flooding.Two kayaks with orange paddles are resting on a pebbled shore by a calm, cloudy body of water.A small tent is pitched near a grassy lakeshore against the backdrop of a colorful sunset.A field of lush, green grass sways gently in the breeze.

Finalista Prémio CC11 de Fotografia de 2026

Fim de semana meio desligado das redes, só agora no regresso consegui ver os resultados do Prémio CC11 de Fotografia. Bastante contente por o meu trabalho “Chão que não se pisa, não dá fruto” ter sido um dos finalistas, no meio de outros excelentes projectos, em particular o lindíssimo “Por Cuidar” que a Cátia Valente fez em paralelo comigo na Masterclass Narrativa.

Parabéns a todos! E obrigado ao júri e à Associação CC11.

From last weekend, not quite going out on a dedicated photo walk, more like taking photos while running my errands, but feels good to wander after light and shadow on sunny days
