   Been meaning to climb up on the hill overlooking the Arade bridge at sunset for some time. Needed the right tide and light and a round tuit.

   Got all of them. Two of these are from the Fuji XE4, one is from the iPhone 16 pro

     @snowgaze it’s a lovely bridge in a great setting. I fear however that the best place to photograph it from may be spicy and forbidden. maps.app.goo.gl/dSXfebzGECwgPH…

     @snowgaze (actually, if you pan left from the bridge on that, about midway between the two bridges was where I was standing)

     @snowgaze So I was standing (if the link works) exactly here: maps.app.goo.gl/8U1d1wg2ybSsJY…

     And on the road near the little house for the lower down view. I agree it’s very photogenic too.

     One day I’ll do a similar capture for the Guadiana bridge, but right now that involves having to drive past far too many photos of bloody Ventura with his whole “graças a mim não há portagens” stuff.

     @goatsarah I know that area well, always feel like stopping for a photo when we drive past at sunset, but never do. The little house by the bridge also catches my eye, one day I will go there just to take *that * photo. Thanks for the tip, I was wondering where you took the photo from.

     @snowgaze seen the one near the Forum Algarve roundabout in Faro? It’s got a Hitler moustache on it.

     @goatsarah 🤩 saved it, will try to check it out in the summer. Thanks. My sympathies, can't stand those outdoors either 🤬.

     @goatsarah very appropriate, though I think that suits him just fine.

     @TammyGentzel The closeup is the iPhone.

     Uploading them to fedi has compressed the hell out of them. I took a load more (all raw mode) too, and on the big monitor the difference is very clear.

     The phone is good, but it’s good for a phone. It can’t compete with big glass in front of a big sensor.

     It’s also annoyingly prone to lens flare.

     @goatsarah Fairly certain I know the answer, but do you mind sharing which were the Fuji and which was the iPhone?
