November Photo of the Month

This month’s award for Photo of the Month goes to a new recruit to the Fotoviva Team, Paulo Lopes and his stunning shot entitled ‘Behind the Sun’.

Paulo is our second member of the team from Portugal and joins Pedro with some incredible photographic work, especially seascape images. This picture shows the sunset over Adraga’s Beach at Sintra Natural Park in Portugal.

Paulo spent almost all his youth in the rural part of the country, so nature soon became a very familiar environment, making part of his everyday life. However, it was only around his 26th birthday that he got enough money to buy his first camera, a new Canon 300D – since then he has never stopped taking photographs.

Years later, photography still makes part of his daily life. His passion for nature and landscape take all of his time so, when he is not working, he is driving, seeking for the best place, the best light for the best shot. It’s a quest for perfection, that needs to be worked with passion, effort and lots of dedication. Sounds like he has the right ingredients for the Fotoviva team!

His work has been recognized in Portugal but also worldwide, such as in magazines, competitions and photography websites. He now sports a Canon 5D with several lenses and often uses Lee filters, including a 105mm Circular Polarizer and Neutral Density Grads.
