Golden Hour: captivating sunset over Ponta Delgada downtown
Hi there my Steemian friends and followers!
I hope you have been enjoying the beautiful pump that our beloved crypto has been through since yesterday :) Keep up this great momentum, Steem!
As usually, it is my pleasure to brighten up the rest of your weekend with another sunset photo.
I took this shot just a couple of days ago while walking along the promenade here in Ponta Delgada, the capital city of the Sao Miguel Island as well as the entire Azorean archipelago. The image captures a part of the local marina and the downtown.
Home to almost 70,000 people, Ponta Delgada is the only place on the islands where you can feel some kind of the city vibe. I know that for people from some really large metropolises this place would sound like a tiny coastal village but all of the other "major towns" of the Azore islands have a population of only a few thousand people (or even less) so Ponta Delgada is actually by far the most urban place that you can visit here.
I am known to prefer remote, natural places to cities but here on the Azores, it is very inconvenient to live in the countryside if you don´t have a car (and we don´t :D) so we decided to relocate to Ponta Delaga. We just happened to be offered a great AirBnb deal here for one month so we grabbed it. We are also going to make some exciting trips to some other parts of the island where we haven´t been yet and I cannot wait to get some nice fresh photo material for my future episodes of the Beauties of Azores series ;) The next one is coming on Tuesday so stay tuned!
Enjoy the rest of your weekend everyone and have a great start to the new week tomorrow!

Díky moc :) I za to občerstvení. Doufám, že pivečko je od vás z Plzně, to mi tady hodně chybí :D
Není zač. Jj, plzeňské, pivo z Plzně to je pojem. :-) Ale tam máte jistě taky nějaká místní piva nejen import. :-)
Joo, něco tady je :) Zrovna včera jsem fotil pro své kamarády, co jsou velcí pivní fajnšmekři, ukázku místní nabídky :D
No koukám, hodně speciálů tam máte v nabídce, to je dnes trend všude ve světě , ale tyhle piva já taky můžu. :-)
Zatím jsem tu vyzkoušel asi pět značek a většina zdaleka nedosahovala ani českého průměru. Jsme holt světová pivní velmoc no :D
:-)) To jo. Má to tu tradici. :-) i v menším měřítku. Dneska je u nás přes 500 minipivovarů.
Jo ty minipivovary u nás teď rostou jak houby po dešti :) Podle mě je to jen dobře. Mám kamaráda, opravdového pivního fanatika, který jich navštívil už skoro 200 :D
Nice scene with the clouds coming in...
Enjoy if you are still there ;)
Yes, still here :) For at least one more month actually :) Thanks buddy!
Sounds great... island life is the best! :)

Yeah..yesterday really great pump of the steem and other alt coins. That's interesting thing to every steemians. We have refresh our feelings again and good time for staying with steem. You've captured such a beautiful evening. Those lights gave fabulous reflection.
Yeah, it was a nice morale booster. It was also great to find out that Steem was pumping significantly more than most other alts. The future is bright for our community, that´s for sure ;)
Další nádhera. Kdybys je dal všechny k sobě, tak si asi nevyberu. Bral bych je všechny :-D
Fakt? I ty městské? :) Neříkám, že nemají své kouzlo, ale příroda je příroda, no ne? ;)
Tady jsem měl na mysli všechny tvé východy a západy slunce :-D
Já vím :) Jen mě překvapilo, že se ti ty z městského prostředí líbí stejně jako ty z přírody ;)
Dívám se hlavně na tu hru světla :-). Příroda je samozřejmě příroda, ale i siluety staveb a pod. mají něco do sebe.
