The sunsets of my country. Montevideo, Uruguay.

My name is Martin and I am from a small country located between the brothers Brazil and Argentina.

A country where everyone knows each other and hospitality is one of its main features.

I’m from Uruguay which means “Rio de los Pajaros pintados”. I think that seeing the Rio de la Plata made me understand why they called it that.

The first sunset is from Colonia del Sacramento. One of the first cities in the country. Located in front of Buenos Aires with 2 centuries of antiquity.

The place where I took the photo is called “Las Tunas Beach Bar”. A beautiful restaurant to dinner and enjoy the sunset.

In the last photo you can see the road to the capital Montevideo. That photo was taken in Atlantida a beautiful place to rest in summer and make beach. There also accompanied us the sunset.

I can only recommend that you enjoy and visit this beautiful country. They will not regret it. And if you like photography, I guarantee you that you will have the best pictures of a painted sky.

Hi @eternals14 ands welcome to Connect.

I had the opportunity to visit your country a few years ago and I fell in love with it. The beautiful beaches, the green nature and the hospitality of the local people definitely find a place in my heart. :slight_smile:

I also was really lucky to catch the Uruguayan candombe festival, which impressed me a lot. It would be amazing if could share with the community more about it. I’m sure that a lot of people will enjoy it. :slight_smile:

P.S.: @KlaudiyaG , thanks for tagging me. :wink:

Hola Martín espero que estés bien y cuidándote. Hermosas fotos las logradas, son muchos lugares donde fotografiar esos impresionantes atardeceres además de donde las sacaste, desde la Rambla de Punta Carretas, La Paloma o Piriapólis también son imperdibles.

Abrazo desde Montevideo.

Hola @CAAG1959 gracias por tu comentario. Te cuento que esa foto la saqué hace un par de años desde la rambla de Colonia del Sacramento. Creo que fue uno de los mejores atardeceres que ví en mi vida. Espero haberlo retratado correctamente. Increíblemente mientras te escribo esto, me encuentro nuevamente de paseo por esa misma rambla. Soy de Montevideo y hoy vine a ver si puedo sacar más fotos de este maravilloso lugar. Saludos y espero también te encuentres bien.

Hola Martín, la foto de arriba la saqué en diciembre del 2020 en La Paloma, un atardecer después de una tormenta, no tiene ningún retoque ni filtro.

Saludos.

Woow. Excelente foto. Felicitaciones!!!
