Sugarloaf Mountain (in Portuguese, Pão de Açúcar), is a peak situated in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, at the mouth of Guanabara Bay on a peninsula that sticks out into the Atlantic Ocean. Rising 396 metres (1,299 ft) above the harbor, its name is said to refer to its resemblance to the traditional shape of concentrated refined loaf sugar.
What a gorgeous capture, Roberto! Love Sugarloaf, of course, and such lovely blue skies. The touches of rich color in the tree is perfect! Wonderful composition as always! Have a great weekend!

ResponderExcluirI have never seen concentrated loaf sugar...that is very interesting. I need to research it on the internet. This is such a beautiful spot to go for a stroll. I notice that no one is swimming. The tree with its lovely bloom is the center is the real eye catcher. Nicely composed. genie
