Enjoy the stunning beauty of Madeira island with this breathtaking photo featuring the Ponta do Pargo lighthouse, a colourful sunset and the light trails of a passing car. 
The lighthouse stands strong and proud, guiding ships to safety as the sun sets and paints the sky with brilliant colours. Meanwhile, the light trails of the passing car add a touch of energy to the scene, bringing life and movement to the breathtaking landscape. 
This photo is a combination of 2 of my favourite photography subjects: landscape photography and night photography. At such moments, I am really in my element :-) 
This was truly one of the most beautiful sunsets I have ever experienced and I almost missed this moment due to road works. Fortunately, the magical colours lingered for almost half an hour and I was still able to take some breathtaking photos of this historic lighthouse with the most beautiful background you could wish for. 
I made 2 edits of this photo. Be sure to take a look at my "Madeira" album to discover the other edit!

When I'm on the road I always have my camera with me because you never know what an opportunity will present itself and it would be a shame not to be able to capture that perfect moment. I like to look..
