Conhece todos os miradouros em Lisboa?... Miradouro do Jardim Botânico da Ajuda

This beautiful botanical garden just steps from Ajuda Palace is beautifully decorated with plants and sculptures. It’s also a beautiful lookout point, as it’s split into two levels, and from the stairs that connect them is a wonderful view of 25 de Abril Bridge and of the Monument to Christ.

Este belo jardim botânico, a poucos metros do Palácio da Ajuda, está muito bem ornamentado com plantas e pedra esculpida. É também um belo miradouro, pois das escadas que dividem os seus dois tabuleiros tem-se uma vista da Ponte 25 de Abril e do Cristo Rei.

Astronomy picture of the day - 2015 September 8 - Distorted Green Flash Sunset over Italy

Distorted Green Flash Sunset over Italy 
Image Credit & Copyright: Paolo Lazzarotti

Explanation: This was one strange sunset. For one thing, the typically round Sun appeared distorted, geometrically, and multiply layered. For another, some of these layers appeared unusually green. The Sun, of course, was just fine -- its odd appearance was caused entirely by its light refracting in the Earth's atmosphere. When layers of the Earth's atmosphere are unusually warm, layers of the Sun may appear distorted or even seen multiple times. The effect is moststrong nearest sunrise and sunset when terrestrial inversion layers occupy distinct altitudes above the horizon. Different colors of the Sun may also become deflected by significantly different amounts, so that the uppermost superior image may appear momentarily green -- a phenomenon known as a green flash. The featured image was taken in February from Porto Venere, Italy, with San Pietro church situated in the foreground.
