Par 4 at the 7th Hole, a photo from Lisboa, South

Photographer's Note

The Estoril Golf Course exists since 1929 in the first version of 9 holes was by Jean Gassiat and the 18 hole course that followed was in 1945 by Mackenzie Ross, one of the best in is field in the entire world.

This one was taken today, after one odly rainy morning that turned out to be a gorgeaus day for golf.
I've been in the game for...well my entire life. It is the best game in the world. It's life and its really challenging to translate that into a photo.
This is my first attempt.

This is the 7th hole, a 200 mt drive to a left dogleg and an extra 180 mts to the green. A extremely dificult par 4 but worth your while when you look back and look at the path you've done to get there.

it's an interesting perspective. the colours are great and the lines on the fairway make an interesting addition too. for future shots, i would consider doing something similar from a lower pov, especially on a green where the ground is flat. well done!
