Hi, I'm Ricardo, a photographer from Porto Portugal. Drawn to quiet poetry: soft light on ruins, nature in forgotten places, silent human stories. I photograph feelings, not just scenes. 📷 All original work (except repost) 🚫 No AI

When our only problem was finding someone to play with, and we thought that time would last forever. A nostalgic black and white moment by the sea. #BlackAndWhitePhotography #Childhood #Nostalgia #Sea #Storytelling #Moody #Silhouette
A black and white photograph showing two children playing on a beach. One child stands while the other sits on the wet sand. They are silhouetted against the bright white foam of the ocean waves, with the dark water filling the upper part of the frame.

A beautiful blue sky. Not a single cloud. An empty day ahead. Good weather forecast. Ok, maybe a bit too hot. I want to enjoy that time in the mountains, but I’m not exactly sure about what to do, …

Waiting for a rescue that never comes. An empty chair, a forgotten lifebuoy, on a wall worn away by time. #Urban #Abandoned #Conceptual #Minimalism #Storytelling #photography
A minimalist composition featuring an old, worn office chair sitting alone against a large wooden wall made of horizontal slats. On the upper right side of the wall hangs a weathered orange lifebuoy. The vast empty space between them creates a sense of isolation.

Have a good week from the Valley 🍀🏔🌲 The Brenva Glacier between the Aiguille Noire du Peutèrey and the south-east face of Mont Blanc 📍Val Veny • Italy #MountainMonday #Alps #BlueSkyMonday #EastCoastKin #ECK
The image shows part of the Mont Blanc massif. On the left is the Aiguille Noire du Peutèrey (3,773 m), on the right the south-east face of Mont Blanc (4,807 m), and in the centre the Brenva Glacier. At the bottom, the Dora di Val Veny stream flows through the rocks, and all around there is sparse coniferous vegetation.

A tiny chapel in a sea of mountains. A reminder of how small we are, and how grand nature can be. Happy #MountainMonday #LandscapePhotography #Mountains #Nature #Peaceful #photography #Hiking
A vast mountain landscape with lush green valleys and rocky peaks under a cloudy sky. In the lower left corner, a small chapel with a bell tower sits alone on a grassy slope, highlighting the immense scale of the surrounding mountains.

The house breathes through its broken window. A silent story of abandonment, frozen in time. #BlackAndWhitePhotography #Abandoned #Urbex #Storytelling #Decay #photography
A black and white photo of an old, abandoned window. A tattered, white lace curtain blows out of the open window into the dark, empty interior. The wall around the window is heavily stained and peeling. There is a small iron balcony railing below the window.

Not just about tiles anymore. It's about time, texture, and decay. It looks like dirty wax melting away. This was a small series about the walls of Porto. Which one was your favorite? #AbstractPhotography #Texture #UrbanDecay #Streetphotography #Moody #Art #Porto
A close-up of a highly weathered wall. The original yellow and black tile pattern is almost unrecognizable, covered in thick, rough, greyish-brown grime and peeling layers. The surface looks like melted wax or corroded stone, showing extreme decay and texture.

The beauty and the Narrative New voices on old walls and a modern sticker on a century-old tile. The city's layers are always adding up. #StreetArt #UrbanPhotography #StreetPhotography #Storytelling #Photography

Life and Rupture 1- Layers of time. The tiles on the left, the scars on the right. A portrait of a city that never stops changing. 2- Laundry hanging over traditional blue tiles. A perfect contrast between the everyday and the eternal. #StreetPhotography #DailyLife #Storytelling #Photography
A close-up of a wall divided into two halves. On the left, a grid of white, blue, and red geometric tiles. On the right, a weathered wall with peeling yellow paint revealing a rough, black surface underneath.A building facade covered in blue and white patterned tiles. Two windows with red frames are open, and clotheslines stretch across them, with light-colored laundry hanging to dry. A large stone window frame is visible on the right.

Geometry of an empty market. The quiet work before the crowd arrives. #Architecture #Minimalism #StreetPhotography #Market #UrbanLife #photography
A top-down view of an empty market corridor with light grey concrete floors. A person in a dark jacket is pushing a black cleaning cart down the center in direction of a warm orange light glow. On either side are market stalls filled with colorful fruits, under large grey sloped roofs.

Some doors are meant to stay closed. The past slowly fades away, but nature keeps knocking. #Urbex #AbandonedPlaces #Decay #Moody #NatureWins #DarkPhotography
An old, decaying double wooden door with broken windows and peeling paint, surrounded by a damp wall. Small green plants grow at its base, reclaiming the abandoned entrance.

Great weather (for me 😁) around Albuquerque last night. The monsoon season is winding down, so opportunities like this are getting scarce. May be one of my last lightning shots for a while. #NMwx #Bolthunter #lightning #monsoon #electric #weather #photography #nature #landscape #NewMexico (still)
Night time lightning beneath sculpted cloud. with branching cloud to ground bolt strikes near the horizon, while bluish purple lightning illuminates the rain shaft and surrounding cloud structure. Sparse cholla cactus in the shadowed foreground, with faint distant lights and a subtle magenta glow from sunset along the horizon.

The strange, golden silence just after the total solar eclipse. The mountains were bathed in a light that felt almost unreal. #Eclipse #LandscapePhotography #GoldenHour #Mountains #Atmosphere #Minimalism #MountainLayers #Silhouette #Spain #Photography #Galicia #España #Landscape
A serene landscape of layered mountain silhouettes fading into thick mist. The sky is filled with a warm, glowing golden-orange light, capturing the unusual atmosphere just after a total solar eclipse. The foreground hills are dark and shadowed, contrasting with the bright, hazy sky.

One races against the clock, the other bends with the wind. Time shapes us in different ways. #Perspective #NatureVsHuman #CoastalRun #Resilience #OceanView #Running #photography #seascape
A man in dark running clothes is jogging on the path. To the right, a tree with green leaves is bent dramatically sideways by the strong coastal wind, creating a funny optical illusion that makes it look like the runner went by so fast that he warped the tree. The ocean and a blue sky are in the background.

There are silences that weigh more than words. Alone, she stares at the sea as if looking for answers that life hasn't given her yet. #StreetPhotography #Moody #Melancholy #Silence #Solitude #EmotionalPhotography
A woman sits alone on a wooden bench on a seaside promenade, facing away from the camera, with her arm resting on the backrest. She stares out at the rough ocean, brightly lit by the sun, reflecting on the water. The ground shows geometric shadows cast by the bench, and a pigeon stands on the floor to the left. Dark leaves from a tree frame the top of the image. The atmosphere is melancholic and quiet.

Nature always finds a way. 🌱 A single ray of light in the shadows, and life refuses to give up. A quiet reminder that even in decay, resilience will always bloom, and nature will always fight to survive. #Nature #Resilience #Urbex #Abandoned #LifeFindsAWay #Contrast #Hope #photography
A bright green plant growing through a crack in a dark, abandoned concrete building, illuminated by a single ray of sunlight.
