Photo submitted by Pedro Trigo Moutinho, “This picture was taken this week in Valongo – Sobrado, after this summer’s fires in Portugal. The green color was taken by the black color, it’s sad to see my country taken by the flames.”

We had a second photo submitted showing the results of the summer fires, see it after the break.

We love to see your photos and would like to show them to the world here on the Pic Of The Day. Send in your photo with a brief description here.

Don’t be sad! It will look amazing next summer! Happened around my neck of the woods and its beautiful 3 years later!!! Sometimes erosion can be a problem but in general its natures re-set.

The problem is when reforestation is made with eucalyptus instead of the original species. This is probably one of the reasons for men made fires in Portugal.
