Highland and south coast with Lajes do Pico

WI_api078.jpg

View from Piquinho over the highland and the S slopes of Pico in SE direction. The pastures and meadows in the foreground are characteristic for the Azorean landscape. This image shows a common situation where humid air approaches from the N side, so that the S coast enjoys dry and sunny conditions due to foehn effects.
