The image displays a wide view of the Miranda do Douro Dam (Barragem de Miranda) on the Douro River, situated near the city of Miranda do Douro, Portugal. The foreground and mid-ground are occupied by a large expanse of green-tinted water with visible surface ripples. On the right, a prominent, light-grey concrete structure, part of the dam complex, rises from the water, exhibiting vertical and horizontal panel lines. A small, solitary green tree is positioned on the flat upper surface of this structure. Adjacent to and extending left into the water from this main structure is a series of multiple concrete gates or spillways. The background features steep, rugged mountainsides rising directly from the water's edge, characterized by exposed grey rock and dense green and brown vegetation. A distinct horizontal concrete structure, appearing as an aqueduct or channel, is visible high on the left mountain slope. The sky is clear and light blue with a slight atmospheric haze. No individuals, animals, or vehicles are visible in the scene.
