Viewpoint
Favor the classic viewpoint looking across the lake in Bosque Maia toward the wooden bridge and native forest with the Serra da Cantareira rising in the background, showing weeping willow fronds and lake-shore grasses in the foreground, the calm lake waters, wooden footbridge, and park trees in the middle-ground, and the massive, forested mountain wall of Cantareira fading in the background.
Palette
Green should be the predominant color, especially in the thick Atlantic rainforest canopies of the Serra da Cantareira, mature trees of Bosque Maia, and Lago dos Patos willows.
