So I did.
Esglesia de Santa Maria de Siurana |
We had a spectacular trip. We wound up climbing around the Siurana and Lleida regions in Catalonia. The climbing was world-class and highly varied, on all kinds of different rock types and surfaces. The sheer natural beauty of the geography and landscapes was at times overwhelming (although I got eaten by bugs in the latter, warmer part of the trip).
Like any modern traveller, I brought along a camera, and I took hundreds and hundreds of photographs. It was a new camera whose controls I didn't really have the chance to learn before the voyage began. I discovered that I have to do some work on understanding basic photography principles. I need to take a course or do some reading. And practise!
Nevertheless, I had many opportunities to capture a few intriguing moments along the way. I've extracted what I think are the photos which have a certain level of quality, competence or interest, and I'm happy to share them with you.
I've also posted an annotated album, for those who prefer to scrutinize individual photos (or who don't like music in their slideshows) -- best viewed on a decent monitor and full screen:
