The calm during the storm

April 28, 2022 in photographs

Galicia, April 2022.

I found this composition during the recent blizzard we had around here. At that moment, the scene was clear, and I was capturing distracting elements in the frame besides the building and the rock.

I thought that was the best I could do in the field, and that I'd have to work the image in post to get rid of the distractions. Luckily for me, nature gave me a hand in the form of a cloud that created some beautiful foggy conditions for a few minutes. Enough for me to capture the scene with just the two elements I wanted to show.
