The Bent Page

Much of the year, in most of Spain, you’ll find a blue sky like no other.

You see it there above the mountains as I’m rolling down this stretch of road on the way to Ronda. The air is dry, the sun warm, the terra firma solid under foot. Sure, you’ll have overcast rainy days, but many more are just like the one above.

There is that blue sky again, this time at dusk over Trujillo. Note the castle looming over the plaza mayor. Taking photos in Spain is easy given that warm light. You average consumer digital camera captures scenes with no worries using the automatic settings.
