Ribadesella, Asturias Spain

My best season of taking pictures has always been autumn, but that was when I still lived in the Netherlands. Now a day,s I like winter a bit better. That's because you still have plenty of autumn colors around and the clouds are so pretty. Most of the time in summer, there are hardly any clouds in the sky in the south of Spain. So seeing clouds can still make me happy.

Like this day in the north of Spain, Asturias province. The town of Ribadesella Along the coast line of the Cantabrian sea, you have a magnificent view over the Picos del Europa mountain range and the snowy peaks are visible from far. There is already melting water coming down trough the Sella river and forms these shallow wetlands at the bottom of the mountains.

Subjects like this are a very nice detail in landscape photography. If you can find a nice angle and a good background, this could have been an awesome picture. This day I was to lazy to climb all the way down to get a closer look at the little boat. And it was a bit rainy to, so the grass was wet and slippery.
