Autumn at La Fageda d’en Jordà

A few weeks ago I did my yearly autumn visit to La Fageda d’en Jordà. I was quite lucky to find the best colors of the season and a sunny morning because the next day it started raining and did not stop for four days. As usual, I visited the forest early in the morning to avoid the many visitors that are attracted every year to enjoy it, specially in autumn.Do you like this photo?

Summer at La Fageda d’en Jordà

I lost track about the many times that I visited or published photos from La Fageda d’en Jordà. I love this forest and I always find my way back to it. This new photo is from last August, It was the first time that I visited this beech forest during summer and it was like visiting a completely different place. The night before was raining and I got surprised by vibrant greens tones and the dark mud on the ground. Quite a different view from the other visits where the forest was covered by a blanket of red leaves.Do you like this photo? Get Your Print or download it as Free HD Wallpaper.

Walking Between Rocks and Trees

Walking through La Fageda d'en Jordà is always a huge pleasure, and the day I took this photograph was no exception. After same cold days, the sun was shining, the temperature was relatively warm, and the forest was in the most absolute silence that was only broken by the occasional sound of the leaves rocking with the wind, and the song of a bird.

Winter Snowfall

Today is the last day of the year and I wanted to share with you this photograph that I’m sure that could make a good seasonal postcard. I toke it some time ago, but I still could remember the contrast between the coldness in my bones and the calm that I could feel around me. Do you like this photo?

Path Between Trees

Yesterday I was visiting the Garrotxa Volcanic Zone Natural Park, in Catalonia. After some crazy days, with constant political news, I decided that I wanted to use the first day of the new born Catalan Republic to cold down my brain while enjoying nature. I toke a route that passes through the volcano Croscat, and Santa Margarida. I have a lot of photograph to process, meanwhile I wanted to share with you this photo. It’s from my way out of Santa Margarida crater. As soon as I arrived there I got mesmerized for the nice path surrounded by trees, the sun light breaking between their leaves, and the calm and serenity of the place. Do you like this photo?

Wooden Bridge, Riera de Martinet, Aiguafreda (Catalonia)

I took this photo more than a year ago in La Riera de Martinet (Martinet’s Creek) in Catalonia, at that time I didn’t like how the photograph looks and I decided not to publish it. However, this week I started playing with the new Aurora HDR 2018; I truly enjoy it! Who knows, maybe I’m going to change my mind, and I finally start publishing other old photos in the next weeks. I hope you enjoy this one as much as I do!Do you like this photo? Get Your Print or download it as Free HD Wallpaper

Fageda d’en Jordà, Autumn 2016 (Catalonia)

I have visited this amazing beech forest many times in the last years. For me it is so difficult to resist the temptation to walk along the peaceful footpaths, take pictures, relax, and forget daily worries. This is especially true in autumn, and a few days ago I decided to visit La Fageda d’en Jordà one more time. I got very lucky, I was able to enjoy the best colors of the season during a sunny and windless morning. Basically, all I needed to take great photographs of this beautiful place.Do you like this photo? Get Your Print or download it as Free HD Wallpaper

Walking Through La Grevolosa (Sant Pere de Torelló, Catalonia)

This was the first sight I had on my arrival to the Grevolosa forest; the feeling of calm that came to me at the gates of this old-growth forest was overwhelming.

Martinet Creek (Aiguafreda, Catalonia)

I few days ago I was visiting “La Riera de Martinet”. The creek is located in the Aiguafreda limits, a small village in the Barcelona province near the Montseny Natural Park in Catalonia. I knew that It could not be much water, it has been a dry summer; but I decided that it was going to take the risk. At the beginning of my path the creek was dry but when I arrived at the “Gorg de la Sort” (The Pool of Luck) I was able to capture this photograph.Do you like this photo?

Misty Morning (Baronia de Rialb, Catalonia)

It was a cold winter day, the closest mountains were covered with fog and during the morning the sun was only visible for a few moments. It was not the best day for landscape photography but with such weather I had a good opportunity to capture some moody photos of this pine tree forest. Do you like this photo?

Roques Encantades III (Catalonia)

This is a magical forest—always quiet, with huge boulders living in harmony with the beech trees. It’s also a place of many legends; most of them were born during medieval times when the area was shaken by several earthquakes and some of these rocks ended up in to the nearby town of Sant Feliu de Pallerols.

Serra dels Bufadors II (Catalonia)

This is another photo from my last year’s trip to La Serra dels Bufadors, a mountain range located near Santa Maria de Besora in Catalonia. At some point, the mountain cracked and split apart, creating a corridor between the peaks, this photo was taken in the middle of corridor, the walls are tall here and the trees are growing as much as they can to catch the light.Do you like this photo?

A Summer Day in the Forest

A few weeks ago, I was strolling around one of my favorite spots near the Health Sanctuary in the Collsacabra region, when I realized how different a non-perennial forest can look from season to season. In this photo, everything is green, the trees still have all of their leaves, and the ferns on the ground have an intense green color due to a recent drizzle. Do you like this photo?

Unexpected Snowfall

It’s not usual to see snow covering the streets of my town. However, from to time to time, we are blessed with a small snowfall—not so big as to create serious trouble, but big enough to enjoy a white landscape for a day or two. On such rare occasions, I love to take my camera and snap a few pictures. Do you like this photo? Get Your Print or Download It as Free HD Wallpaper

La Serra dels Bufadors (Catalonia)

Recently, I had a fantastic time exploring “La Serra dels Bufadors,” a mountain range located near Santa Maria de Besora between the Osona and Ripolles regions. The views are spectacular high in the mountain range. What is more incredible, however, is the strange inner corridor you can find between the peaks. It appears that, at some point, the mountain cracked and split apart, creating a unique and fragile micro-ecosystem. Do you like this photo? Get Your Print or Download it as a wallpaper

Winter Is Coming (Fageda d’en Jordà, Catalonia)

I have been trying to capture Jordan’s Beachwood in its best fall colors, but it is beginning to seem an impossible task. My first trip was made at the right time of year, but the weather had other plans. After that, I had to travel for a few weeks and when I returned, the leaves had fallen, announcing the arrival of winter. Do you like this photo? Get Your Print.

Riera de Santa Fe (Catalonia)

Some time ago, I visited the Santa Fe Water Reservoir. It’s located inside the Montseny Natural Park, which is a beautiful place to visit year round. Before reaching the reservoir, you have to walk side by side with ‘La Riera de Santa Fe,’ a small stream of water responsible for filling it. The landscape was gorgeous and a stop to take some pictures was a must.Do you like this photo? Get Your Print or Download it as a wallpaper
