Photographer’s Note
Well, another view of Miño river, this time from the opposite side.
As you can see the San Martin tower, our miniaturesque skyscraper, is clear on top of the, on the other hand, rather common buildings.
Sparkland's skyline, as I have entitled the photo, is in origin a reference to the folk name of the city, 'Terra da Chispa' in its galician version.
There are thus a lot of contrasts encircled in this shot, being the finishing touch that lost and lonely fisherman - the tower's spirit - whose patience and willpower must be bombproof.
Saludos,
Cristóbal

Hola Cristobal, bienvenido a TE
Estupenda foto del Miño con el fondo la ciudad de Ourense y ese pescador para añadir dinamismo.
Buen color y definición.
Saludos

Hello Cristobal,
I like the idea of the fisherman and the little touch of fine humour in your comment. Good job!
Have a good evening.
