Stone monastery

The river Stone and his tributaries, the Table and the Ortiz, form a natural unit that extends between Castile the Spot and Aragon, for the ancient dominion of Molina and the Community of Calatayud. The points most known about the course of the river are the spas of Jaraba and the Stone monastery.

The enclosure of the Monastery shuts a park up where the river splits into three arms, with big number of cascades, emphasizing the beautiful and spectacular jump of the ' Tail of the Horse ', with a height of 90 meters, and that has given place to an impressive cave. In the low part of the park there exist fluvial, flowing patios and small lakes. There is also a fish farm. The chapel of Our Lady of the Half note, in the high zone of the Monastery, is a magnificent point of observation of the park, although one must gain access with great precaution.

The whole course of the Stone is rich in subaquatic flora and the margins are provided with vegetation. The rivers Ortiz and Table úne to the Stone in the glass of the marsh of The Tranquera, which hillsides are a green forest mass of repopulated pine. Good part of the natural vegetation of the zone, like some olmeras and poplar groves, it has disappeared, although important formations of carrascal still preserve the surrounding mounts. The wide covered moorlands of rosemary, thyme and gorse, the fields of cereal, almond trees and vines, complete the scenery.

The river Stone is much truchero, although also we find numerous cangregos and barbels. In the Ravines of Calmarza he inhabits one of the biggest concentrations of tawny vultures of the Iberian peninsula and also there is otters, unequivocal symptom of the purity of the waters of the rivers Stone, Table and Ortiz.

This is one of many cascades that it is possible to see in the trip for the park Capricious one, that together with The Tail of Horse are the most emblematic of the place.

Hola Ros,

A well balanced & framed composition of the majesty of the waterfall using the trunk of the tree & the look out terrace & fence. Great depth and atmosphere ... almost tropical.

Saludos,
Latiff.

This illustrates how nature is wonderful if we take care of it. I really like all the green along the rock cliff and also the water movement created by the relatively low speed. Well done.

The falls are well placed in this scene and it's nice to see the water captured at a higher speed as not every waterfall lends itself to that slow ethereal look. Good colour in the vegetation.
Well done Ros.

Wouahou!
Here is of what I would like to make a success at least once..
A magnificent waterfall, which takes speeds of mist with certain places.
That feels the coolness, and the smell of the undergrowth
I like this!
Karine

Hola Ros,
vivid capture of the falls from a very nice POV. The composition including the tree and the fence is good and you managed that difficult light very well.

Hi, my friend!
It is very oryginal view with interesting composition. I like your nice warm colours and good light. Your scenery is very nice. Well done.
Marek

Ros,
that is truely beautiful!!! I especially like that fact that you tried to use a high sutter speed to freeze the water movement versus the slow shutter with the silky effect.

Hola Ros!

Un placer saludarte de nuevo, y disfrutar de tu trabajo!
Me encanta este lugar, al que todavía no he podido ir y eso que lo tengo relativamente cerca!
Has encarado la imagen de una forma muy atractiva, tecnicamente no tiene ni un solo pero, con ese angulo relativamente abierto para apreciar la cascada desde cierta distancia, y una nitidez de quitarse el sombrero!

Un saludo, y buen inicio de semana!

Hi Ros,
Spectacular imagery here with the waterfall providing the dynamism. I like the fence detail to divide the frame. The tree on the left nicely balances and anchors the scene. Very fine work, Ros. Cheers.

Olá Ros!
Local magnífico! A composição ficou óptima mostrando a cascata e a vegetação em volta. Gosto desta cerca de madeira em primeiro plano. Dá uma boa ideia do local. A luz também ficou muito boa.

Hi Ros,

Great control of this wide range of light (especially given the camera you had) .. tremendous greens .. great mood .. beautiful depth created by the fence, the near framing tree, and the bowl of the falls ... wonderfully inviting place .. well done and beautiful image.

take care,

John
