Photographer’s Note

Cape Finisterre (Spanish: Cabo Finisterre; Galician: Cabo Fisterra) is a rock-bound peninsula in the uttermost west of Galicia, Spain.

Cape Finisterre is the westernmost point of Spain, though not of Continental Europe (that honour belongs to Cabo da Roca in Portugal), and its name, like that of Finistère in France, derives from Finisterrae in Latin which literally means "Land's End".

Cape Finisterre has a notable lighthouse on it and nearby is the seaside town of Fisterra.
