The early February mornings here in Andalucía can be stunning. With the Viboras lake at Las Casillas against a backdrop of the mountains, sunrises are often beautiful, particularly on misty mornings when there is some cloud cover. The sun lights up the clouds, often with reds and oranges, which are mirrored in the lake.
I just love to pick up my camera and tripod and take the dogs for an early morning walk. This time of year, is so different. Many people don’t realise that the nights can be very cold here in the winter months and frosts are common. Seeing the sum rise over the mountains, the mists and the “smoke on the water” is just stunning.
