catedrales y cigüeñas

Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops at all
– Emily Dickinson


Taking advantage of some mid February sunshine I took a walk yesterday from the centre of Salamanca along the banks of the Tormes river to the Isla del Soto, these images are from the start of that walk and feature some of the beautiful architecture of Salamanca, the golden stone and the cigüeñas that seem to make every rooftop their own. More images from the banks of the river to follow…

imposing…

hidden…


*All images made with Nikon D850 and AF-S Nikkor 70-200mm 1:2.8E FL ED VR lens, and some glorious February sunshine!*
