Lake Banyoles has been for me an unending learning experience about light. Perhaps the place I like most in the world. Located in the Pla de l’Estany zone, is a pond fed by groundwater from the High Garrotxa region, northwest from this point.
Declared picturesque landscape in 1951 it is an exceptionally beautiful place to walk around, have a boat journey and enjoy the fishermen's houses from the nineteenth century or simply to take some pictures on its banks.
As well as the beauty of the countryside, it has great ecological interest as many protected species meet there. Sports fishing, canoeing and triathlon take place at Banyoles Lake which was an Olympic site during the Barcelona Games in 1992, in a quite magnificent setting.
Also Banyoles and its associated lacustrine basin are regarded as the largest karst stretch on the Iberian Peninsula, and make up an environmental system of enormous value.
I love sharing this little paradise through the language of photography. It is a personal essay on landscape variability.
