LANDSCAPE/SEASCAPE PHOTOGRAPHY AND ART CONTEST WEEK #155 | Lanzarote | ENG / ESP
During the last family Christmas holidays we went to Lanzarote, a volcanic island in the Canary archipelago. The choice of location was not accidental, warm climate, spectacular scenery and good fish to eat.
In the south of the island there is an agricultural region called La Geria, where basically vineyards and fig trees are grown, with the particularity that in order to protect each tree from the strong wind that sometimes blows through the area, the farmers have made a hole in the ground and a stone wall around it to protect their plantations, a titanic task that has taken many years. As you can see in the picture, this phenomenon extends almost to infinity, making the place a spectacular landscape. All of it in volcanic lava.
The image I present is a panoramic image formed by 8 photographs in vertical format and then joined manually in a specific editing programme, PTGui Pro.

En las últimas vacaciones familiares de Navidad nos fuimos a Lanzarote, una isla volcánica del archipiélago canario. La elección del lugar no fue casual, clima cálido, paisajes espectaculares y buen pescado para comer.
Al sur de la isla hay una comarca agrícola llamada La Geria, en la que básicamente se cultivan viñas e higueras, con la particularidad de que para proteger cada árbol del fuerte viento que a veces azota la zona, los agricultores han hecho un hoyo en el suelo y una pared de piedra alrededor para proteger sus plantaciones, una tarea titánica de muchos años. Como se puede ver en la imagen, este fenómeno se extiende hasta casi el infinito, haciendo del lugar un paisaje espectacular. Todo ello en lava volcánica.
La imagen que presento es una panorámica formada por 8 fotografías en formato vertical y después unidas manualmente en un programa de edición específico, PTGui Pro.
Unless stated otherwise, all the pictures and the words are mine.

This looks like another planet, minus the blue sky :)
Thanks for commenting @fijimermaid
It really is another planet. I believe is the most spectacular transformation of a landscape made by humankind.
