[Spain 2018] Iglesia Parroquial de Santa Maria Church in Barrika, Basque Country, Spain

Usually I plan my photoshoots ahead with attention to every single detail. But even with such thorough planning I often face unexpected situations and create unexpected artworks.

Here is example. My Northern Spain travel was focused on creating new seascape fine art collection and one evening I had a plan to shoot beach in Barrika located not far from Bilbao. There is only single subject to shoot on Barrika beach - fascinating curved rock ridge looking like crest of lying stone dragon. When we arrived to Barrika one hour before sunset we found that my subject is covered completely by water. I somehow miscalculated the tide and my stone dragon was not visible.

We didn't had time to go to other location and I run to the nearby church we passed on the way to the beach and framed this composition just in time to catch great blue hour light.

Enjoy!
