Mount Teide Sunset

[Jay Gould]

Mount Teide, Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain, Sunset

Amazing roads in the Canaries; exceptionally narrow and winding. At places you have to wait so another car can get around the hairpin turns; sucks when the busses come along.

Here, you drive up and up and up and you find yourself in the thick clouds with terrible visibility. Then you are through the clouds and into a vast playground above the clouds.

I was able to grab this from the side of the road as I was heading down; it was freezing cold!

Hi Jay

Is this the same image you posted a few months ago?? Its still a beautiful sky, and I do prefer this crop over the last. I see a very faint sharpening Halo over the mountain LHS..

Oops!

I will check and if so - sorry about that!

Can't delete as we have very little control over the system.

Yes, it is the same; however, this is the cropped version. I play on The LightBox in G+ - fantastic forum for learning about your images - and the crop came out of the discussion in TLB.

I remember this and I remember suggesting the crop - this works better Jay!
