TITLE: Playa de Vallina

The cliffs along the northern coast of Spain's Atlantic Ocean weave countless stories. They appear different under varying weather conditions and shift with the ocean’s tides. I find peace and harmony in long-exposure photography, where each image captures more than a fleeting moment—it becomes a meditative journey. I believe such photographs can inspire the viewer, inviting them to explore the beauty and uniqueness of the natural world around us. In my work, I experiment with exposures of different lengths, aiming to highlight the uniqueness of the scene and evoke a sense of purity and tranquility.

Photography is one of biggest passions of my life. The photographic process allows me to use my imagination and transform my feelings, moods and ideas into something palpable. With my work, I try to reveal the mystical world of nature, often invisible to the naked human eye.
