Pekka, Spain: Third week


My third week got off to a good start with a trip to Gibraltar. A place I´ve always wanted to visit. Though my time there was very short, it was enough to get some pictures and a feel of life in there. The next day was spent on a Harley Davidson, riding along the Costa del Sol. Beautiful scenery and good roads. Later on the week a had photo assignments for the next paper, mostly interview pictures. Also it was time to manage the image bank and edit some of the previously taken pictures for future use.

As this fall has been one of the warmest in twenty years time in Fuengirola, my time here has felt like the middle of Finnish summer. This week temperatures have been decreasing and we even had a bit of rain one day. So fall is actually coming even to the sunny Costa del Sol. Tomorrow I´ll get a rental car and make a road trip west, to Jerez, Cadiz and the most southern point in Spain, Tarifa. Looking very much forward to capturing the buildings, sceneries and people of these old towns.

This weeks images are from my Gibraltar trip and of course my work for the newspaper.
