Close Encounters of the Third Kind / La Palma 2018

            Look at these rocks! It’s a strange but beautiful landscape when you have made it through the jungle and reach the top of la Palma on the way to the Telescopes. You feel like you are on mars or on acid or something. I love it. But it’s also very scary when the only thing you here is the strange sound of rocks and stones rolling down that cliffs - which happens the whole time. Sounds like something is sneaking around while you are there alone in the dark. Dont like that. 

But it didn’t stop me from taking photos and the Adrenalin kept me awake! 
I took the chance to use the lights from a passing car to support the strange mood and landscape and - for me - this worked very well and I love this shot!
