April 09 Huelva ’s Rio Tinto, Andalucia, Spain. Precious photographic moments and fine art prints
The terracotta project continues and Michelle has found that once she started looking, she could see terracotta everywhere. She was particularly mesmerized by the rich red tones and superb ruby like hues found in the Rio Tinto. She reports, “It’s a huge kick to a photographer to stumble on something like this. I was returning from the golf course shoot and crossed the River Tinto, fascinated by its colours. I parked and found a route down to the river banks. The Rio Tinto is a fascinating red wine river where one colour portrays itself in hundreds of shades. I thought of the terracotta project and couldn’t resist capturing it on camera. Moments when nature evolves before your very eyes, humbly giving us more and more colours and subjects are indeed privileged. These are moments when time doesn’t exist willingly captivated by nature’s spell.
