Faro de Maspalomas (Maspalomas lighthouse)

Let your imagination soar towards Maspalomas

Your imagination mirrors these seagulls, always ready to soar off on the slightest breeze.

Their flight expresses their lust for life against the backdrop of the sky and in this case also highlighting the silhouette of the Maspalomas Lighthouse, in the south of Gran Canaria. This picture portrays a fleeting instant in more than a century of lights, stretching back to that distant day in 1890 when the light projected its first beam.

Las Canteras: a fish’s-eye view

I like to rest under the shelter of the Barra de Las Canteras. This natural reef slows the momentum of the Atlantic and provides quiet nights for fish like me. At dawn, when the sun's rays colour the surface shades of pink and purple, I begin to move around the bay and peck at algae with my parrot's beak. At this hour, the early birds of the human variety also begin to make their way into the sea, splashing and swimming as if they were fish themselves.
