South of the Island

The most southern town here is Fuencaliente and this is where I have chosen to eat before heading for my photo location. It's around half an hour from the apartment. The problem is that it's Monday and Google doesn't say the restaurants are closed here on Mondays. Oh dear ! 😥 A supermarket is therefore my restaurant so I can't say that healthy eating is the order of tonight. Crisps, cheese slices, a cereal bar and a Kitkat with apple juice as a chaser. 🤷🏼

The light was rapidly fading so I headed down towards the lighthouse, not quite at the most southerly point, but almost. My first photo of the night was not to be there however, because I wanted to get a photo of the Milky Way with a volcanic cone as a foreground. Hopefully what I captured will work, with the last photo here a bit of a preview.

The main subject for the night is the lighthouse with the main photo perhaps showing why. I had a great time here and that photograph, when I've processed it properly, will undoubtedly be a favourite. It's ideal for the preview photo of this trip, even as it is, so I've already made it just that, as you can see.

Once again it was a very late return with me feeling very tired as I fell into bed. Or maybe it was the lack of food today - I'm not sure what I've eaten would keep a mouse alive. Squeak!Read more
