* Canary Mountains
Mountain landscape of the Canary Island Gran Canaria in Spain.
I stand here at sunset at about 1800m and look at the landscape of the island lying below me.
In the distance you can see the towering rock / mountain Roque Nublo ( cloud rock), which is a remnant of a once much higher volcano and which is mostly above the clouds.
It is a fantastic evening atmosphere up here.
The clouds lying below me move slowly over the summits of the mountain tops, and unbelievably beautifully and atmospherically the warm light of the low-standing sun touches the tops of the trees and forests.
Still long I stand fascinated up here until the sun has disappeared behind the horizon and the first stars illuminate the sky.
By the way, in the background you can see the island of Tenerife with the mighty Teide volcano, which is the highest elevation in Spain.
