Nocturna del pantano de Sau sin agua. (Osona - Cataluña).
Nocturnal of the Sau swamp without water. (Osona - Catalonia)

Fotografía dedicada a título póstumo a mi querida amiga Nana de Granada, por que el pasado 14 de Marzo nos dejó de forma inesperada.
Mi querida Nana, todos tenemos personas conocidas, pero amigas, tenemos muy pocas. Tu eras muy especial por tu forma de ser, de hablar de fotografiar, nunca tendré una amiga como tu. Nana ;-)) Nota: Para ver las fotos de Nana, pulsar el enlace!!
Descansa en paz querida... te dedico esta foto por que en el firmamento ya hay una nueva estrella y esta eres tu... la que más brilla entre todas.

Historia de la fotografía:
Fotografía realizada con motivo de la sequía que padece Catalunya, por que esta iglesia siempre ha estado sumergida bajo las aguas del pantan de Sau y tenia curiosidad para verla y fotografiarla. (Para tener mayor información sobre el lugar, ver mi reciente foto, Perspectiva en el Pantano de Sau).

Datos técnicos:
Cámara : Nikon D800
Objetivo: Nikon 28 m/m.
Diafragma: f/2,8 Para acortar el tiempo de exposición.
Enfoque: Sobre piedras e Iglesia por método hiperfocal.
Exposición: 20 segundos
ISO: 2000
Trípode: Si
Nocturna, con luz de luna y potentes focos led.
Realicé varios disparos con distintos parámetros, para localizar el mejor. Asimismo una gran edición en luces y contrastes.
Espero que os guste. Antoni Gallart.

Photograph dedicated posthumously to my dear friend Nana from Granada, because on March 14 she left us unexpectedly.
My dear Nana, we all have known people, but friends, we have very few. You were very special because of your way of being, of talking about photographing, I will never have a friend like you. Nana ;-)) Note: To see Nana's photos, click the link!!
Rest in peace dear... I dedicate this photo to you because there is already a new star in the firmament and this is you... the one that shines the brightest among all.

History of photography:
Photograph taken on the occasion of the drought in Catalonia, because this church has always been submerged under the waters of the Sau reservoir and I was curious to see it and photograph it. (For more information about the place, see my recent photo, Sau Swamp Perspective).

Technical data:
Camera: Nikon D800
Objective: Nikon 28 m/m.
Aperture: f/2.8 To shorten the exposure time.
Focus: On stones and Church by hyperfocal method.
Exposure: 20 seconds
ISO:2000
tripod: yes
Night, with moonlight and powerful led spotlights.
I made several shots with different parameters, to find the best one. Also a great edition in lights and contrasts.
I hope you like it. Antoni Gallart.

…there is never just one part of life or one certain kind of activity in which the faithful need to reflect the face of God; they should do so in the whole of their activities, and first of all with respect to the hidden region of the heart. They are called to a spirit of true fraternity (Matt 5:21-26); interior purity (5:27f.); forgiveness and unconditional love (5:38-48); almsgiving, prayer, and fasting “in secret” (6:1-18)… and finally, prayer is not linked to a place; it fits into the whole of life.

From the moment I reached out to hold, I felt a sound
And what touches our soul slowly moves as touch rebounds
And to know that tempo will continue, lost in trance of dances
As rhythm takes another turn
As is my want, I only reach to look in your eyes
