Storks inhabit the spring landscape delimited by fruit trees, rapeseed and poppies in Tarròs, in the municipality of Tornabous, in the Urgell region, as can be seen in this extensive photographic report in Las Fotos de los Lectores de The vanguard.
They occupy the most important patrimonial element of the town, the parish church of Santa Cecilia, from the 16th century, in Gothic styles but with Romanesque influences. And they are also installed in the field.
Or rather, in the fields, where agriculture makes its way hand in hand with human beings, but where wild nature is also shown in all its splendor, especially with the red poppies.
And, in times of drought, water is gold. It is shown in a minimalist way, drop by drop, in the spring buds. The image remains of it, the memory, the promise of the long-awaited rain.
The best moments of the day to capture the light and color of the Urgell fields might seem to be sunrise and sunset, but the sun is capricious and shines throughout the day, as if you didn’t want to miss any detail of this photographic spring. in this Catalan region.
