Drought in the Santomera Reservoir, Murcia
When the afternoon fades, when the sun seeks its refuge on the horizon, at the beginning of Spring, the golden hour in the Santomera reservoir, a municipality in Murcia, gives us the full range of colors that we can appreciate. This reservoir was built in order to avoid the large floods of water that frequently devastated a large part of the Segura river. A brake on the unbridled torrential rains characteristic of the entire region.
But during the all too common dry spells in the region, the landscape is completely different. The thirsty earth cracks and cries out to the sky for the prodigious rain while some poor and rickety riverbed furrows its wrinkles of mud towards infinity looking for an impossible sea.
Walking through this scenario is not without risks; It will suffice to step on a mosaic tile with more humidity than expected under the dryness of the skin to have an unpleasant setback.
