π La Geria, Lanzarote
Lanzarote's "La Geria" vineyard with it's vines hunkered down in pits as protection from the island's notorious winds...
I knew of this place from photos I'd seen. Photos of "Instagram influencers" walking through among the vines.
Our first full day was spent visiting Teguise Market. On the way back to Playa Blanca (on the LZ-30), we drove through these vineyards. I was inspired to return the very next morning.
When I arrived, it felt morally wrong to roam a working vineyard for a photo. I had also googled Spanish Law the night before... Trespassing in the UK is a minor civil offence, but in Spain it can carry up to a six month prison sentence. So roadside shots it was! (Later I'll post an image shot from a path.)
I hoped to catch the rising sun painting the volcanos and vineyards in warm light. It wasn't to be. This was my first morning shoot of the holiday... I soon found that weather forecasts were never correct! At least I had a little colour in the sky...
