This image is looking up at balconies of Wardian London, one of two similar towers in Canary Wharf, East London, using intentional camera movement. The architects are Glenn Howells.

I like to think this photo has the feel of a scientific abstract image taken by the great photographer Berenice Abbott (1898 to 1991).

Valle de Estós, La Ribagorza, Huesca, Aragón, España.

El valle de Estós (en aragonés benasqués Vall d'Estós o Ball d'Estós) es un valle pirenaico situado en la comarca aragonesa de La Ribagorza.

Se ubica en la zona noroccidental del valle de Benasque (noreste de la provincia de Huesca) y dentro del parque natural Posets-Maladeta. Al norte de este valle, que es de origen glaciar, está el macizo del Perdiguero (3.221 m), y al sur el macizo del Posets (3.375 m). Este valle, orientado de oeste a este, tiene una longitud aproximada de 12 km y en el fondo de él transcurren las aguas del río Estós, afluente del río Ésera. Clarabides, Gías, Oô, son picos que también superan los 3.000 m y hacen frontera con Francia. La altitud del valle oscila entre los 1.400 m y los 3.375 m.

Desde el año 1994 forma parte del parque natural de Posets-Maladeta por sus importantes valores ecológicos. El paisaje predominante es el de la alta montaña pirenaica con buena representación de los pisos climáticos alpino, subalpino y montano. La flora predominante son los pastizales de montaña y los bosques, de coníferas (pino negro y abeto), de caducifolios (haya, álamo temblón, abedul, sauce, arce y avellano) y como principales arbustos el boj, enebro y rododendro. También se encuentran algunos endemismos pirenaicos. En cuanto a la fauna, encontramos a todos los animales presentes en los ecosistemasde la alta montaña pirenaica destacando una importante población de sarrios y corzos y como aves más representativas el urogallo, la perdiz nival y el quebrantahuesos.

El río Estós, al que afluyen múltiples barrancos y torrentes procedentes de los numerosos ibones (lagos de origen glaciar), de las nieves perpetuas y de algunos de los glaciares más meridionales de Europa, recorre el fondo del valle.

El valle tiene un gran atractivo turístico para los amantes de las excursiones de montaña, de la escalada, el esquí de montaña y el alpinismo. También se practica la pesca de la trucha y la caza mayor (sarrios, corzos y jabalíes). En la época veraniega sus laderas son lugar de pasto de un gran rebaño de vacas.

El acceso al valle se realiza preferentemente a pie a través de una red de senderos bien señalizados, aunque hay una pista forestal restringida al tránsito de vehículos autorizados. A lo largo del camino encontramos numerosas cabañas de pastores y un refugio de montaña guardado (1.895 m) gestionado por un guarda de la Federación Aragonesa de Montaña.

The Estós Valley (in Benasquese Aragonese, Vall d'Estós or Ball d'Estós) is a Pyrenean valley located in the Aragonese region of La Ribagorza.

It lies in the northwestern part of the Benasque Valley (northeast of the province of Huesca) and within the Posets-Maladeta Natural Park. To the north of this valley, which is of glacial origin, is the Perdiguero massif (3,221 m), and to the south, the Posets massif (3,375 m). This valley, oriented from west to east, is approximately 12 km long, and the Estós River, a tributary of the Ésera River, flows through its bottom. Clarabides, Gías, and Oô are peaks that also exceed 3,000 m and form the border with France. The valley's altitude ranges from 1,400 m to 3,375 m.

Since 1994, it has been part of the Posets-Maladeta Natural Park due to its significant ecological value. The predominant landscape is that of the high Pyrenees, with a good representation of the alpine, subalpine, and montane climate zones. The predominant flora consists of mountain pastures and forests, including conifers (black pine and fir), deciduous trees (beech, aspen, birch, willow, maple, and hazel), and, as main shrubs, boxwood, juniper, and rhododendron. Several Pyrenean endemic species are also found. As for the fauna, all the animals present in the high Pyrenean mountain ecosystems are found here, with a significant population of Pyrenean chamois and roe deer, and the most representative birds being the capercaillie, the ptarmigan, and the bearded vulture.

The Estós River, fed by numerous ravines and streams originating from the many glacial lakes (ibones), the permanent snowfields, and some of the southernmost glaciers in Europe, flows through the valley floor.

The valley is a popular tourist destination for mountain hikers, climbers, ski mountaineers, and alpinists. Trout fishing and big game hunting (chamois, roe deer, and wild boar) are also popular. In the summer, its slopes serve as grazing land for a large herd of cattle.

Access to the valley is primarily on foot via a network of well-marked trails, although there is a forest track restricted to authorized vehicles. Along the way, you'll find numerous shepherd's huts and a staffed mountain refuge (1,895 m) managed by a warden from the Aragonese Mountain Federation.

Foggy winter morning.

Unfortunately I have very little time for myself to make photographs (too busy with camera repair jobs), but I took an hour to wander the farm a few days ago on a particularly foggy morning, just as the sun was breaking through.

Sometimes this Astrum films works well, and other times its not great. This is one of those "not great" times. I suspect it doesn't work well developed in FA-1027, so I will have another go with home made D-76.
