La Fragata Beach Galicia Spain

A long exposure turns the incoming tide into silk, streaking around a dark volcanic rock as it drains back toward the sea. Overhead, heavy clouds break just enough to let the setting sun spill gold and teal across the water — a fleeting moment of drama on an otherwise quiet stretch of Galician coast.

Quick facts
Photographer: Sapiens Verbum
Subject: Long-exposure seascape at sunset, La Fragata Beach
Location: Ferrol, Galicia, Spain
Medium: Photograph
Series: Galicia Seascapes

La Fragata sits near Doniños, Esmelle and San Jorge beaches in Ferrol, a stretch of Galician coastline known for its wide sandy beaches and consistent Atlantic swell. The same conditions that draw surfers, windsurfers and kite surfers to these shores also make for beaches worth simply walking, or, as here, worth waiting on with a tripod for the light to turn.
