Beware of the fog
On the road - Vall d'Aran
The fog is almost always present in the mornings at high-altitud mountains, and you have to be really careful because you never know what you're going to find on the road.
Riding on my motorcycle on the way to see a waterfall, I had to stop for a while to let the fog clear up, so I took the chance to snap this picture.

Team work
Piña - Castellers de Vilafranca
In Catalonia, "Fer castells" it's an old tradition where strengh, balance and team work go hand to hand to rise a human tower towards the sky.
Most of the pictures that you can find about it are of the finished tower, but what you can see here is probably the most important step of the process. It's called "pinya" and its' the base of the "castell". Usually, the base is formed with not only the castellers but also with the help of volunteers from people watching them. The more people helping to form the "pinya", stronger it will be and, therefore, safer.
