Great shot. The timing too... ❤️.

armandsarlangue.bsky.social•4 days ago

Thank you 😊🙏. I’m glad I got a good one here, cause I just stopped for one sunset.

canarytis.bsky.social•4 days ago

Fantastic! I climbed it like 20 years ago 😊

armandsarlangue.bsky.social•4 days ago

So cool 😍! How was it? The climb I mean

canarytis.bsky.social•4 days ago

Almost died. We were not really prepared, we were actually speleologist cartographing caves in Picos de Europa and went climbing without much of stuff (caving gear is different), but hey, that was fun and we were determined to survive. Met some Spanish cavers afterwards and partied hard 😁

armandsarlangue.bsky.social•4 days ago

😂 ha ha crazy story 🔥🔥

I love the beautiful soft tones of this shot Armand. Very nice.

armandsarlangue.bsky.social•4 days ago

Thank you Trevor. I took completely different post prod approach with this image.

trevormwilson.bsky.social•4 days ago

It works really well I think. Sometimes it's better not to be too crispy and saturated.

petersealy.bsky.social•4 days ago

Another fantastic shot!

Thanks so much 🙂, love chasing light ☺️

gabbydp.bsky.social•4 days ago

It’s almost like the clouds are adding movement to this…..this is a gorgeous moment and we are all lucky you captured it and shared!!!

armandsarlangue.bsky.social•4 days ago

Thats something I love with shooting longlens, it breaks the scale proportions due to compression and often makes clouds looks even bigger. Thank you 😊

gabbydp.bsky.social•4 days ago

Photographer talk is way over my head😂 you guys and gals are artists and I enjoy every bit of it!!!

armandsarlangue.bsky.social•4 days ago

😂😂 ha ha sorry 😅

gabbydp.bsky.social•4 days ago

No need for that!! Now I’m just interested in looking up longlens and compression 🤪🤣

james-rogers445.bsky.social•3 days ago

Wow, that is stunning, Armand! 😍😍 The telephoto really brings out the drama! 😊

armandsarlangue.bsky.social•4 days ago

Thank you Christoph 🙏😊. Yeah, for mountain portraits I think long lens is unmatched 😍

beautysurroundsyou.com•4 days ago

I am glad you agree! 😁

i-am-spartachris.bsky.social•4 days ago

SPECTACULAR shot Lord Armand, how did thou get that??? 😄 Terrific view, amazing scape. MONSTROUS!!!!

armandsarlangue.bsky.social•4 days ago

Long lens really helps compressing the scene, it works well with such mountain portraits 😊. Thank you man 🙏

davidfimages.bsky.social•4 days ago

Beautiful shot Armand. I climbed that mountain when I was younger and remember there is a little Madonna statue on the summit. The Picos de Europa will always be a favourite place for me. Thanks for sharing your pic and triggering some wonderful memories ☺️

armandsarlangue.bsky.social•4 days ago

Oh amazing! I heard it was quite a place for climbers 😍

davidfimages.bsky.social•4 days ago

I only wish we had the camera kit we have now. I only had a little Olympus Trip camera and was limited to using just one roll of Fuji Velvia film per week. 😆 How things change

pamelaapeters.bsky.social•4 days ago

Stunning capture!

Thank you Kort 😊🙏

mamady.bsky.social•4 days ago

Are you on the Spanish tourism board, Armand!? I’d not heard of a lot of the places you’ve beautifully captured from Spain.

armandsarlangue.bsky.social•4 days ago

Not realky. We just love roadtripping in Spain with my wife, so I have big portfolio from there and I did many locations. I offer private photo tours in Spain , but someday I’d like to do a group tour there.

mamady.bsky.social•4 days ago

Lovely. You’ve provided some great ideas for future trips.

Magnificent ♥️♥️♥️

tom-wild56.bsky.social•4 days ago

It is absolutely special!
2,8? 300mm. 💪🏻😎💯💯💯😇🙃

armandsarlangue.bsky.social•4 days ago

Nope, it was 200-500 Nikon. I think it was 5.6 lens. I don’t have it anymore. No I try to find compromises between gear size and focal range so I can’t use this type of lens for what I do. Too much to carry. Before I had range 14 to 200 all in 2.8 + the 200-500, but I changed to mostly f4 lenses

tom-wild56.bsky.social•4 days ago

Thank you for your explanation.
The weight of the equipment is a constant issue. I use a Canon 2.8/300mm on a lightweight OMD and it doesn't make the lens any lighter. 🤭

armandsarlangue.bsky.social•4 days ago

😆😆

nelricardo.bsky.social•4 days ago

The name is Pico Uriellu.

armandsarlangue.bsky.social•4 days ago

Yes, this is the name in Asturian, official Spanish name is Naranjo de Bulnes 😊.

nelricardo.bsky.social•4 days ago

Only Picu Uriellu, Naranjo de Bulnes is a name put it for a german. It's a artificial name.

armandsarlangue.bsky.social•4 days ago

I was curious so I looked on Spanish IGN map and they put both names 😆. Really super interesting. Maybe the name Naranjo de Bulnes spreaded out so much that they had to add it on the map. Curious about the story behind this. I need to dig in

armandsarlangue.bsky.social•4 days ago

That’s interesting, never heard that story from my local friends. I didn’t knew. Well, seems they adopted the name since 😆, we see more signs there referring to Bulnes than Uriellu there. But it’s similar for many mountains around the world. In French the Matterhorn is called “Cervin”.
