In Las Fotos de los Lectores de La Vanguardia we can see this snapshot that captures the calm moment of a walk in Arenys de Mar, with the light of the candelabra in the sky and the backlight on the silhouettes of the couple and the dog that is opening the way.

The candilazo is a meteorological phenomenon in which the clouds in the sky show a wide palette of colors that goes from pink to the most intense orange.

As part of the phenomenon of scattering of sunlight, in the morning and afternoon hours, when the sun is closest to the horizon, the light that reaches Earth is soft tones between red and orange.

In a certain way, when this light passes through the clouds, it illuminates them and it could be said that it colors them with those hues.

The candilazo is also known as arrebol, which is the red color that is seen in the clouds illuminated by the sun's rays, especially at dawn and at sunset.

Arenys de Mar is located at the end of the stream that connects it with the interior landscape passing through Arenys de Munt. It is also strategically located near the Montseny massif and the Corredor-Montnegre Natural Park.
