The floating mist of the Sau Valley

Mid-rise mist at dawn, rolling down the hillside and melting away. In this accelerated video in Las Fotos de los Lectores de La Vanguardia you can see this dance of mists, which go down and some go up.

I have captured the images in the Sau Valley, in Les Masies de Roda. Although the reservoir that can be seen in the background is at a very low water level, between the humidity of the water and that of the rains, fog appears at dawn, which in this case has dissipated after a short time.

In this municipality of about 700 inhabitants, four separate population centers can be distinguished: Les Casas Noves, l'Esquerda, Fontanelles and Vicenç.

As its name indicates, Les Masies de Roda, located about 6 km from the capital of the region, Vic, is a territory basically made up of farmhouses, most of them with a long history that gives them even more heritage value.

Among the farmhouses, the Bac stands out, also known as the Bac de Roda, which is one of the oldest paired houses in Osona, documented since the end of the 13th century.
