I captured this photograph for La Vanguardia Readers' Photos at the top of Puigmal, with the sun shining and the clouds rising up the mountain.
El Puigmal, in Alta Cerdanya, is the second highest mountain in the province of Girona, with 2914 meters, and is located on the border between Spain and France.
Located between the municipalities of Queralbs (Ripollès) and Err (Alta Cerdanya, Eastern Pyrenees), the Puigmal is the highest of the peaks that make up the so-called Gran Olla that surrounds the Vall de Núria.
It is a wide and rounded top. And its ascent is easy if the weather conditions are not very adverse. At its summit there is a forged iron cross and a plaque with verses by Jacint Verdaguer.
On days like this, when the clouds rise up the mountain and join those in a higher position in the sky it seems as if they envelope us and we can really touch them with our hands.
