Timelapse over Spain and Europe but under the clouds. Many aircraft contrails over Spain. This timelapse shows how difficult it can be to take specific pictures of cities or areas on Earth. Even when we have the time not working on experiments our target will often be hidden by clouds!

Beaucoup de trafic au-dessus de la péninsule ibérique: les traînées de condensation rayent le ciel… Le reste de l’Europe est noyée dans une mer de nuages : pour prendre de belles photos de l’espace, ce ne sont pas les cibles qui manquent, mais les conditions : météo et temps de travail !

Spain is full of surprises! As we flew over, I noticed these distinct landscapes that are rich in colour and seemingly made up of mosaics. Finest spring art!

En amont de l’estuaire du Guadalquivir, les grandes zones de marais ont été grignotés pour laisser leur place à des formes plus géométriques
