Albatross Soaring Over Catalan Glacial Stream

by Carole Hines

White feathers stretch wide against a flawless azure sky as an albatross glides low over a narrow, icy stream cutting through rocky terrain. The late morning sun reflects sharply off the water's surface, illuminating the pale stones lining the banks. The bird's wings remain perfectly rigid, holding a steady altitude above the rushing current. Below, the stream carves a path through a landscape of grey granite and sparse green vegetation typical of late summer in Catalonia. The perspective looks upward from the water's edge, showing the bird's massive wingspan against the vast, cloudless dome. A shadow from the wingtip touches the frothy white water just before the bird moves forward.
