The Story
I was captivated by the sheer drama unfolding in the sky above the Columbus Monument in Barcelona. The clouds were moving so fast, a swirling mix of deep greys and brilliant golds, as if a storm was brewing just offshore.
The monument itself, with Columbus pointing towards the sea, felt like a sentinel watching over the city. The late afternoon light, breaking through the clouds, illuminated the bronze statue and the intricate details of the column, creating a truly awe-inspiring scene.
