This photograph was taken amidst a herd of wild goats that I encountered on the trail to the south summit called La Mola. A billy goat is the protagonist of this picture. He looks at the symbol of Calpe, which rises majestically from the sea. In particular, the vertical cliffs on the south side of the Peñón de Ifach give the rock its distinctive shape. The Peñón de Ifach Natural Park is the smallest nature reserve on mainland Spain, but is also a popular destination for hiking and climbing.
My photographic work is inspired by long hikes on remote mountain trails in the Alicante province in Spain.

The local hiking trails offer wonderful views of the Mediterranean Sea and towards the surrounding mountains.
