Landscape on the island of Tenerife in black and white

One of my fondest memories of the island of Tenerife in the Canary Islands in Spain.
I am standing high up at 2100 metres in the Teide National Park, looking at the sunset over the clouds.
In the background you can see the volcano Pico del Teide, which is the highest elevation in Spain at 3715 metres.
Around me it is pleasantly calm and quiet.
You only hear the wind in the trees and the buzzing of the bees, and smell the scent of the pines and flowers all around you.
Below the clouds is the city of Puerto de la Cruz with its 6 lanes of roads, cars and construction sites.
Up here you don't notice any of that.
I enjoy nature to the full while I slowly set up my tripod and choose the final position for my final picture.
When the sun was just above the clouds, the flowers were particularly beautiful in the backlight.
A great evening high above the clouds on this very special island in the Canary Islands.
