Photographer's Note
Andorra is a great little place. The air is so clean and there are many hiking trails. Most people come here for duty free shopping or to ski. Many of the shops are outdoor clothing or electronic gadgets.
You find everything in close proximity. Here we see mountains, city and farm. The country must be on a slope through the Pyranees because it had warm weather in the South and the Northern part was snow covered with people on the slopes!
The night before I had walked from Andorra la Vella over the snow capped mountain and found myself in Encamp before dawn. It begain raining when I was half way down and could not find any hotels with reception still open when I reached the bottom at about 3am. I was able to manage to get in one though and do checkin and checkout at the same time in the morning (you can read more about this in the Sauntering travelogue).
On this day, I hobbled around because of tired legs. I saw many others hobbling around too because of ski accidents.

There is so much to see, and I can't see it in this photo. I wish I was more professional and could make a good suggestion - maybe a scene like this just needs a wider angle. I'm not sure, but I would like to see more.

Hi Dan
That's nice that you bring here this interesting country. It's a pity the photo is not bigger, but even so I like to see it.
Regards,
Francisco
