SORGINETXE | HOUSE OF THE WITCHES

in #hive-1949132 years ago

Hello to all photography lovers, today I bring you a bit of history accompanied by images.

Let's just say I've been digging through my old RAW files and came across some photos I took back in 2013 but hadn't yet edited, let alone shared.

The dolmen of Sorginetxe is a megalithic monument, which is located in the province of Alava / Basque Country / Spain.

Before I will tell you that the name Sorginetxe is a Basque word that means house of witches.

I do not quite understand why it is called this way, since this type of constructions were funerary monuments used 2500 years before Christ. I think that at that time nothing was known about witchcraft.

I remember it was very windy that day, which made it a bit difficult to take slow shutter speed photos, but we still managed to get something interesting.

I wonder how those people were able to build these things with just basic tools, I find it amazing, I don't think I could do it myself....

We are all afraid of time,
how it advances and how things disappear,
but that's why we are photographers,
we are conservationists by nature,
we take pictures to stop time and record moments in eternity...

The truth is that just by seeing the image that place transmits a very interesting energy to me, in addition, the sunset that can be seen in the background helps the whole scene to look magnificent.

Thank you very much! Have a great day...
