Last Monday, for work reasons, I had to travel from my beloved Asturias to Tenerife, in the Canary Islands. The flight lasted about 3 hours and both on departure and arrival I was taking some photos.

In the departure photos I captured the beautiful clouds that at that moment decorated the skies of the codillera that separates Asturias from the rest of the Iberian Peninsula and that I recently shared in the #lovetheclouds community in the contest organized by

@tobetada.

During the flight, I was working on my laptop until we got the notice that larger electronic devices needed to be picked up. It was then, when with my phone I wanted to photograph the spectacular views of the coast of the island of Tenerife during the landing.

My surprise was that a few minutes later, the trajectory that the plane was following to reach the airport of Los Rodeos, in Tenerife North, allowed me to see the silhouette of the plane's shadow projected on the ground.

As we got closer, the silhouette of the plane became more detailed and larger, and I was even able to capture a silhouette completely projected over some greenhouses, possibly of bananas, which is one of the typical products of the farms of this island.

Shortly after, we landed at the airport, we left the plane, I ate a sandwich and with the rental car I had booked I did not hesitate to take a trip to the Teide volcano that I like to visit when I am on this great island.
