Time-exposure photography blurs the rippling surface of Andorra’s Valira del Nord, a fast-flowing river that rises high in the eastern Pyrenees and eventually joins the Gran Valira, the Principality’s largest watercourse. View of the riverbed beside the Pont d’Ordino or Pont de l’Estarell, a 15th century humpback bridge rebuilt in 1980 just north of Llorts in the Ordino Valley.


Llorts, Ordino Valley, Andorra: a long camera exposure blurs a Pyrenean mountain river as it ripples over rocks and pebbles below the Pont de l’Estarell or Pont d’Ordino, a 15th century, single-arch humpback bridge moved here in 1980, stone by stone, to be rebuilt in a new location. The bridge spans the Valira del Nord, which rises high in the Eastern Pyrenees and is a tributary of Andorra’s main river, the Gran Valira.
