As the sun set, the warm evening made it an idillic scene on the Way of Saint James. (Richard McCaig)

Its not been above minus 6C the last few days, and expecting minus 20C tonight. Still life in the freezer was enhanced this morning with the full lunar eclipse, the first on the Winter Solstice since 1638. Sky was clear and the sight was one to behold as the colours changed from the silver of the moon to pink, red then a deep copper. Worth getting up early for!

This pharmacy near the cathedral had been in operation for a long time and had some of the original medicine bottles on display. (Richard McCaig)

The Dusty Track Blog continues to be updated. Leon is a fascinating city in the North of Spain with many interesting shops and streets. I was surprised to find so many old and traditional shops and bars here – I would recommend a visit! I will continue to update the blog at dustytrack.com over the next few weeks. The Camino experience is truly wonderful.

The clouds became a wonderful pink. There were churches in many of the villages along the Way of Saint James. (Richard McCaig)

There has been a bit of interest in this photograph of the Millau Viaduct which spans the Tarn River in the Aveyron department of France. It is quite an incredible structure. It was very misty with cloud rising from the valley when I visited. With enough patience the light changed and made the bridge shine in the cloud.

A few people have purchased this image on RedBubble. Various sizes of canvas and matt print (as well cards and postcards) are available.
