Sea and Salt

  • Photographer
    Wellington Rodrigues, Germany

Spain has many impressive landscapes and fascinating
destinations, but one of the most amazing natural resorts are the
salty pink lakes in Torrevieja. In this beautiful coastal resort you
can find two beautiful salt lakes: a blue-green one called La Mata
lagoon and the other, of an impressive pink colour, known as
Torrevieja lagoon; both connected to the sea by canals.

In the 19th century, the salt was mainly shipped from the town by
Swedish and Dutch ships. At the time, there was only limited
demand from other regions of Spain, mainly Galicia and to a lesser
extent, Valencia.

Wellington Rodrigues is a director of film, commercials and music videos with a background in photography, and 3D Animation.

He hails from São Paulo, Brazil, but lived in Vancouver and Frankfurt prior to moving to Munich with his wife.

He has since created films/photographs for organisations and brands including EA Sports, Blue Sky Studios, Porsche, Good Weather Forecast, XDubai and Outbreakband.
