Top priority

Calella, Catalunya (Spain). I was on top of the Torretes hill for a sunrise session, absolutely alone - the very few people I had bumped into while walking along the quiet streets of Calella towards the hills were not early-risers but rather (half-drunken) late-stayers :-).
At some point I heard the faint noise of an approaching car winding up a gravel road - it is a distinctive noise, you know, growing and decreasing with the curves of the road. So I discovered that on the opposite side of the hill there was a dirt road leading almost to the towers.
The driver was a middle-aged tall, fair-haired man - a German, I suppose. Some silent greetings, not to disturb the peace of the place. He was there, just like me, to capture the magic of sunrise from that vantage point. He brought out his cell phone and took some shots ( I could hear the "click" at every shot, amplified by silence). Then he made himself comfortable leaning against the wooden structure of the observation point and, forgetting completely the growing fires of the sunrise and the glittering, rippled surface of the sea ... he begun chatting on his phone :-)) So I captured the scene to upload it as a memento: every moment in our life has its top priorities - let everyone determine her own :-)!
