ENTRY DESCRIPTION
This image was taken in the Costa Blanca area of Spain, in a little seaside town called Altea. It almost never rains there, and when it does, the streets are deserted, the entire town becomes a virtual ghost town. The image perfectly captures the mood and atmosphere of the town during the peaceful winter season.

AUTHOR
Ragnar B. Varga is an accomplished Norwegian (Hungarian-born) fine art photographer.
He spent several years discovering the world, living in London, Hungary, Spain and even sailing around the globe as a cruise ship photographer before returning to Norway. The energy and character of all these places have profoundly influenced his art.
Varga has a clear vision for his work and a common voice that he uses in his approach. His photographs share an engaged sense of interactions between people and their environments. The images have a wonderful amount of personality, the structures of his scenes energize the eye and capture something that would easily go missed or overlooked. His passion for photography provides an incredible amount of human connection, and it’s clear that he cares deeply about the images that he is making. Describing his work, he says: “My work is a profound contemplation of the world around us. It slows down time and captures a moment of stillness in a chaotic world.”
Ragnar B. currently lives in Bergen, Norway.
