In the Shade of the Sierra Nevada

[Martín el Escocés]

Granada, Anadlucia, Spain.

To visit, is to fall under her spell

You fooled me Martin! When I see Sierra Nevada, my mind goes to the mountains here in California.

But what a nice surprise this is, and what a nice city shot this is. I can see where one would fall under her spell.

I too can see the attraction! Beautiful view, I love the old world feel to this!

 

[Tex Schneider]

Beautiful! How was the food?

Cool shot and the clouds add a special touch.

I hoped to do that, Jim! I'm always aware that place names have a different context where you are and it can lead to some fun. Both Sierras have always been there of course - but our's is the oldest! :-D The city is beautiful, particularly in the old quarter below the Alhambra with it's steep hills and winding streets.



Glad you liked it Barry. The old-world look and feel is matched by the culture. Our first night there Fran and I went to the oldest Flamenco Club in the world and enjoyed a wonderful show!

Next time you get over here................

The food was excellent but in a non-sophisticated way

Nice atmospheric shot.

Glad you like it Anne. The clouds were a lot of what attracted me to the particular shot. These beautiful Spanish cities are often seen under a totally plain blue sky and in Andalucia in general clouds are mainly welcome for relief from the sun!

Nice atmospheric shot.

Thanks Ben. Glad you enjoyed it! Granada is a beautiful city, as are most in Andalucia.
