Granada, an Andalusian Miracle

This time we made a trip to Granada, the beautiful old town in Andalus, Spain. As during summer time temperatures are quite high – around 40 °C, we choose March to start, as there temperature is still moderate – around 18 °C.

All images were made with my workhorse Olympus OM-D E-M1 and the wonderful M.Zuiko 2.8/7-14mm Pro lens, which gave that special width to all images.

Besides a beautiful old city with so many corners to discover, the world famous Alhambra is the main attraction which – besides its inner beauties – also gives tons of amazing views into the surrounding landscape.

This city is always worth a stay, but now let’s see some pictures …

In case you’d like to comment, it’s appreciated … and maybe, you want to visit my website or my flickr page too.

So long … and thanks for all the fish.
