well steve i just had to do this one last time lol neat picture The Alhambra (Arabic: Al-Ħamrā'; literally "the red") is a palace and fortress complex of the Moorish monarchs of Granada, in southern Spain (known as Al-Andalus when the fortress was constructed), occupying a hilly terrace on the south-eastern border of the city of Granada. It was the residence of the Muslim kings of Granada and their court, but is currently a museum exhibiting exquisite Islamic architecture. A Renaissance palace was also inserted by Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor.thank you for sharing

Thanks Beverly and Vicki for your lovely comments. I'm glad you liked this shot. And Vicki, you could never be as far behind in your comments as I am: I'm close to chucking in the towel!

Sorry I'm so slow getting here, Steve. This is a beautiful building and reflecting pond. The starkness of the countryside in the background really puts things in perspective. Vicki
