I love these village "fuentes" you find in the villages of the Alpujarra in rural Spain. Built in times long gone by. You just can't beat the sound of running water, especially in these difficult time...

The quiet and quaint little village of Ferreirola in the Alpujarras, this morning, as the initial rays of the sun arrive. Just stunning!

5am and the moon was shining brightly. Just had to get out of bed, grab my wife's camera/lens and take a quick handheld shot.

Took a punt on the €75 TTArtisans 25mm f2 APS-C lens. (37.5mm full frame equivalent). Very cheap and with some obvious weaknesses, especially corner sharpness at f2, but in general for the price paid...

Relaxing and enjoying lunch on the summit of Chullo 2612m today. We climbed this from the Puerto de la Ragua, traversing the peak from north to south. In the distance there is still snow on the summit...

@backpackandsnorkel the closest you will come to an Antarctic experience without going there.

Hiking the "Sendero de Pavilla" above the Andalucian town of Nigüelas. A short, but high quality route, on aerial walkways above the valley and alongside irrigation channels

"Acequias" flowing freely this morning. Don't think it will be long before they start to dry up though. Love the way the light has created small rainbows to the left of the falls.

@ghose Thank you. Ive also heard good reports about Castopod. I tried Peertube a few years ago, and it worked well, but have since got into photography rather than video making. Will check out Bookwyr...

Back to Motril to pick up some new mountain sunglasses I had ordered as I sat on the last ones! Still, it's not a chore when you pass such lovely city scenes

Been on a city trip today. I like Motril. Laid back, friendly, great tapas bars and some beautiful walks and sights, such as Las Palmeras, Santuario Nuestra Señora de la Cabeza and Parque de los Puebl...
