I'm retired and living in North Yorkshire, where I walk as often as I can, write, volunteer, and travel as often as I can.

They look like sculptural grasses… if you half close your eyes and use a bit of imagination. Or even a lot of imagination 🙂 🙂 Happy Saturday!
Actually, I loved this view from the old town. In a more-than-square format, you can see the La Pepa bridge and even more sky-scraping cranes and I find it quite trilling.

Yes, indeed, it certainly improved my perception of a grey Cadiz!

It’s not grey very often, I don’t think! And it was morning mist rather than greyness: it was January after all.

I love how the churches’ cupolas profiles before the building grounds.
An anchor in the past and a prayer for the future.
Lovely shot.

The more I look, the more I see. Many layers in this one, Margaret. Great image!

I like it. I quite like seeing signs of industrial activity from the safety of a scenic old town!

Probably not the most attractive view of Cadiz, but then I haven’t been for 45 years so it may have changed a little 🙂 🙂

Nice juxtapositioning of the old and new.

Cranes, birds or mechanical, just fabulous to look at. Perfect against the bridge and contrasting with the domed church roofs.
