Serge,
54 years ago the Alhambra in Granada looked almost exactly the same. I think the hedges by the pool were smaller then. The amazing ceilings, and bright tiles are all etched in my memory. There was a garden (private?) with benches and highly sculpted trees and hedges - a very shady retreat. Thanks for sharing your visit.

George, excellent capture with the circular fisheye, great effect.
Leighton, great skies.
Back to the old empire as Rafael refers to historic Spain.

Basket of Tomatoes. This basket I love for it's design, but the flaxen/tan color is driving me crazy. Inside the LED kitchen light shifts the balance, and outside the large tulip tree reflecting green light shifts it again. It really is a beautiful color in person.
200mm f2.0 ai 12 image stack
35mm f1.4 ais with back to the tree to block some green light - two more shades of flaxen/tan emerge.
Camden, London. Not my favorite part of the city but a tourist hotspot due to the alternative shops, markets, the bars & clubs as well as the Regent's canal and lock system. The place has a unique feel to it. Grungy and gritty.
I am struggling to get an output that I like from this very busy, high contrast image.
There is a lot of stuff going on but at least I did get the IR focus on the bridge.
Maybe I should have stopped down a bit from my default f/8 for IR.
The 100/2.8 is a great performer and I like it because it is light and very compact.

Another winner Andy. The sun-kissed tops are just the ticket.

James, perhaps these are the sculptured tress you described. Nearby, there is a row of orange trees which may have also been there during your visit.
Excellent colors on the tomatoes, they look very tasty.
Some IR from the fall of 2022 in a park called Pidgeon Creek. Had quite a variety of forests including mature Beech, which are a bit thin due to a blight the last 40-50 years. 5D with the 55mm f3.5 ai
Beautiful pano.
