the sun-drenched barrio in alicante
my sister is living in alicante, spain, which is where we started our adventure.
there's an area of the city called the barrio. it's below a castle (a castle high on a hill) and is full of flowers and plazas and doors and windows that are surrounded by colors and patterns.
i took this picture as we hiked down from the castle. it is a little over-exposed, but when i looked at it, it reminded me of how it felt to be there in the warm and bright sunshine.
gorgeous!
i actually thought this was a painting when i first saw it, before reading your description!
the overexposure then is perfect!
fun!…
one more exclamation point…!
I thought you over-exposed it on purpose. Great effect
Love it! We spent 2 weeks on the Costa del Sol back in 1990…. so lovely, brings back memories! So glad you got this chance to go there!!
Imagaine…living in Alicante…*swoon*… ;o) LOVE the bright light, you can feel the warmth and dazzling. This image will be great to have to look back on on a dull winter day. Later this week we’ll away in Vienna for a few days. See you soon again in blogland, Elizabeth! :o) ((HUGS))
i love that first sentence:) and love the photo too!
love the look of this photo, and the word sun-drenched, and the fact that you were at a spanish castle, and that you had such a picturesque adventure!
