Our Granada Gallery
Our first taste of Andalucía
Here we have a collection of shots from our visit to Granada, as part of our 2014 Spanish road trip. It was our first experience of Andalucía, and the practice of giving free tapas to those at the bar.
However, Granada was so much more than Tapas bars, it's where I discovered Pan con Tomate, a favourite for my summer breakfasts.
The city just oozed charm & sophistication. One day we know we'll return.
Visiting the Alhambra
The highlight of any visit to Granada is the Alhambra. However we made a mistake, we should have booked our tickets in advance because we missed the chance to see the Nasrid Palaces. We were only able to get general admission.
You can purchase your tickets in advance at the Alhambra's website. Access to the Palaces is limited, and you can only access it within an allotted hour.
The technical bits
All images were captured on my Canon 1Ds-Mk III or the 1Dx-MkII. The lenses was my old stalwart travel lens, the Canon EF24-105mm f/4L.
Everything is catalogued in Adobe Lightroom, and the RAW files processed in the tool too. I always shoot in Camera RAW, and if you want to know why then check out my post 'Shooting RAW'
Jump onboard
One of favourites ways to kick off our trips is to let Brittany Ferries take the strain, sit back, relax and go with the flow. Enjoy a little bit of France onboard as you sail directly into Bilbao or Santander in northern Spain.
