C'est très beau: les angles et tours, les sculptures où on imagine les hommes supportant les piliers, les fenêtres, waoh!

I remember standing awestruck at the complexity of this ceiling, unable to quite comprehend how it was made so wonderfully. Nicely captured

"L'Alhambra ! l'Alhambra ! palais que les génies
Ont doré comme un rêve et rempli d'harmonies.
Forteresse aux créneaux festonnés et croulants
Où l'on entend la nuit de magiques syllabes,
Quand la lune, à travers les mille arceaux arabes,
Sème les murs de trèfles blancs. » L'orientale - Victor Hugo
Palais que les génies ont doré comme un rêve rempli d'harmonies.... c'est ce que je voulais dire !!!!
C'est splendide.

@shygefe: Merci de ces vers du génie de Hugo, de magnifiques alexandrins pour la merveille de l'Alhambra.
J'aime beaucoup ton effort :)
Stephane Themeze from Maryland, United States
The change of mood in the architectural craft and also the light. More intimate and the harmony given by your symetry. I like! Nice composition.

Si es angulo elegido es el mejor: no es totalmente simétrico, de forma que podamos apreciar la poesía de las líneas.
Me gustó!

For the sake of the very original, special architecture I'd have liked more light here! (I saw it again on TV today - the Japanese are very much in love with Alhambra, they voted it No.1 spot in all of Spain!)

@Japanalia: Thanks very much for your comment!
Tryng to balance more the lights, many details faded and the windows burnt the light. This is my best try :))
