Monday Morning Photo - Palacio de la Merced, Cordoba

Once one of the most important buildings in Córdoba, Palacio de la Merced was founded in XIII century as a  Mercedarian monastery. When the order was dissolved it became an orphanage then in the 1970s a Provincial Government seat. The Baroque portal is in the middle of the enormous frontage, the cloisters and monastery church remain and services are still held there today.

Monday Morning Photo - Above the Clouds on Sierra Sur´s Highest Mountain

Driving up the highest point of the Sierra Sur mountain range in Jaen province to see the sunset, we hit cloud. Thinking that was it, no views tonight, the swirling mist lifted and we were on top of the sea of clouds with rocky peaks surfacing here and there. A bright reddy-orange sunset on one side and this surreal pastel coloured view on the other. The peak of the Sierra de la Pandera is 1,872m above sea level.
