The Entrance

A drawbridge and stout wooden doors guard the entrance through these arches to the Ibiza Town inner walled sanctuary. Beyond here lie the narrow shadowed streets and dwellings of this area which climbs up eventually to the cathedral. On the way there we pass many more narrow lanes and alleys which leads us onto the town walls and to the castle and large bastion.

This place was often attacked by pirates and so i think they needed something like this.

Beautiful light and shadows and I like your perspective here. I also like the colour of the stonework. The cobblestones look very worn and you have to wonder. how many people have walked here over the years...........

Nice to see the image in the PiP, which puts this one nicely in perspective!

Herb Riddle replied to Keith Burton:

No doubt many, many pairs of feet have been through here Keith. Like you, I too enjoyed the soft sandy light in here and I have always had a passion for archways. Yes the PIP gives it some perspective.
