H. A. N. W. E. everybody. San Lorenzo de El Escorial from La Machota Chica.

A bit too far for as clear a shot as I would have liked, especially without lenses, tripod etc, but the magnificent palace / monastery is visible for many miles around, especially from the surrounding mountains of La Sierra de La Guadarrama.

Yes, thank you!

Very interesting colours and landforms in this photo; so very different from anything we have in the UK.

Andy Rodker replied to Earthwatcher:

I have seen similar colourings in the Peak District and Dartmoor, but that was more to do with atmospherics and light than the underlying geolgy or flora.
Many thanks!

It is a wonderful view from your vantage point. I do hope you are still keeping safe, as I've heard that Spain has had a second wave of virus. Please stay safe.
