MyPictureSunday #17 - The Beauty of Spain

in #photography7 years ago

Welcome and greetings from Spain my Steemian friends!

I am happy to see that you enjoyed my recent TimTravels episode and here we are, back with some new shots from Spain! Being honest I have to admit that the longer I stay in Spain the less I want to fly back home. The local weather at home does not look that promising: rain, rain and more rain.

But let us talk about some more appealing things than rain! Time for some photographs, right?


Many of you asked me what equipment I use to take my pictures. Most pictures are shot with an iPhone 8 or the Nikon D750. I will make a more detailed post about my complete gear and what I use it for in the next days. The first picture you see today was shot with the new iPhone. Amazing quality, right? The portable cameras are getting better and better. It's perfect for some quick shots and not as heavy as my DSLR.


Here in Mallorca, I found a huge cathedral which I paid a visit. Put on a pedestal often enough by locals and tourists we decided to go inside just to become overwhelmed by the impression of its inner parts.


As promised I am working on my first travel video and more from the inside of the cathedral will be seen in the upcoming video. Another week and it will be finished. Be excited and do not miss it!

After our visit in the cathedral we drove to a famous place for cliff diving. You could jump from up to 20 meters into the azure water! Would you?




I know I say this way too often but this was literally one of the most beautiful places I have ever visited! Where else do you see a stone arch over blue water?

I hope you enjoyed this episode of MyPictureSunday. Leave a comment and tell us how your Sunday was and what you did. I will choose one random comment and send 10 Steem to the lucky person. In addition to that do not forget to check out tomorrows winner of the MyPictureDay photography challenge!

Ohh Gossh this insanely pictures looks so attractive Timsaid !
Nice work perfect contrast perfect toning that's looks so amazing can't wait to see more pictures!

Yes Freakin Spain! Why Cant America Have Places Like Spain!!! Freak man!

I'm sure America has! Can't wait to go there

Both of them are gorgeous :D

Really nice pictures @timsaid. I would say the original church pic is nicer, it has a nicer warmth to it than the pinky reds in this one.

Also if you stop by Barcelona give me a shout and I'll show you some cool places!

There is just something so imposing and yet majestic about cathedrals, great photo.

So beautiful

Certainly this one. It's magnificent.

I prefer this one for the serious aura it gives!

This one is definitely better and more eye catching as a preview for the post. That cathedral definitely looks awesome on the inside! Can't wait for the video you seem like you have a heck of a fun!

this one ! hands down.

This is awesome. even it is incredible. as if the picture is live. I can swear that it is magical.

I loved this so much! Spain is definately on my bucketlist! My Sunday was great! I joined Steemit! :)

Welcome on Steemit!

amazing place i loved it thanks alot for sharing this topics i posted about travel i think that good for you if you like it visit my page my steemit friend

From clamoring Barcelona to grand Madrid and radiant Seville, Spain's best-known urban areas are among the most prevalent vacationer goals in Europe, however the nation likewise brags an expansive exhibit of wonderful urban communities and towns that most explorers never observe. While Spain's various scenes loan every city its own particular pleasant feeling, it's the nation's long history that separates one town from another. Urban areas that had their prime amid the Spanish Renaissance are particularly not quite the same as those possessed for a considerable length of time by the Moors or Visigoths. A voyage through Spain's less-gone by urban communities gives explorers a special take a gander at Spain's long and eminent past and offers an extensive variety of noteworthy travel encounters.

#Happy_Steem!

Next time I travel to Spain I take you with us! You seem to be the best guide. Thanks for the great description, always great to learn new things

I´ll be waiting for you in Malaga, the best weather in Europe all over the year.

You really, really have an eye for architecture! ;) I always thought that, I even remember you once won a TV with such a photo :D

Greetings!

Joined August 2016 but you know me. Who are you? :D

Depending on the mood - yeah I probably would jump, it looks way too much fun not to. Beautiful photo's.

My Sunday? I love Sunday's! I took my daughter out to the airport to watch the planes take off & land. Was nice just sitting there with her watching them!

We did the same here! Have some photographs and videos from planes. Might post them

Ohh ,I loved this click

This Sunday relaxing,slept till 10 in this morning followed by a bollywood movies and later in evening went to KFC with my friends

Bdw how is iPhone 8? Got some negative review regarding its charging issue.

Hooooot Wings!
I'm in love with the iPhone 8, no problems encountered. Yet

Haha yes Chicken wings, gonna have a post on it tomorrow,haha

WOW WOW WOW THANKS SO SO MUCH!

I thank you!

That azure water is great. I don't think I would dare a 20 meter jump (always looks higher from the top) but I did jump about 20 feet at Sa Calobra beach in Mallorca a couple years ago.

Sunday's not over yet...plans are to spend some time with family members (birthday in the family).

I will make a post about Sa Calobra this week. Didn't know you can jump there!

Yes indeed. Fairly friendly for different bravery levels too since there are steps in the rock which allow one to jump from various heights. You can see them on the right hand side in the photo here:

Little sneak peak from my Sa Calobra.

Fantastic viewpoint! It's great how the rift in the rocks snakes out to the open water. I'll watch for the full post.

Excellent photos and liked the cathedral and especially attracted jumping into the water from the rocky coast to the sea, it is one of the best in Mallorca! Personally, I went with my family for mushrooms to the forest and mushrooms they collected a whole bunch, unfortunately we did not do the photo, but we were very pleased with the trip. Thank you @timsaid

Great to hear you had a good time. Take some pictures next time, would like to see them

Oh yeah, I'll try, thanks :)

Beautiful pictures

Catedral de Mallorca is indeed a gigantic beauty and so is cliff jumping in Mallorca.

All the pictures that you took are really magnifiscent :)

Well this Sunday was quite a better one for me. I would like to share my afternoon moment spent with my 'Kaju'.Let me tell you that Kaju is my doggy's name. I had gone to an evening walk with him. Taking a walk with him is always interesting and full of surprises. Cause he is so naughty and you never know what he will do at an instant. Ah this past Sunday was not exceptional as well. We came to meet two new friends on that walk. One is a girl who was also in a walk with her puppy 'Sia'.After having a chat with her we both found much similarities between us.And I actually we bade good bye to her as well as with her cute 'Sia'.

Some pictures of that day are given below
