The lonely path

Thank you, buonacoppi!

Simply perfect Granite could you have some fun up here at night under the stars, same granite but a little wetter more lichen thats all.

Madrid is only 20 miles away Steve and the light pollution would be very obvious as this is the last granite bastion before the Meseta (Great Spanish Plain).

Jolie ****

simply beautiful granite

Yes, I prefer to scramble on the granite than take the path (I only take the path if I am late for my last bus back to Madrid!)

Beautiful composition.

Excellent shot, great composition and nice lead in.

Gorgeous path between the rocks, Andy !!!!!!!!

super-mooi pad,,maar niet lonely..want jij en je vriendin liepen er toch

No. She doesn't walk in the mountains. She gets vertigo and hated the 2 times she came here with me. I was perhaps too keen to show her some interesting stuff. Perhaps I overdid it. We do walk together but in town and on flat ground only and I often don't feel the need to take photos, especially as she hates it if I delay her or she thinks I'm going to take a crafty shot of her!
This is my first walk here in a year Fred! But that's not her fault - it is my painful feet and toes - side effect of diabetes.

You get some really great shots out there Andy -it looks wonderful

Très joli chemin. Nicole.

Hi Andy,

Another nice mountain shot. Must be a great pace to be!

Best Wishes and a good weekend
Peter

Thanks Peter - satisfyingly close to Madrid. An escape form the City needn't be a logistical hassle!
Best wishes,
Andy

This oustanding conveys a perfect atmosphere of beauty and silence!

Stunning views from up there Andy.............I really like all the different shapes and sizes of the granite. It almost looks as if it's been quarried and not shaped naturally!

How wonderful to have a good long walk and not meet anyone............

Agreed on all fronts, Keith.
There is evidence of very early quarrying in these mountains but not here.

Very many thanks to you all!

Sounds like a good day out Andy!

It was excellent, Rosa, thank you.
All on my own! Not with my girlfriend - it was a bank holiday (Madrid only)
and I had no classes to give but she, poor lass, had to work!

Ron H,
Rosa,
Many thanks to you both!
