Monastery, oak and granite.

Convento monasterio de San Julian y San Antonio, encina (a very hardy holm oak) in the foreground and Cancho Largo, the highest point in La Sierra de La Cabrera on the horizon. Granite everywhere! Another very cold winter's day despite appearances!
Suggest better on large.

A great view Andy. I love the textures and the tones here. A beautiful blue sky despite the cold.

We have had some sunshine here for the last couple of days, but ssshh, I don't want to jinx it!!

Thanks Peter!
The monastery is the only building seen here. The structure on the top is pure granite! In profile it looks like this: www.ipernity.com/doc/2247598/49488720/in/album/1255028

This is an amazing picture, Andy. The tree almost blends in perfectly with the granite.

I know and I tried to see how I could get the tree to stand out a bit from the background but in the end I gave up trying. after all it is how it was!
Thank you, Jenny!

The granite seems to have taken over the whole place, including the tree! (I had thought of a beautiful olive tree).
Very evocative, and shows nicely the isolation of this monastery.
Have a nice Sunday, Andy!

Eine spannende Landschaft mit Kloster, Steineiche und Granit, Andy.
Die einstigen Vulkane haben so manches ausgespuckt. Auch in meiner Heimat gibt es viel Basalt oder Granit.
Schöne Grüße
