Stunning location & pics! Thanks for sharing.We're travelling south to Southern Spain for Christmas with our family (we hope).
We decided to take a slow road trip from France and take advantage of a winter offer from the Parador Hotels......
Wow, how envious am I?We're travelling south to Southern Spain for Christmas with our family (we hope).
We decided to take a slow road trip from France and take advantage of a winter offer from the Parador Hotels... yesterday and today we accidentally found ourselves on the Camino de la Lana and WOW! Alcala del Jucar was an absolute treat... we're also meandering along the Levante and already planning our walk on this route in 2023 (more fingers crossed)
Seasons greetings pilgrims

Alcalá looks stunning in Winter! And where on the Levante did you go explore?? I wish I could be back on the Lana right now...!
Teruel is smack dab on the Camino Sagunto;from Tedula to Teruel via Albarracin. I'm not sure if these are camino towns
Wow. I have so many questions.The cathedral in Turuel had the most incredible wooden painted ceiling.
It has been called the "Sistine Chapel" of Mudéjar art, for its great architectural and pictorial value. It measures 32 meters in length and dates from 14th century. In its coffers are paintings of officers, craftsmen, historical figures, and fantastic beings. These diverse human types and extensive variety in pictorial imagery are well preserved because they were covered by a false Neoclassical ceiling in the 18th century, which protected the paintings from inclement weather.
You could walk up to the ceiling along a little high gallery... it was incredible

Hi there... I use the camera on my phone... a Samsung Note 10+ ...many years ago had a little point and shoot but these days the smartphone is so much easierBonjour @LesBrass a quick question re your wonderful photos. I still use a camera (just a small but good point and shoot) rather than my phone.
Are your photos taken with a camera? If so, could you let me know what you use.
Merci pèlerine. Et bonne continuation
Thank you. Your photos are great.. I use my phone for photos day to day but have stuck with my camera when travelling. Think I may have to convert and teach myself,how to use my phone camera properlyHi there... I use the camera on my phone... a Samsung Note 10+ ...many years ago had a little point and shoot but these days the smartphone is so much easier
It's worth it... I found some helpful tutorials on YouTube and just played with all the different settings. I reckon I only use half of the functions and there's a whole pro setting I've not ventured to try yetThank you. Your photos are great.. I use my phone for photos day to day but have stuck with my camera when travelling. Think I may have to convert and teach myself,how to use my phone camera properly
Thank you. Will definitely do that before our next Camino. We plan to fly to Paris late March for two months in France and Spain. My husband is French and we haven’t seen his girls and grandchildren for two years.It's worth it... I found some helpful tutorials on YouTube and just played with all the different settings. I reckon I only use half of the functions and there's a whole pro setting I've not ventured to try yet
Hmmm. Not sure. But it's 9km from the Levante.so which camino is home to Belmonte?
We found more arrows today's... but which camino
Fantastic photos of an area of Spain I haven't really looked at. I tried to retrace your travels on maps. It looks like you made a big loop, but I'm not sure I got the order correctly. We're thinking of doing a couple of week car trip this spring, so your photos have been inspiring us to look in this area. Would love to see more photos, keep them coming if you have the time.
Could you point me more specifically to the tutorials? Pretty please.It's worth it... I found some helpful tutorials on YouTube and just played with all the different settings. I reckon I only use half of the functions and there's a whole pro setting I've not ventured to try yet
Oh I wish I could... it was quite random ... I searched for things like " take better photos on a smartphone" ... some of the videos were specific to iPhone but the principle of composition and so on where the same. It was a few years ago that I started looking and honestly can't remember but I know that I found lots on YouTube... I'll see if I can find any but not sure I'd remember which ones... I'm so sorryCould you point me more specifically to the tutorials? Pretty please.
You obviously found much more than just the compositional rule of thirds! Stunning photography.Oh I wish I could... it was quite random ...

Thank you... I love taking photos when I'm walking... over the years I guess I developed a kind of style... but regardless i do love both the blog writing and the photographs. I've started making photo books of our journeys as so often photos are never printed and just get lost. I hope we can continue our adventures as the world (hopefully) starts to heal.Wow, can only say wow! Your photos are so beautiful...a "cut above", absolutely amazing! It's been lovely to follow you on your journey on four wheels by car!
I have two sons who will be home at Christmas...enjoy your holiday with yours.Thank you...

Tomorrow we head to the coast to meet our eldest son... the youngest we hope will fly out in 3 days... waiting and watching the rules change is so difficult... but we're all jabbed and boosted and tested... and careful. I hope this is enough
I hope that you get back too... and that things will be better for everyone... and I'll look forward to reading about your camino.On a totally egoistic note... I hope to be back in a lot of these places next summer, Covid willing. Both Cuenca and Córdoba will be on my Camino(s), if everything goes as planned. My feet start moving just by looking at there gorgeous pictures!!
May it be so!Tomorrow we head to the coast to meet our eldest son... the youngest we hope will fly out in 3 days... waiting and watching the rules change is so difficult... but we're all jabbed and boosted and tested... and careful. I hope this is enough
Yes it’s I think the most beautiful/ interesting / unspoilt Camino . Your photos sent a pang to my heart. We planning to return on 2022 but it all depends on fares / virus etc etc . Booked Salamanca for Semana Santa and hoping , Thanks for photos and Felice 2022 with plenty of CaminosWe're travelling south to Southern Spain for Christmas with our family (we hope).
