11 Jun 1984
Granada, Andalusia, Spain
Pentax MX with an SMC-Pentax 50mm / f:1.4
Fujichrome 100 (Exposure not recorded)
The Palacio de Generalife was the summer palace of the Nasrid rulers of the Emirate of Granada. The Arabic name was Jannat al-‘Arīf, meaning “Architect’s Garden”. It was built during the reign of Muhammed II (1273-1302), Sultan of Granada, and Muhammed III (1302–1309).
Editing was done with Luminar Flex 1.1. I use the Develop filter to raise the color temperature and contrast, open up the shadows and decrease the exposure a bit. Next I added Accent AI, Polarizing, Golden Hour and Soft Focus (#1) filters and used the Tone filter to increase the SmartTone. I used the Structure filter to bring out a little detail and the HSL filter to lower the brightness of the greens and yellows and raise the brightness in the reds.

Beautiful place thanks for share
You’re welcome. I was n awe of the detail when I was there.
La Alhambra and Granada are very beautiful. Nice post.
It is an amazing place. The architecture is fantastic and the gardens are beautiful.
Great photo. Have you been touring this place or you are a resident here?
My wife and I visited there in 1984. We live in Chicago.
I wanted to go there too but now I have stopped travelling and so it will still be a dream
Yeah, due to health issues traveling is pretty much out for my wife and I. We can still make some local trips but foreign travel is pretty much out of the question.
