Thank You, it is well worth a visit, the whole area is really.
It is, and if you like the Jamón serrano don´t forget this name: Trevélez. In this small village (supose to be the highest town of Spain) the smell of jamón serrano fills everywhere. You can enjoy a “bocadillo de jamón” with a wonderful sight of Sierra Nevada.

Interesting Photo’s to say the least. Congrads making “Freshly Pressed.” The one pic of donkey poop, I think the collection could have done without. Just an observation. I am sure there were some that thought….”Gee that is neat, wish we had poop like that on our street.”
Thanks for the observations, it was kind of a joke between the friend I went with, around every corner there seemed to be another cliché, dog with bone, baby kittens, little old lady with a jamón.. It was as if someone was orchestrating the whole scene.. okay cue the dog with the bone..
Cheers 🙂
That one picture of the road or alley between the two buildings looks steep. Must be hilly there. Nice photos.
Wonderful web site congratulations from Turkey
What a neat collection of photos! I love the snowy mountain.
beautiful pictures! Muy bellas, Arriba Andalucia!
What a beautiful place! So many interesting streets, turns, and curves. Thank you for sharing your photos.
The road less traveled is usually the most stunning!
I really like the sense of isolation and quietness of your pictures. I can even hear the silence.
Congrats!
Nice. I spent a few days walking in the Alpujarras and it was great. Lovely pictures!
Goodness, that dog’s expression is wise beyond its years. Or just very sad. I noticed the chain ran down along the bottom of the window. I suppose that look was because he was chained up?
Loved a lot of the in-town terrace shots, as well as the in-town road shots. Some of the spectacular scenery pics were lovely, as well. I especially loved imagining waking up to that view every day in “Somebody lives here”. How nice would that be?
It really is a lovely area, and not even an hour away from our little beach town. Spain is just such a wonderful place to live. Thanks for you comments!
beautiful place and photos!!!
beautiful!!
thanks for the really nice photos! looks really nice out there. always nice venturing off into a new culture

Cool pixels
Beautiful pictures! The chocolate factory looks simply divine 🙂
The “sentry” has a very wise look!
Your photos really give a feel of the place. Well done.
This is actually a place I might consider visiting some day. Nice pics as well, did you use a nikon or something similar? Also, I was wondering if you could check out my blog http://www.beatncakes.com/ under blog. I also have a gallery if you’re interested. 🙂 This isn’t spam I promise I’m just trying to spread the love. The love will be spread on mine as well ❤
Thanks for the kind words, I used a fujifilm, which I am sorry that I bought to be honest, the lens is not very good.. When I can afford it, I am going back to a sony.
The sentry looks like he could do with a coffee.
I accidentally ignored a comment I was trying to reply to, it was regarding why I had omitted the ñ and used a n in Salobrena instead. I kept it simple, for those without Spanish keyboards.
Hi. Nice pics!
I’m not sure if someone’s mentioned this already but there’s a lovely book called “South from Granada” by Gerald Brenan, a friend of Virginia Wolf et at. He spent some time in the area back in the 1920s.
Here’s a link http://www.amazon.co.uk/South-Granada-Penguin-Travel-Library/dp/0140167005
I lived in Granada for almost two years and had many adventures camping and lodging in the towns scattered throughout Las Alpujarras. Your photos bring back many memories of time spent there, especially in Capileira, where I tasted some of the best honey in the world.
Good luck on your adventures!

nice pictures…you tried the chocolate?
But of course, but of course.. got the dark chocolate..was divine!
Rugged, beautiful, inspiring.
Felicidades por su recién exprimido y un buen recuerdo del sur de España
Pics are awesome!
Wow! impressive view, the feeling that emerge from this place is simply breathable! Well done people!
Great Pictures! I´ve catched the wanderlust… 😉
Capileira, Pampaneira …
these diphthongs (-eira, -eiro), are rare in the south, is inusual and bizarre. It was thought that settlers were names of Galicia (NW Iberia), whose language, perhaps the most primitive and romance of Europe (and isolated mountainous area), still preserves these diphthongs, but is more likely to be degraded remnants of becoming latin romance , ten centuries ago and preserved in these mountainous areas.
from “ferrerum” (Smith) come “ferreiro”
did I see chocolate factory…. yummy…
You most certainly did. 🙂
Exactly this region was the last to be conquered by the Reyes Catolicos. It is not even strictly Andalucia.
Andalucia has always been the valley, the western lowlands of the Guadalquivir, Sevilla, Cordoba, Cadiz … these mountains are the Nazari kingdom of Granada, the last Islamic stronghold of Al Andalus, the highlands, another mentality, another Pronunciation, another culture. They themselves were saying, when they went to Seville, “let’s Andalucia”!. Nineteenth-century maps still differed both regions.
But he avoided politics and history artificially united the two territories into a single Andalucia.
Wow. I wish I could have been there. Looks pretty. I have been to 6 countries… in Scandinavia and Canada and USA. Norway had some nice mountains but not as tall as the ones in your pics.
Wow, nice! I especially like the picture of the tent catapillar. It doesn’t even look like a catapillar! Congrats on getting Freshly Pressed! Looks like you had a pretty cool time!
Absolutely beautiful photos – looks wonderful! Congrats, also, on being freshly pressed!
Thanks, it brought a lot of traffic to the blog for those 2 days.. cheers!
I love your pictures, and I love Spain!
Thanks very much! 🙂
Nice text & pictures, thank you.
Great article. Waiting for more.
