Photography Holidays, Alpujarras - Spain
Introduction
A photographically rich region characterised by intense blues, the
pure clear light of the Sierra Nevada and some of Spain's most
unspoilt villages where life unwinds gently and dogs lie snoozing
in the shade.
The Alpujarras provide a magnificent landscape, where the
backdrop is invariably the snow-covered Sierra Nevada – Europe's
Himalayas. Here, in this ravined landscape among the foothills of
the Sierra Nevada, we capture the floral riot of spring and the
burnished finale of a mountain autumn.
These great mountains are contoured by acequías, Moorish
irrigation channels clinging to the mountains and nurturing the
green aprons of the villages with their raspberries, kiwi fruit and
pomegranates. This was the last corner of Moorish Spain and
the rich Berber legacy is pervasive. Scattered among this dramatic
scene, and clinging to precipices, are the villages of Capileira,
Bubión and Busquistar.
