A Summer Morning At The Palace

A Summer Morning At The Palace

I entered the Palace of the grand masters as soon as it opened.

I had successfully bribed my children with breakfast in the old town to get them out of bed early.

This would ensure great light, no crowds and avoid the august heat from sapping the enthusiasm to explore.

We explored the inner exterior courtyard first of all then the followed by the cool beautiful interior of the palace.

As we ventured further I notice an old locked glass door that led onto this fabulous balcony overlooking the palace and courtyard below.

The morning light was warm and wonderful creating fabulous shadows across the ornate floor.

I managed to position my camera as close to the slightly distorted old glass of the door hoping I could get a clear angle and the glass wouldn’t create too much distortion to the images.

This turned out to be one of several wonderful images I managed to capture of the palace that morning and probably my favourites.

We left the palace as the crowds began to increase and found a wonderful cafe in a small square in the old town.

We sat at a table in the shade of a tree and ate well deserved pancake breakfast that my children still talk about to this day.
