[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Today I feel in the mood for tales. I´m very busy this days, and from time to time I let my imagination fly, for example to places like this one: I can imagine some tales located in the palace behind this branches, or I can imagine tales for snowy days like this one. Are you in the mood for tales?

Hola Miguel.
Veo esto y no veo la Granja. Y no porque las ramas tapen la vista, sino por al atmósfera que se respira en la foto.
Y justo ahora he leído tu nota y entiendo más lo que estaba viendo en la foto (la música que tengo de fondo ayuda).
Casi puedo ver a una pareja corriendo sobre la nieve en una especia de cuento de hadas no escrito todavía.

Bien la foto y bien "leída" en la nota.

Carlos.

Hola Miguel,
hermosa imagen invernal del Palacio de La Granja, que me cuesta reconocer bajo la nieve.
Una composición fantástica y un encuadre muy interesante, con los árboles dominando el conjunto, y el palacio medio escondido entre ellos.
Buen trabajo.
Saludos
Josep

Hello Miguel!
This is unusual and wonderful photo of Spain. I like it.
Regards, Marta

Hi Miguel
Nice winter scenery.
I like the hidden palace after the tree.
Have a nice day.

Hi Miguel - a rare sight coming from Spain, I know Segovia is a bit higher in elevation than most cities but still I have never seen so much snow in an urban spanish setting, there was some snow when I visited Escorial 6 years ago. The yellow colour really stands out in an almost B&W scenery.

Hola Miguel,
Mirandolo a través de tus reflexiones si que puedo trasladarme a una de esas historias de princesas rusas, trineos y palacios de invierno. Pero nunca pense que esa atmosfera pudiese ser captada aquí tan cerca. Es una bellisima imagen.
Saludos

You are right about the fairy tale ambiance that comes from this picture. It looks simple, but this is not always an easy shot. You have a graduated sky (not pure white) - this is an excellent exposure - and the snow is also fairly white - not under exposed. The composition is just right. Well done.

There's a lot of mystery here. I imagine the building thanks to its shape and its colors too. A good framing with a strong colors constrast. Interesting.
