[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is the outer arcade of a Romanesque church in Segovia. One can see the influence of the Moors all over Spain, even in frigid Segovia, where their culture shows up in the flowers and arches on every type of building--including Christian churches.
I know an arabesque is a move in ballet, but I couldn't resist the play on words :) Spain really is a land of "the three cultures".
Not much done in pp--maybe sharpened, that's it.

Hi Whitney.

Really the moors were influenced by Spanish culture.
However, nice photo and nice note too.

Regards.
