Photographer’s Note
Mini Hollywood is located approximately 24 kilometres from Almeria on the N-340 to Tabernas. In its heyday, more than 100 films were partially shot here, including 'A Fistful of Dollars', 'The Magnificent Seven' and 'The Good, the Bad and the Ugly'. There is also a small zoo here with lions, elephants, brown bears and giraffes. Just three kilometres away is Texas Hollywood, also used as a set and boasting a Western town, stockaded fort, Mexican pueblo and Indian tepees.
This multilingual lady at the ticket office wasn't only lovely and helpful, but she also gave us the biggest Spanish smile I've ever seen.

I like the way you captured the sun in her hair, it's her smile that lights up the frame though...
