dramatic Madrid



On our first night in Madrid, after a violent rain storm, we walked around the hotel area and just behind the Opera House was the Royal Palace. It was fairly late around 10:30pm and the clouds where dispersing. Here are two photos, one of the Ceremonial Court yard of the Royal Palace bathed in rather sharp light and opposite that of the Cathedral c.1993, the inside of the building is gothic, the outside is neo-classical to match the Palace. Given that no one actually lives in the Palace, it has an eerie look. Photos are by Will.
