A mushroom in my garden.

With the recent rains that have fallen, and humidity that has been generated in my garden, this mushroom has emerged.

The land on which it is the mushroom, is on the ground and there are small stones. Well, even so, the mushroom is out. In the photo you can see the small stones on top of the mushroom.

I do not know if it will be edible, but just in case I do not eat it.

Follow the arrow

At the same site as yesterday, the Torre de la Horadada, is this sign painted on the floor, and the signal that it remains upright. Under their direction, you can continue straight ahead or turn right. The problem is that if you continue straight you can fall to the beach. Things that make the signals.

Rough seas

These days is passing through Spain, and therefore by Murcia, a polar storm. The sea is raging.

The photo is of a beach in a coastal village in the neighboring region of Murcia: Torre de la Horadada (Alicante). At 50 km from the city of Murcia.

A skull !?

This picture seems taken from Pirates of the Caribbean.

In the sourranding area of the Santuary of La Fuensanta, you can see a beautiful landscape.

And if you want, you can find this image that seems to a skull.

These are two cave in the rock.

Sanctuary of La Fuensanta

The image is of the bell towers and the dome of the Sanctuary of the Fuensanta.

It is a monument of the XVII century, Murcian Baroque. While the cult of the patron virgin of Murcia comes from the Middle Ages.

More rain

Another day with rain. All Spain is with rain and I suppose that the rest of Europe too. Caution on the roads and we have to protect yourself then come colds.

Queen in concert + Paul Rodgers

Queen + Paul Rodgers acting in concert tonight in Murcia. With The Cosmos Rocks tour.

I suppose it will not be the same without Freddy Mercury.

The concert will be at the stadium in the Condomina (now called "old" Condomina).

I will not be able to go although I would love to attend. Again it will be.

Gas station and rain

I had to stop to throw petrol, with rain and clouds were above the petrol station.

Water

In Murcia there are several fountains where you can see how man can control the water.

I think I was a good shot. It seems that water moves.

This fountain is located on the esplanade of the FICA next to the Auditorium.

Rock Art

In a plot where it soon will be built in the Barrio del Carmen, you can see these paintings on the wall.

The Arch of Sto. Domingo

This arch joins Palace Almodovar (XVII Century) and the Church of Santo Domingo (XVIII Century). By then, it was a zone of passage of the palace to the church where the noble could go to hear Mass without leaving his palace, to his box in the church. Privileges which was then the nobility, as they used to be those that encouraged this type of construction.

Julian Romea Square

In this square, in honor of the actor Julian Romea Murcia, is the theater of Romea. It is a place where people go to eat, to take a drink, to the theatre, too.

The valley of Murcia

The city of Murcia is situated in a valley between mountains, where it circulates by the river Segura.

At the top of the image, emphasizing on the remaining buildings, we can see the tower of the cathedral of Murcia.

The photo is taken from the sanctuary of Our Lady of the Fuensanta (Santuario de la Virgen de la Fuensanta).

Teatro Romea

Theater Romea is located in the plaza of the same name, between the Gran Via and Plaza de Santo Domingo (Santo Domingo Square).

The name of the theater is given by an eminent actor of Murcia in the nineteenth century named Julian Romea.

This theater was inaugurated in 1862 by the queen Elisabeth II. Since that date that suffered several fires, and the last time I was re-opened in 1988 by the present queen Sofía. (Source: http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teatro_Romea_(Murcia) )

Past & Future

Grandparents. Undoubtedly, the voice of experience, and that today we have almost removed from our lives and we use as the babysitter. However, the work they do caring for grandchildren do good pleasure, no doubt. Grandparents are a very important pillar of society and on which we should support the wisdom of seeking more experience in life.

THANK YOU, GRANDPARENTS.

The other side of the storm

The mountains that are at the bottom of the image, full of clouds, which are I have to come and go from work. This photo is from last Friday when I came home, after going through this "hell" of clouds.

It's raining again!

On the way from work to home, I have to go through a port in the mountains. When I arrived there I found this picture: the whole mountain cloud cover, and raining, and I had to go through there!

A sardine in the river

On his way through the center of Murcia, on the River Segura it was placed this sculpture or fountain of a sardine, in tribute to one of the most popular festivals of Murcia: The Burial of the Sardine.

When It'll happen this event, which is always the first Saturday after Easter, I'll show pictures of it, and I'll tell something of the history of this fiesta.

Auditorium

This photo is from the Auditorium and Congress Center Victor Villegas de Murcia. From his front door.

Architecture

Architecture of man and nature.

I found this composition between the triangle and the verticality of the pine tree.

Mushrooms!?

At the front of the former artillery barracks are these "mushrooms", next to the main entrance.

It caught the my attention and from the perspective that I have taken, it seems that the "mushroom" emerging from the bushes.

As in the Caribbean.

Though it may seem a photograph taken in the Caribbean, this is the back of the old artillery barracks, where is this beautiful garden. In the background, and highlighting among the palm trees is what it was a water tank.

Theme Day: Lines

Although I have not been able to enroll in CityDailyPhoto.com the theme of the day (subject should be renamed the month), here I leave you my proposal for the theme of the day: lines.

This fence surrounds the garden of Floridablanca.

The garden is closed at night, because in the past was used to those hours at night by prostitutes and thugs. To avoid this, is closed every night from 23:00 to 7:00.
