In between the storms.

In between the storms.
Taken from near the front of my flat, last year. The building with the rounded frontage is a famous Madrid music school. Even though my flat is some way behind the front entrance of the block (which contains 288 flats), agreeable wafts of music can often be heard!
Look at the date (30/08). In the UK it would be typical weather for the Late Summer Bank Holiday!
I can't say I felt homesick because of it!

That's a daring and very effective use of tilt. That keeps your attention. I'm going to pay you the compliment of stealing this idea. Thanks.

Seriously, this photo captivates me.

Ha Ha Ha, John! I'm flattered. But you know full well that it's a mistake by me (but I did find the the slightly squiffy dispensation appealing so didn't correct it!)

That lowering sky makes me feel right at home. Like the church and the music school building. The bike racks are pretty good too. Have a happy and healthy week.

I love the word 'lowering' Jean. I would like to see it back in fashion!
We should agree to encourage its use wherever possible! I might set up a group; Lowering skies'!

Superbe d'habiter dans un coin pareil et en plus a coté d'une école de musique,ce qui vous laisse le soin d’écouter de temps a autre peut être des petits morceaux sympathiques.
Bonne fin de nuit.

A very threatening sky Andy, looks like everyone has dived for cover or is it empty because of Covid?.

Last year and so pre-Covid, Maurice. But the date is 30/08 so equates to late summer bank holiday in Blighty and hence downpours!

Funny... taken long before the current situation and street is empty... everyone took cover?

Probably!! The Spanish don't 'get' rain and run for cover at the first sight of the smallest cloud!
