Walking down one of the many small picturesque streets within the Albaicín, where the whitewashed walls are so common! Did you know that many of the homes here are built inside of caves? No visit to the south of Spain is complete until you have visited one of Andalusia’s most unique neighborhoods, the charming Arabic quarter filled with Muslim influence. The Albaicín is located in the city of Granada, across the Darro River from the Alhambra fortress and palace. This Moorish “barrio” is just one of the many treasures of traveling through Andalusia and southern Spain.

Built in the Muslim-ruled Al-Andalus period of the Iberic peninsula, Málaga's Alcazaba fortress of course also has lush gardens that must be a welcome respite in the heat of summer.

As it says: In photography, Timing is everything
It is without doubt one of the most important keys for a perfect shot.
For example in this picture, the time here is called Magic Time.
I am not kidding, it is truly a great time and Architectural photographers are in love with it.
The magic time is said to be 15-20 mins after the sunset
As you can see here in the picture, Al-magrib prayer is just finished (people lol) and it was the best time for the shot
Why is it called Magic Time??
Basically, it has something to do with Lighting, yeah it shows the lights of the building + the lovely soft sky light. It gives the picture magical effects.
sometimes it is difficult to get the perfect exposure as you have to be very familiar with your camera setting. So I would advise you to shoot with RAW format.
one last tip, try your best to read the average light when you are pressing the shoot button half way, just give approximation for that, it helps to avoid overexposured areas.
Hope that helps ya 7elweeen o inshalah I would love to see your magical pictures applying this lovely concept :)
