The Chapel of Santa Clara

I had been on a family-get-together holiday in Mallorca. I had dropped my mother, sister and three nieces off at the airport and had a few hours to kill before my flight was due out, so Milan and I took a wander around the tiny back streets of Palma.

At the end of one such street was a high walled arched gateway with an iconic painting of a saint (Santa Clara I later discovered) in an arched recess high on the wall. Two huge solid wooden gates were closed, but a small door within one of the gates was open, so I wandered in.

Inside was a courtyard with a fabulous old church building within. I went quietly inside and was greeted with this wonderful image.

This shot is a panoramic made up of three landscape shots cropped and resized.

Wow, this is excellent. Is that a melted font in the foreground with ripples of boiling water on the tiles?
