The Cathedral in Palma de Mallorca
This is, probably, the most distinctive landmark of Palma. The cathedral, called la Seo by the Mallorquines, was constructed from 14th to 19th century, and the highly creative Antoni Gaudí designed its interior in 20th century. Results are fascinating and original at the same time, almost impossible to describe with words. Most outstanding are perhaps the Puerta del Mirador, a door towards the sea created by architect Guillen Sagrera, and, in the interior, the chapels Capilla Real and Capilla de la Trinidad, as well as the museum with masterworks specially of the Baroque epoch.

There's no doubt that the architecture is absolutely beautiful, and you captured the structure with the surrounding light very beautifully. Welcome home, I hope you had a good holiday

As usual Paraman you have come back with a great sharp photo. I never did get to see Palma when I was there a few years ago but it is lovely island.

The light has been captured beautifully here, bringing te beauty of the building to the foreground, looks excellent full screen.
