Photographer's Note
In 1520 when the statues of the Virgin and San Sebastian were installed in the Aqueduct, the Plaza del Azoguejo was a fairly small space since many houses were very close to the Aqueduct and the church of Santa Columba had its apse almost attached to it.
The result of the demolitions of several houses and even the church of Santa Columba, today gives us the wide space of the Plaza del Azoguejo.

En 1520 cuando se instalan en el Acueducto las estatuas de la Virgen y San Sebastian, la plaza del Azoguejo era un espacio bastante reducido pues muchas casas estaban muy próximas al Acueducto y la iglesia de Santa Columba tenia su ábside casi pegado al mismo.
El resultado de las demoliciones de varias casas e incluso de la iglesia de santa Columba, nos da hoy en dia el amplio espacio de la plaza del Azoguejo.

Hi Luis
This is really beautiful, with the magnificent castle the star of the show. Lovely blue sky and I also like the red elements scattered around the foreground.
Best wishes

Hello Luis,
Basically this is among the few places I remember from my one day visit long ago. But you mention demolitions of several houses, so I wonder if it looked the same in 1984. In any case we get a great and unobstructed view from this angle of the viaduct but particularly of the beautiful buildings on its right side. I like how the picture is brightened by the many small red spots.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hello Luis, your shots from Segovia are very informative and would look well in a travel guide for the city. It looks an extremely interesting place to visit.
I like this point of view with the aqueduct putting the rest of the scene in context.
It is lovely that there is now enough space so as to be able to stand back from the aqueduct and get some wonderful views of it.
There is a nice mixture of architectural styles looking onto the square, excellent shot.
Good to see people out and about.
Kind regards, Jean.

Hi Luis
The weather looks very fine and so lovely to see people out and about, adorning this impressive big square with its intriguing architecture as maion features. The colours are bright which increases the visual effectiveness and superb contrast to blue sky. You really captured the moments very well, Congrats

Hello Luis,
The intersection of the aqueduct and the city walls makes for a spectacular view. I wish the plaza had more green and less concrete.

Hola Luis,
I just love wide open spaces in the middle of the town like this. We can see here an array of the smaller stylish houses and the walls of the fortress above them.
Plenty of people bring in some life but are far enough so they don't destroy the scene.
Beautiful weather day. You keep surprising me with the beauty of this lovely town,
M

Hello Luis,
The well known square and the aqueduct presented from an original point of view.
The buildings and the long wall contribute very well to the beauty of this location.
Brightness and colours make the view very attractive.
Best regards, Paul

Well framed and composed with perfect density levels and excellent sharpness. Punchy light contrasts and the warm colours of the buildings contrast well with the blue sky. Tfs!
