It’s always good to see Michelle’s images in Travel and Leisure – the American travel magazine is a reference point for luxury travel.

August 2015 – The Full Moon Festival in San Luis de Sabinillas, Malaga, Andalucia

Marina del Este, Granada, Andalucia, Spain

More Photography News from August 2015 . Marina del Este is one of those chocolate box locations, hidden away on the Costa Tropical in Granada province, and a perfect subject for photography. Situated near the small seaside town of La Herradura, the port is in a natural cove with shelter from a rocky outcrop. If you are ever in the area, this is one marina that´s worth a visit, whether or not you’re a sailor. Marina del Este

Sierra de Aracena, Huelva, Andalucia

This is one of the most beautiful areas in Andalucia – the high amount a rainfall in the winter and the evergreen forest mean that you can visit in high summer and still have clear skies, deep shades of green and good visibility. This shoot consisted of white villages, monuments, food, mosques, churches and trees. A wonderful part of the world, where time has almost stood still and high-rise buildings are almost non-existent. There is something very pure about the Sierra de Aracena.

Finca Buen Vino, Los Marines, Huelva, Andalucia, Spain

Finca Buen Vino is not a hotel and the owners Sam and Jeannie Chesterton are proud of the fact – this is a welcoming shabby-chic retreat with exquisite food; an Anglo-Hispanic haven.

The food is to die for – Michelle’s visit was purely social, although she could not resist photographing the food, and produced a whole photo series on rotten organic tomatoes on their terrace. Food photography with a contemporary twist.
