Description
Located just 38 miles northeast of Barcelona, Montserrat is a multi-peaked mountain range near Barcelona, in Catalonia, Montserrat Mountain is located to the right of the Llobregat River, in-between the Plain of Bages and the coast as part of a mountain range known as the pre-coastal mountain range. Its peak can be seen jutting out from the range. The sort of plant life that grows in Montserrat Natural Park reflects the fact that there is a damp Mediterranean climate (see below for more details on the climate in Montserrat). It is an interesting area for those who are interested in plants and vegetation as it is possible to see plants that are generally characteristic of dry environments next to plants that would normally be found in damp environments. Santa Maria de Montserrat is an abbey of the Order of Saint Benedict located on the mountain of Montserrat. It is notable for enshrining the image of the Virgin of Montserrat, also known as the "Black Madonna." This image was taken from the site of the abbey looking out on the mountain range.

In addition to the banner, I am adding this more permanent recognition of its FEATURE on the homepage of A TREE OR TREES IN BLACK AND WHITE. I try mightily to feature only images that would be at home in a juried competition. No doubt that this image fits that bill. CONGRATULATIONS! And consider adding your image to DISCUSSIONS "Please post your featured photograph here" for greater, long-lasting visibility.
