Thanks for all the comments!

To me, the shots with the conventional and fisheye lenses complement each 
other. As a single photo, I prefer the fisheye view too.

Nice pictures, so characterisic for southern Spain.
My parents in law had a holiday house near the beach in Malaga and I 
recall having to repaint the steel bars in front of the windows each 
time I stayed there.

That’s a very lovely house.

I was amused that when I clicked on the picture that you took through the gate 
of someone’s house, a privacy noticed popped up on my screen about cookies.

Very beautiful - I love that style of architecture. I first saw it up close in 
Gibraltar where one of my classmates was the son of the chief minister. I used 
to go to their house after school sometimes and it had a very similar 
courtyard. I think the style comes from the Islamic period in Spain - I’ve seen 
the same thing in Morocco.

Cordoba - Through the Gate

Many of the houses in Cordoba have an atrium, some of them open to the sky. 
Most of the houses seem to have gates (and bars on all the windows).
