Below are 500+ photos of wildlife, fossils, landscapes, museums, monuments, and cities taken in various countries, not in any particular order.

BULLFIGHT MUSEUM IN SEVILLE – MUSEO TAURINO DE SEVILLA – I had de opportunity to visit the Museo Taurino at the Plaza de toros de la Real Maestranza de Caballería de Sevilla, Spain. Despite the world opposition to bullfighting, this tradition continues in Spain, Portugal, and various countries in the Americas. The Plaza of Seville is impressive, beautifully carved and preserved, a legacy from 1749. The Museo Taurino (1989) is open to the public year round; it has a collection of artifacts of historical value, paintings and sculptures. I took hundreds of images with my cell-phone camera, some are posted here. Spain is such a historically rich country, and Seville is yet another of its beautiful cities.
