Frederich Soler, a great exponent of Catalan romantic theatre. Photo by Richard Schear, Barcelona, 2008 |
During our week in the south of France in April, 2011, we weren't very far from Barcelona,
a city we really enjoyed when we stayed there in 2008.
We talked about taking a train from Perpignan to Barcelona, but never did. This shot is from '08.

A nice monument sitting in the shade of a tree.
excellent shadow shot.
I don't like the modern house behind it, much prefer the ornate ones on the right.
Terrific shadow shot for the day! Barcelona is a beautiful city! Hope your weekend is off to a great start, Kay! Enjoy!

Beautiful sunny sky over Barcelona, perfect for shadows!
wow what a lovely scene and statue - great shot!
The shadows of the parking garage are deep and gloomy. That building seems out of place there, to my way of thinking.
Beautiful Kay! Isn't it fun to find pictures in your files that work for sharing like this? I'm glad you found it.
As I've only traveled/lived in the U.S. and Canada, I love the chance to look at the photos on your blog. Nice shadows!
It was a good day for shadows!
Hah! When a friend and I were in Carcassonne in Sept 2010, we journeyed on down to Barcelona. An astounding city ...
Lot of details in the shot - the shadows, statue, new n old building, on top of it lovely sky makes the shot wonderful!
TQ for commenting on my blog:)
A train trip woulsmall d be fun I think. I went on one as a child to my grandmother's and still remember it. We have so much fun watching the trains pass from our boat and waving to the engineer and passengers. They always give us a toot of the horn. Great fun! - Margy
Hi Kay, thank you so much for dropping by at my blog I appreciate it so much.

What terrific contrast there are in this photo. Not only the shadows on the statue, but the contrast between the statue and the two buildings behind it.
Nice capture.
I think I was in Barcelona when I was 22 or something, I don't remember anything, so it's good to see at least something now !
Wonderful picture with shadows and lights in perfect harmony!

Ohh!!! I find that shadow a little spooky and eerie. It's like a giant, skeletal hand reaching down from the heavens. The Grim Reaper? It made me shiver just looking at it. Amazing how we each can interpret something in a different way, based on our perspective.
I really like the way the shadows play across the statue, it brings out textures in the stone. Great shadow shot.
Beautiful photograph - so many textures in it.
Kay....love this! There are really no words I can find to show you the feeling I have viewing this incredible sculpture.

Have a great week.
Lovely shot. Barcelona is on our wish list to go, has been for a log time. I hope we make it there some day :-)
Beautiful shot Kay! Have a blessed Sunday!
Lovely shadows and a most interesting statue!
Hope you are enjoying your weekend!
Excellent shadows, Kay. I did love Barcelona.
