Blast From The Past: Barcelona

La Sagrada Familia

Taking a break from all that's going on right now I thought I'd dust off the external drive. When I dumped Gallery for Flickr I hadn't uploaded all the trip photos that used to be available. At the time I switched I wasn't yet a Flickr Pro user so I had limited upload capability.

In 2006 I went to Barcelona with a bunch of friends. There were only a half dozen or so pics available on Flickr from that trip, which is a poor representation of all we did there. To partially correct that I've uploaded some of the ones I discovered tonight on the external drive.

People sometimes see the photos and ask me why there are no people in most of them. For a long time I was interested in capturing the *place* and I wanted that to be devoid of people who would time stamp the photo. After Nicaragua I realize this is a mistake. The photos should capture the *experience*, not the place. But its not like I didn't take pictures of people... case in point:
