Excellent composition, Maria! I like the Church used as a background for an attractive lake shot, with the people in the foreground for great human interest. All around a very appealing image.

This is the first time I see a building by Gaudi on "Usfilm", Maria. I think you migh also hve put your "Relax in Barcelona" in the Henri project. I am sure that old Henry would have been delighted and so, with all humility am I. The elderly wmen in front, the younger one a little further back and the chrch in the backgound make an exdellent composition, conveiying the idea of tranquility and relax.
Thank you fort yoy generous comment on my "Sparrow".
Saludas and Shalom,
Rafi
Thank you for your lovely

Hola Maria, how is my friend? Gaudí is one of my faviorite architect (artist). Your composition is good. My eyes were walking a the park. I first saw the ladies up front. Then my eyes went to the young lady, the water and on to the church. I like this photo Maria. I have never been to Spain, and your photo make me want to visit. Cheers, James

I love Barcellona the most neapolitan town in Spain.
I'm a fan of Antonio Gaudì (over all Paseo de gracia) and soon i will back in Barcellona to spent holidays eating Gaspacio, Paella Catalana e sangria Maria and shoting in every place of the town except along the ramblas..Thank you for your comment, still my last picture has been shotted at 1.30 p.m. and yes the effect obteined is exactly what you saw (like a night shot).

Thanks so much your comment.


Maria José Barres   {K:11276} 9/14/2004
Hello dear friend Paolo:
Thanks very much for your kind comment to my Barcelona shot.
The "Gaspacio" is Gazpacho and it is andaluz from Andalucia (Sevilla, Granada, Cordoba, Jaen...). The "paella" isn't catalana is valenciana (from Valencia, my town);-)
When you come back to spain, I will be your guide.
Baci.


Rob Ernsting   {K:8949} 9/14/2004
A very special capture, Maria. How beuatiful the Gaudi Sagarda Familia in the back and the fluffy trees in the middle. Resting people, very different and magnificent colors. Excellent.

Allen Aisenstein   {K:5652} 9/14/2004
Lovely architectural cityscape, Maria. Good composition and interesting subject. Excellent work! Regards


Christian Barrette   {K:21125} 9/15/2004
Molt bon !
Lo que me impresiona es la uniformidad en los tonos, en la luz. Se parece de alli a una escena de una pelicula. Cuenta muchissimas cosas, es enigmatica. Quales son los lazos entre las dos mujeres ? Quien es esa mujer de atras ? Sera ella la madre de la crianza ? Hay una crianza de todos modos ?
-- Alquilé un piso en Barcelona por tres semanas en el verano del 2003.

Khaled Mursi Hammoud   {K:53382} 9/22/2004
Hi Maria, I've been to Barcelona 16 years ago and the church "Sagrada Familia", i.e. the sacred family, is an amazing place to visit, I went up the towers and took nice photos up there.
Your photo is very relaxing, with nice foreground having the church in the background. Great shot Maria, bye.


NN     {K:26787} 9/24/2004
It?s relaxing to look at this image. Nice composition with human, natural and architectural elements in a harmonious mix!


Jorge Vasconcelos   {K:33746} 9/27/2004
Very good picture.With the risk of being insulted, I do not follow Gaudi and his Kitsh/Baroque.Every piece he made is overdone and too much complicated.But this only my own opinion.
Regards
jorge


luis pereira   {K:22507} 9/27/2004
Truly a nice shot. Everything in the right place. Got to visit someday but it willl be when Real Madrid plays Barcelona.

Mark Beltran   {K:32612} 3/23/2005
What a view! I think i'd like it in Barcelona. Yes, I do have Spanish blood. I will try to see if I can access archives in Barcelona through the internet, to look for Juan Chrisostomo Beltran.
