Hopefully I won’t leave it quite so long for my next holiday abroad, though I wonder how to make travelling more environmentally friendly… maybe train?
The style of the architecture is very different to the Nativity Facade. On this side the supports are shaped to look like muscles or sinews. The sculptures are angular and more modern.
The basilica is, as can be seen in several of these photos, still under construction. The goal is to complete it by 2026, which will be the hundredth anniversary of Gaudi’s death.
This week I thought I’d share some photos from inside the basilica. Since the inside is all about light and colour I did not use my favourite monochrome…
It’s been a long time since I had a holiday abroad so I was really looking forward to spending a few days in Barcelona. Whilst I have been to Spain before, I’ve not been for a very long time and never to Barcelona.
There are also quite a few museums to visit. With limited time I had to prioritise and the Picasso museum was not to be missed. I must admit I am not a great fan of his more modern, impressionist/abstract work, but the more traditional portraits and landscapes he did when young were excellent.
I have photographed Rosario for her modelling portfolio before, but this time was different. She wanted some images for her henna art website. Whilst we were all set up it made sense to do some portraits too and this is my favourite.
Funny thing was that I edited this in colour at first, but I love B&W so much I decided I should go back and re-edit and sure enough, I much prefer this version.
