Barcelona


Barcelona is the city of Guadi, the man who basically started Modern architecture.  His church is still unfinished and probably will not be completed for another 50 years.  Even in its unfinished state I've never seen a church like this before.  Konrad, I think this is the same one you were talking about and you should have gone inside.  















































































These next pictures are a couple other buildings he made.  After seeing these I know he must have been an inspiration to Santiago Calatrava, another Spanish architect, who is known in Wisconsin for the new wing on the Milwaukee Museum of Modern Art.  









































We spent our nights eating tapas and drinking sangria.  On one night we got to see a Flamenco show.  I basically set the camera on the tiny table in front of us, propped up on a film canister and hit the button to see what I could get.  These are some of the better results.
