Sevilla España

Sevilla España

This was from my last month's vacation in Spain. I got kinda worried bringing my Leica gear, but the night before my flight, I just said... "hell with it". I brought my M6, M7, five M lens, D2, LX1, Metz 54 MZ4i. To my surprise, the local Spaniards are very warm, polite and honest. "Also very clean". "Contrary to what I read in the web". We forgot a video camera at a store counter and the Spaniard came chasing after a block to return the camera. Likewise my Auntie forgot a bag in a Taxi and the cab driver came back to return the grocery bag. "Very amazing people". It made me proud that my grandfather is a Spaniard.

I haven't posted for a long time. I'm not sure how the photos will arrange below unlike the old forum.

M7, Summilux 35mm f/1.4 asph and Summilux 50mm f/1.4 asph, Kodak Ektachrome 100G

Cheers!

Ron,

nice shots - I'm glad you made the effort to master the new forum!

I particularly like the shot of the statue holding the orb.

I like the colors and compositions on #1,2 and 4.

Thanks John and Paul for visiting.

John, I glad you like the statue snap.
I almost choke for not breathing to make that shot @ 1/15 sec.

Paul, those are also my favorite, thanks!
I got the guide behind me on those snaps asking me to hurry-up cause the bus is leaving.

Thanks again guys!!!

Ron, pretty and just words on the inhabitants of Sevilla, one of the prettiest cities of Spain and that has a special charm. Good report.

Hola Bernardo,
Yes, I am very amazed with the beauty of Spain. But what amazed me the most is the Spaniards itself for their warmth and hospitality. The Aseos (Rest Room) you can take a deep breath, they are so clean.
I've made up my mind Bernardo... If I have the oportunity, "I will move to Spain".

Soon as I have the chance I will post my Abuelo's (grandfather) hometown of Barcelona.
Yes, he is a Catalan.

Muchisima Gracias!

The Spaniards went out of their way to please us. =)
