Clearly something has not gone well for this gentleman. Perhaps his drink is unsatisfactory, or maybe something in his view is displeasing him. His companion seems to be OK, however, and seems to be enjoying her drink on this chilly day.
Not Spooky at All
I’ll admit I didn’t quite see everything going on when I snapped this shot, but it turned out to be pretty interesting when I reviewed it later. I know nothing bad actually occurred here, but it does look like the man on the right should be looking the other way, as the figure on the left does seem to be giving the couple too much attention.
Rainy Day in Spain
It was a rainy day during our visit to Salamanca, Spain back in 2019, but didn’t stop the locals (and the tourists) from getting out and about. Our visit to Salamanca was the trip that gave us the idea to move to Spain, so this town has a lot of meaning for us.
Caught You Lookin’
Just another day out shopping for some people in Valencia. I’m not sure if this pair in the lower right corner are waiting for someone inside the shop or if they’re just waiting. I liked the look of the scene with the two mannequins “standing” behind them and just as I clicked the shutter, one of them looked right into the camera as if to say “I see you there”.
And… Action!
These two definitely have different approaches to visiting the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, Spain. The young lady here is on her second or third “take” taking a video selfie in front of the massive architectural wonder behind her while her companion checks his phone.
Well, Where is It?
One of my favorite street shots since I started taking them. Shot on Carrer de la Pau here in Valencia, I absolutely love the expression on the woman’s face here as she patiently (or no so patiently) waits for her companion to hand her something. Since they’re standing at a door, I’m assuming he’s looking for the key, but I didn’t stick around long enough to see the ending of the story. Shot from the hip here and processed in Adobe Camera Raw.
Long Shadows – Valencia
The shiny streets of Valencia come alive when the sun is low in the sky and it also creates some lovely long shadows if you happen to be in the right place. This couple take on an alien like appearance when viewing only their shadows on the blocks of the sidewalk. This was shot in September of 2022 near Plaça del Tossal.
Walk with Me – Salamanca, Spain
Digging into some of my earliest street photos here with this shot from Salamanca, Spain. This was taken during our Viking cruise in Portugal, which also included a day in Salamanca. Visiting this city not only offered some inspiring views, but it also was the point where Carmen and I decided we wanted to look into moving to Spain. I only have a handful of street images from this trip, but you can see the rest of them by clicking here.
