Description Took this in Barcelona around this time last year. Seemed appropriate for a Good Friday.

It's part of the fresque of the PAssion Facade of Gaudi's masterwork cathedral, the temple of the Segradra Familia. Amazing sculture work done by Josep Maria Subrirachs.

I truly love Barcelona and if I could would live there....

My other photos are here:[link]

Oh. I've decided to try out this try out this new "CRITIQUE" option because I want:

* Get real commentary and real feedback on your work
* Attract more views through critical attention and rankings
* Achieve community acclaim

and God knows that you can't just get that by just using favs and comments ( please note sarcasm here). What the hell, it's paid for.



Now go outside and enjoy the sun! And always bring a camera or a pencil and a pad!

Hope you all enjoy it and thank you for taking the time to look at my work and hope you come back for more visits!

************************************************************
if you enjoyed it enough to favorite and I will take this chance to say so in advance.

pretty sweet pic, dude. really interesting how the foreground's framing the pic (whatever it is).

... unfortunately that's as good of a crit as I'm able to give. obviously I don't know anything about photography other than what applies to drawing ... and even then I'm pretty crappy at those principles. hope those compliments are enough for ya.

The "critique" blurb in the text is my sarcastic joke at the new service that devART as set up....

I could spend weeks taking pictures of Gaudi works.

The catheral alone has thousands of elements to it and it's still only half done!

thanks for the compliment and for taking time to write it down. Much appreciated!

Have a Happy Easter!

Merci!

C'est de la nouvelle section de la cathedrale alors elle est a peine 20 ans, je crois.....

LE buste est en fait juste la tete de la statue de Jesus. Plus grande que nature, elle fait partie de une des 12 scenes du chemin de croix de la cruxification de Jesus de la facade.

C'est ENORME comme facade.
