Barcelona Drummer: African Beat

We are going to park the bikes for a while cause this is not a motor site. Not that today's picture shows precisely anything about Barcelona but you know I am prone to changing topics easily. In fact, to make it a drastic change, I shifted color for BW. Portraits are not my speciality but I like the way the face insinuates the hands' drumming. For the other part of this photo check my previous link: African Drummer in Barcelona.

La Pedrera or Casa Mila by Gaudi at Paseo de Gracia, Barcelona

Today I will go to bed quite late but it has been worth the time spent on posting this photograph. It has its flaws but I like the stormy look and the contour of this building: Casa Mila also known as La Pedrera one of the best works by Gaudi located at Paseo de Gracia. You can see some people up there admiring the strange chimneys or turrets that are scattered all over the roof. Have a nice weekend.

Some links I have gotten from my fellow stumblers: Pictures that changed the world, How to know when someone is lying and the amazing work of George Lange (thanks Kuanyin)
