August 23: Barcelona part 2

Tom popped into a building somewhere and snapped this:
Nice balconys:
Another bronze dome-topped building:

Carlos leads the way, as Krista follows. Tom brings up the rear with the camera:A nice battle scene inbetween two doorways:Interesting building:First view of one of Gaudi's creations:Second view:
Right underneath. A lot of his inspiration came from organic material... nostrils anyone?:Close up of a window; he designed the outer coverings of the buildings to be on top of the actual structure, that way he had a lot more freedom with shape because he didn't have to depend on these parts to hold anything else up; the support behind it all. (If that is confusing I apologize.)


We didn't go into this building because the line up was HUGE. Carlos got us quickly to another one, though...
