Quoting "G Hopkinson" <hoppyman@bigpond.net.au>:

 There are now 32 photographs up in my Barcelona gallery,
The new photographs start here. I?d love to hear some opinions or 
suggestions.

I liked seeing this travelog.  If you pardon one particular comment, in "more
watching",

I wish the two closest profiles were against less cluttered backgrounds.  It
seems that if the picture had been taken from slightly to the left and at a
lower angle, both faces might be seen more clearly.  I know this kind of
micro-composition is hard to achieve in fluid situations, but if it is kept 
in
mind, it might become second nature, and be achieved almost automatically.  I
had one mentor who used to joke, "Don't forget that your knees bend."

I hope my opinion does not feel like an indictment.  Thanks for showing your
work.
