One of things I love down there is of course the food; and few of the Spanish foods are as photogenic as the big hams which are found in even the most modest bar. They usually hang from the ceiling, and when the time comes to use them (for tapas), then the ham is put in a kind of wooden vice and sliced thinly as needed. My wife says I am obsessed with these hams, and she is right. So 3 of the 4 pictures have this porcine them. First, the "ham museum" near Plaza Mayor in Madrid: http://www.wajsmanphoto.com/2003_45.jpg Then, a man studies the stuff in a regular supermarket in Malaga: http://www.wajsmanphoto.com/2003_45alt1.jpg A close-up of the goodies: http://www.wajsmanphoto.com/2003_45alt2.jpg The final alternate is from Seville, a cafe inside a large indoor food market, where this man is waiting for his morning coffee, and he looks like he needs it: http://www.wajsmanphoto.com/2003_45alt3.jpg All pictures taken with the Leica CL, 40mm Summicron, on Fuji Provia 400F. The complete PAW index is at: http://www.wajsmanphoto.com/indexpaw2003.htm and as always, comments and critique are appreciated.
