I remember, Barcelona was full of people, with nice se?oritas!, it seems me that it was yesterday, and there is already 15 years!, you now my daughters was participated on the inauguration dressed as the see, it was very nice moments! Barcelona a very nice city to walk, as well, why not? Madrid, Sevilla, or Paris. There are many cities and many places on the world that ?ook better through the fines eyes of a good photographer, IMHO I think the person should be simply in love with the ambience, participate and try to undesrtand the people. This is your advantage, anyware of you are you can take marvellous pictures. Your mentiomnned photo is a memorable timeless symbol of the Barcelona Olympics. Thank you very much to look at "my" se?oritas, I'm very happy you liked them!, thanks also for your comment!

But it was the beautiful senorita?s every day and night!!! :-) I?ve always wanted to return to the cities where we worked during the Olympics without the pressures of lugging the gear and ruled by a ?Start time list.? Barcelona has always been one at the top of list simply because we worked hard, played hard and had a wonderful time above and beyond being a photographer 18 hours a day! Oh one can always find fun time even though you have no idea what time of the night it is! ;-) Not to forget that at some games we are lucky enough to come home with an award winning memorable photograph. In this case my photo of a diver in full back arch high in the air as though flying over the city. So your series on Saturday senoritas brings back many happy and fond memories. Well done!
