I always enjoy the raining days, particularly in the streets of the old Barcelona, they are really beauty. You mention the ?Art of Observation?, it is true without it, photography or other arts would not exist, but in my humble opinion, maybe I?ll talk simply about seeing, everyone of us has a different form to see and build in his imagination a picture, many times in Barcelona with other LUG friends we have shoot the same subject but everyone has showed a different picture. I think it would be very hard learn the art of observation for someone if he ?don?t see?, on the other hand, for persons like we the Luggers are, see is very simple, is not an exercise, as we have learned from you, you see it? you shot it! Cheers!
