On my experience what do you define as ?The Art of Observation? is like a job that it is improved by the practice and even it becomes some mechanical attitude. I can?t understand so many likes to pictures on the street, not street photography, that they say nothing. Today?s cameras are so perfect that anybody can shoot a correct picture, what is different than a good picture. Thank you for encouraging the group to visit Barcelona! for me it is a great pleasure and along the years I have already meet a lot of very good friends. For the next season I?m preparing the announcement of some Workshops in Barcelona about Street Photography specially focused to three concepts: Observation, Emotion, Invisibility. I think it would be quite difficult explain certain things, many times when I observe something there is no time to say somebody look at that and shoot! I hope I can be reasonably able to explain or show how I work, I know that my English is not so rich as I would like but fortunately the World of the images, as well the World of the music, don?t require many words?. I?m as well in a good relationship with the Leica Store in Barcelona and we would do some cooperation on the workshops. I?ll keep the group informed during this month Cheers Lluis > El 2 set 2016, a les 0:33, Ted Grant <tedgrant at shaw.ca> va escriure: > > ONCE AGAIN?
