Doll House bathroom

Copenhagen Nationalmuseet, 2010
So this is a temporary exposition I had the opportunity to visit on the national museum of Copenhagen... The temporary exposition was about the old doll houses (back in the time of the WWII) and this little creepy bathroom caught my attention !!

Wooden Shoe & Sunflower

Amsterdam, 2010
On our way to the Van Gogh museum, I spotted this lonely wooden shoe in a park with a sunflower.
I loved this city.

Bicycle & flowers

Amsterdam, 2010
There are two things that Amsterdam has all over: bicycles and flowers! If you get to go there, you will notice how many people ride bicycles and how many places are full of flowers! Beautiful city !!!

Boathouse

Boathouse, Amsterdam 2010
Trough the Amstel river, you get to see these particular boathouses. People can live in boathouses asking the city authorities, and once they get it, they're provided with all common services. I had the opportunity of immortalizing this one while on a boat drive over the Amstel river on my visit to Amsterdam.

Civil war

San Felipe Neri Square, Barcelona 2011
A city that started as a strategic position for the Roman empire and struggled in the Spanish civil war, show us the scars of that civil war. The bullet holes of the civil war executions are still visible on this square, and they are a reminder to the people of the awful times the city had lived...

Forest

Sagrada Familia, Barcelona 2011
I absolutely had to publish this picture... The amaizing roof of the Gaudí creation is just wonderful, I remember that when I entered the church I couldn't believe it. I think it's the most incredible construction I have ever seen. The idea was to recreate a forest, and that's exactly what it looks like. It feels like being in a deep forest where the trees are 40 meters tall. You can feel the touch of the light trough its leaves.
Incredible...

Takers

Barcelona 2011
This is a particular building in Barcelona, taken by the force by some students. They just live here even though it's not theirs. They might help the community and try to blend in the neighborhood just to avoid being kicked by the police force.

Stylish

Museo de Arte Contemporanea, Barcelona 2011
Once again, another picture from Barcelona, this one though is outside the Contemporary Arts Museum, people were just there, talking or reading or even skateboarding and rollerblading. I found this guy interesting so I had to take a picture.

Reflection

Sagrada Familia, Barcelona 2011
I loved this church, which is actually now a basilica... I had the luck to be there when the light was perfect and a lot of reflections and strange colors were created by the stained-glass windows...
If you are going to Barcelona, don't miss this incredible basilica... It's so worth it.
