Street artists in Las Ramblas :

La Rambla or Les Rambles is the most famous street in Barcelona.
The wide boulevard connects the Plaça de Catalunya, a busy square, to the Monument a Colom, a tall column erected in honor of Christoffel Columbus.
The often crowded street is popular with tourists and locals alike.
The middle part of the Rambla is pedestrianized and bordered by trees. Kiosks, flower stalls, animal stalls and street artists are in abundance here. Traffic passes on either side of the pedestrian area.
The Rambla was originally a small stream flowing just outside the city walls. In the 16th century convents and a university were built along the river.
In the 19th century the city wall was torn down and buildings were erected along the now dried up river. The original buildings were torn down but they are remembered in some of the names of the five different parts of the Rambla. Even though it is one continuous street, it actually consists of five 'ramblas'.

Sylvie
Je ne l'avais jamais vu celui là;
en tous tu as réussi son portrait, tu peux être fier de toi. la commpo est impécc. Décallée sur la gauche alors que le regard est orienté vers la droite (comme de le sens de lecture occidentale).
C'est juste un peu froid comme coloration, couleur papier mouillé en somme :o)
Bravo
Pascal

Oh..wonderful capture Sylvie :) Love your image and a very informative note too! The colors are great since the «caracters» here merge with the surronding environment in a wonderful way. Great job :)

Bon, c'est la rue que j'ai vue dans le reportage et dont tu m'as parlé. On voyait le monument à la place centrale aussi. Très belle photo ou tout s'agence et s'équilibre, les couleurs et les tons, la composition de l'image. Et une profondeur de champ très prenante. Bravo vraiment!

Very funny, I do not remember these. Very good perspective, and thanks for sharing!

ah ah sylvie, je retrouve un mime, un que j'ai déjà vu ... où sont tous les autres :-))
