On behalf of the Ramblas Cowboy, that famous human statue in the renown Barcelona street, we want to wish you all a Happy 2010. He is not my acquaintance, but I am sure he can back me up in this one cause judging by the warm smile he always wears he must be a great guy. I woke up today thinking on catching up his figure against Christmas lights. It came out different but in the end I am happy I walked down to Las Ramblas and enjoyed the good mood everyone was sharing by the end of 2009. All the best!

ReplyDeleteWe got cowboys in Texas too! However, we don't have a Barcelona. If we did Texas would be perfect... Happy 2010!!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely sensational shot, Carlos. Congratulations on continuing your wonderful blog and Feliz Ano Nuevo to you!
ReplyDelete-Real he is. They move when someone drops a coin thus the gesture. I wish I could have caught the face as well but then I would have missed the lights. Besides, the background to the left was ugly. Thanks Rambling Round
ReplyDelete-Thanks William. Yep the color gives it some kind of glamor. Lucky I had this incandescent light from the stand behind me.
-Yeah in the most pure John Wayne style. Thanks Leif.
-Thanks Nick
-LOL that's right Julio!
