Poverty in Barcelona: Tramp at Maremagnum

Alienated, abandoned, neglected, homeless tramps. Poverty goes with society, it has been there before and it will be there in the future, it is the byproduct of human ambition. Being different and impaired is punished with ignorance and rejection for the sake of the pack. When are we going to think and act as civilized animals instead of just animals?

Clouds over Badalona Beach

Dull skies may have a special attraction of their own which is hard to find sometimes I know. Winter is coming and nothing seems bright and cheerful, but you can always give nature a second chance and find beauty in black ominous clouds or rough gray sea. I have desaturated colors a little bit, but believe me the day was already dull. As a matter of fact this a view of Badalona beach in the outskirts of Barcelona as seen from Sant AdriĆ” Marina.

Parc del Laberint in Barcelona. I already have several posts about this romantic park situated in Horta quarter. I like those kids playing hide and seek somewhere inside the maze. I hope tomorrow or this weekend I have plenty of time for fresh topics. I must go on a tour around Barcelona soon to replenish the archives.
