My Canon DSLR stayed at home; as is my habit when travelling on business, the tiny Domke bag with the two CLs was my outfit on this trip. So here are six images from Spain. Every neighbourhood in Seville has its daily food market. I especially like to visit them early in the morning to see the vendors setting up for the day. The main picture is a butcher at the Mercado de San Gonzalo: http://www.nathanfoto.com/paw/2004/2004_33.jpg Another of my favourite activities in Seville is...you guessed it...going to neighbourhood bars after a long day at the office. The next two images are from such bars, both with a canine subtext: http://www.nathanfoto.com/paw/2004/2004_33alt1.jpg http://www.nathanfoto.com/paw/2004/2004_33alt2.jpg Besides bars, another ubiquitous sight in Seville and other Spanish cities is the lottery vendor--playing the lottery is hugely popular in Spain. Notice the picture of Virgin Mary--another thing you see everywhere in Seville. http://www.nathanfoto.com/paw/2004/2004_33alt3.jpg Finally, the last two images were taken along the motorway A92 from Malaga to Seville. It is a beautiful drive, especially the first 100 km or so, when the road traverses some mountains and there are nice views of typical Andalusian landscapes and villages, like these two images taken near the town of Antequera: http://www.nathanfoto.com/paw/2004/2004_33alt4.jpg http://www.nathanfoto.com/paw/2004/2004_33alt5.jpg All pictures with CL on Tri-X, the first four with the 40mm Summicron, the last two with the 90mm Elmar C plus red filter.
