Subject: [Leica] Nathan's PAW 8: Madrid

Since I have been travelling the past couple of weekends, I spent this 
one going through lots of images from earlier in February, so in the 
interest of full disclosure, these pictures were taken when I was in 
Madrid a couple of weeks ago.

When I travel to familiar places, I try to get images that are different 
from the "standard" views. Here are a couple from the Royal Palace, 
which I hope accomplish that. First, the big area in front of the palace 
invites skateboarders:

The palace as seen (barely) through the gate:

A couple says goodbye in front of the Sol metro station:

The last three are from what is likely the most photographed spot in 
Madrid, Plaza Mayor. Entering the plaza through one of the many gates:

One of the many artists who sell their work to tourists:
