Thank you for looking and commenting Philippe. Barring by a couple of
friends, the set of 60 or so went largely unremarked (2000 new hits on my
PBase galleries in 48 hrs though)!
Be sure that I would really enjoy an opportunity to spend more than four
hours or so in Paris and walking with a true countryman photographer is the
best of all (as we know with our friend Lluis). I wished for a least a week
with everyone together in Barcelona and we miss you all now that we are
home.

Cheers,
Geoff
