I particularly like the reactions caught in the restaurant, and the ballet dancer against the bullets. Madrid is a marvellous city, and I haven't spent enough time there - just a half day either side of a night in 2019. Maybe I'll go in October when the flamethrowers should be turned down a bit. I can no longer hack heat.
