Photographer's Note
I took this picture in one of the most important places of the city, Barcelona... Well, really I took it in the most important: its beach.
Those days I was a young and handsome boy who was working and living in Barcelona and one day I was on the beach. It was late. I was there with my tripod (sorry, I never forget it).
Suddenly I saw these girls and I thought it could be a nice picture. I saw the photo with the street lights, with the dark light on the sky, with the girls and their silhouettes and with the shapes of Colσn (the statue fingering America -not really-) and the other building (for a long time, the higher of Barcelona).
I like how it works. What do you think?
I hope you like it.
PD: nowadays I am a young and handsome boy who is living and working in Cocoland
PD: Barna is, as BCN or Carcelona, some of the ways we call Barcelona (I'm not sure Carcelona is one of the names, but I've seen written it in some walls by Anarchists)

I love this hazy and texturised colour work carlos. You have composed it well and have shown deftness in handling the situation

No estα mal la foto, pero una mayor nitidez sobre las dos chicas, hubiera quedado mejor. Me gusta sin embargo por su composiciσn y la inclusiσn del monumento a Colσn y la Torre, dos iconos de la Barcelona “setentaρera”.
Un saludo.

Hello Carlos
I think you used slow shutter (1/2) internationally, that effect makes this photo very poetic one. Good Job !
Best regards and many thanks for sharing

I like the composition with Columbus and the tower block in the background and I like the colour tones and the way the girls' hair is rimmed by the backlight. However you know me by now, and I would like to see more sharpness. Unless you were able to get the girls to sit still I'm not sure how you could have improved it, because the slight out-of-focus of the background elements probably works quite well. If you had used a smaller aperture to give you a greater DOF the girls would have to sit still even longer and anyway the atmosphere wouldn't be as good. I suppose you could have put the ISO up to be able to increase the speed at the risk of noise. A difficult one to get right I think, although plenty of people like it just fine. :D

Ciao Carlos,
mi piace molto questa composizione e quest'atmosfera che sei riuscito a creare. In certi casi, come in questo, lo sfuocato riesce a rendere l'immagine molto piω misteriosa ed affascinante, bravo.
Ottimo lavoro.
Un caro saluto dalla Sicilia.

Hello Carlos,
I like a lot the mood in this one !
Colors, and your balanced compo are very good too.
Makes me wish I can go back to Barcerlona... Perhaps in May...
Have a nice day,
JB.

Hola Carlos,
Me gusta la composiciσn y el color, pero no me convence el desenfoque, mαs que nada porque no veo nada con gran nitidez en esta foto. Tu lo sabes hacer mejor.
Un abrazo,
Charo
