Our last day in Barcelona

We have finally come to the end of Gina and Kevins trip to Paris and Barcelona. On our last day in Barcelona we finally made it to La Sagrada Familia.

When you're a street musician in Barcelona, you have to know what the people want to hear and this guy had his finger on the pulse. After all, when I think hip, accordion is the first thing that comes to mind.


Once we finally made it through the line to get in, I decided to take some shots of the exterior details. The exterior of the cathedral is like a sculpted representation of the bible. On the west facing side of La Sagrada Familia, all of the sculptures represent the end or the death and on the east facing side of the building, all of the sculptures represent the birth of Christ.








This is the crazy west facing door into the cathedral

This is inside the main hall of the cathedral looking up. The columns design is based on that of a tree and its limbs, spreading out at the top.


This is part of the east facing exterior and represents the birth of christ






After leaving Sagrada Familia we hopped on the metro to Montjuic to enjoy the views of the city and visit the castle on top.

After visiting Montjuic we headed back to the Barri Gotic to see the last standing oldest roman columns in the city.

Thanks for looking.

P.S. My buddy Trevor told me that I should consider adding print prices to the blog in the case you (the viewer) might want to purchase one. Although I'm not sure I want to have pricing in the actual blog, I would love to sell my work. So, if you see something you'd like to put on your wall, please email (kevin@ksharpphotography.com) so I can give you a price.

Thanks again,
Kevin
