Transparent Legs

On a busy street in Valencia, I took photos of the passing traffic under a cloudy sky lit by the setting sun. Another tourist decided they wanted to photograph the same scene and somehow failed to see me crouched near my camera. It wasn’t until his companion shouted at him to move that he obliged and moved!

Another tourist in Malaga

A tourist looks up at something unseen out of frame in Malaga, Spain.

Malaga has a huge tourist industry and is great for street photography. I think I’ve posted at least five images over the years from this very street, and have a couple more to go, too!

Friends hanging around

A group of young people sitting on a window sill down a side street. A woman and two men. They each have phones and the man on the right is speaking to someone outside the frame.

The interesting shop

Five women look in a shop call MI FLAMENCA through two separate windows at the tourist knick knacks for sale. They're maybe unaware of each other as they are separated by a corner. A postbox sits at the corner, waiting for postcards home.

Down a side street in Valencia I spotted five ladies looking in the windows of a tourist shop selling T-shirts, fridge magnets, kitchen towels, bags and all sorts of other knick-knacks.

Still Water and Blue Sky

The Museu de les Ciències Príncipe Felipe, and the water surrounding it, with the Pont l’Assut de l’Or bridge and CaixaForum in the background and clear blue skies.

One afternoon while we were in Valencia we visited the Museu de les Ciències Príncipe Felipe on hire bikes. There were huge crowds there, taking selfies and hanging around, but with a long 20-second exposure they all (mostly) disappear into a blur. In the photo above you’ll also see the Pont l’Assut de l’Or bridge and CaixaForum in the background and, of course, the clear blue sky.

Hair’s the wig shop

I wonder what was going through this woman’s mind as she looked at the wigs on display in this shop in Valencia, Spain.

The Lilac Hat on Tour

A tour group listens to their guide. Many of the people are wearing hats and one person who is one of the few people in focus in this photo is wearing a nice lilac hat that caught my attention.

A tour group in Malaga listens to a tour guide talk outside the cathedral. I liked the colour of the lilac hat in the foreground.

The afterglow of sunset

The sun has set and left behind a glowing sky and dark horizon

The sky is glowing red and orange after the sun has set, and the land and buildings in the foreground have been cast into darkness.

Hungry for Ramen

Two young men sitting on a couch, waiting to go into Buga Ramen. One holds a menu. A women looks in from the street, while signs hang on the wall, and one wall is made up of lanterns.

The very colourful Buga Ramen in Valencia is eye catching. The food is really nice there too, but you might have to wait at busy times!

The sunglasses guy

You want sunglasses? I got sunglasses. No way, it’s not too dark to wear them. You can still see everything with the street lights!

Modern dog walking

When you’re waiting for someone, your phone is handy. Unfortunately. We’re all disconnected.
