I’m just re-surfacing after a week and a half of pressing deadlines… made more pressing by having spent the previous week taking it easy in sunny Spain! Quality time spent with friends in Zaragoza and enjoying waves of great music together at the Primavera Sound festival in Barcelona, it was a week filled with…
Garlicky-shroomy-pintxos-goodness
and barflies.
Technicoloured…
graffiti.
Solar power
and shade gratefully received.
The world’s smallest dog?…
… and the smiliest dog?
Good music…
…good for the soul (pictured: Lichens & Low, 27 May on the ATP stage).
Mass protest for social change…
… ‘Yes, We Camp’ (well, not us… but a LOT of committed Spaniards).
Exploring new places
and being treated to beautiful, aurora-like sunsets.
Mediterranean blues
and a thousand other colours.
In the words of Phosphorescent‘s Matthew Houck (who got our gig-going on the 4th day of the festival off to a great start, evening sun shining, cold beers in hand): “here’s to taking it easy”.
More Spain pics to follow soon… the light!, the colour!, the textures!, the street art! :)

I’m late to this comment! Sounds like a really wonderful time! Here’s to solar power! (The kind that tans, warms and relaxes…..) Never been to Spain, seems appropriate somehow that their grafitti is even classier than anywhere else. They seem to be setting the style example for the rest of the world to follow these days!

Your photos are colorful and magical. I like how you blend them with your story. We’re planning a trip to Barcelona soon.
