live is life

Sunshine, coffees, ice cream for dinner, talking photography with strangers, museums, shopping with the teenager, flamenco, bulls, sushi, napping in the Retiro, old projects, new projects, seeing Madrid like it was the first time again... Thank you Elis!

I´m taking a little break. We have graduations, family visiting, and a few small trips coming up. Sending you a big hug from Sara and me! 

P.S. Ever since I met Elis I´ve had that song in my head... :)

The photo of a guy in a pink shirt in front of a cheese shop or a delicatessen - great live moment captured by the lens. You would think that they guy was stylized in a pink shirt on purpose to match the background :-). Enjoy your break!

Unas fotografías muy bellas.
La tercera es tan poética, sugiere un encuentro entre amantes, un café del que nace una historia de amor.
Un abrazo.

beautiful images. I like the sign "posada del peine" the Comb Inn.
I could sit all day and sip coffee while watching the people walk by.

Oh, I lived for a year in Calle Toledo, the street of your first picture! I loved so much passing through the Plaza Mayor and then down the arcade, on the way back home. Go and have some croissant a la plancha en el cafe Lorena, plaza de la Cebada, o un manchadito en un viejo cafe "cursi/cutre" de la calle del pez. Also a nap in the parque del templo de Debod..
Your pics are so so great
