Over the last couple of weeks, I’ve been working on the print version of the travelogue from our honeymoon in Spain and Portugal. This project has dragged on, and I’m pleased to have it nearly done. One benefit of procrastinating on this has been that my color correction skills in Photoshop have improved quite a bit. I’m going back through the photos to touch up some of them, and figured I’d share a few here. These paving stones were on the Passeig de Gracia, in Barcelona.
From one of the many market stalls on Las Ramblas in Barcelona. The flowers are dried and dyed, and packaged in paper cones. We saw these over an over in Barcelona, but nowhere else in Spain.
Also from Tavira, in the Algarve region of Portugal
Another one from Portugal, this time in Tavira, in the Algarve region. See that blue sky? It didn’t last once we got to Salema, which was the actual beach town. I have a knack for bringing rain to beach towns.
So far, my blog posts have primarily been individual shots from my archives that were not specifically part of a bigger project. This photo is from my trip to Spain and Portugal; this is in the Bairro Alto district of Lisbon. In addition to trying to put some order to my masses of negatives and slides, I’ve also been working on a hard copy version of the travelogue from this trip.
