what a visual treat 🙂
A very inspiring day of shooting, Joshi. Glad you enjoyed- thank you. 🙂
I have to sort my Sagrada Familia photos but they’re nowhere near as good as yours!
Hi LG- I bet they are wonderful. It’s quite an astounding place, isn’t it? They say it will be finished in about ten years…imagine. Thank for your lovely comment.
We were there many years ago and this was one of my favorite places. You’ve captured it with such a different perspective…it was like seeing it all over again. Hope you’re loving your travels!
Thanks so much, Leslee. Somehow your nice comment slipped by me.
That’s a lot of colour, shape and texture. How high is that ceiling?
Hi Allan- It is “cathedral high”. I used my 24-70mm and got good resolution with some slight cropping. Gaudi’s details are beautiful, aren’t they?
Excellent
This is indeed a masterpiece
It really is incredible to see and photograph, 365. Amazing what they have added in the past decade and what is to come!
I agree with you fully
It really is impressive
Beautiful angles… What magnificent shots!
Thanks very much, Linda!
having studied in Barcelona for 6 months, this brings back fond memories. Thank you for sharing.
I’m so glad these images brought back some fond memories, Anabell. Thank you.
What an amazing site to see~ You have captured the beauty well!
Hi Cynthia, A fascinating experience! Glad you like the details.
Fantástico reportaje fotográfico, con unos interiores muy bien conseguidos. Espectacular tu trabajo. Felicidades Jane!
Muchas gracias Jacinto . Muy apreciado!
A vision to behold … beautiful photography Jane .
Thanks very much, Poppytump. It was inspirational to shoot.
Magnificent building, beautifully portrayed in your photos
Happy you enjoyed these Pauline. What a place.
One of a kind! Your photos of the SF ceiling remind me of a photo I took in Frankfurt cathedral that I posted for symmetry 🙂
Hi Paula, Thanks! And will check our your symmetry post.
Wow! Amazing views!
It really was unbelievable, Phil. Glad you enjoyed, thanks.
Hola Jane, excelentes fotografías. Yo vivo a 500 km de Barcelona y aun no la he visto
No tengo perdón jajajaja Espero que te encuentres cómoda en mi país. Un abrazo y que disfrutes de la estancia
Hola Pepe , Me encanta tu hermoso país ! La arquitectura es fantástico , la comida es deliciosa y la gente que conocemos es amable. San Sebastián es una maravilla y estamos de visita en Bilbao , también. Gracias por su nota agradable usted. Puedo hablar un poco de español , pero tienen algo de ayuda de Google . 😉
Great work of one of my favorite buildings.
Very cordial greetings.
Thank you very much, Charly. What a marvelous experience, indeed.
Wonderful Jane!
Thanks, Mary. Quite astounding to see.
Jane, your photos do justice to what is a stunning place. I wish I could see it in person.

Hi Janet, That’s very kind, thank you. It is enormous and beautiful. I hope you see it someday soon.
Your photos do justice to the magnificence. Thank you for sharing.
Hello Maverick. Much appreciated– thank you!
I am rendered speechless. How could you shoot and gasp in wonder all at the same time? Beautiful captures, Jane.
Hi Patricia- It was a bit overwhelming and dizzying, but mostly awe-inspiring. Thank you!
The stunning ceiling shots make you feel as though you’ve entered a mermaid’s palace. Such a magical creation is surely not of the earth. You have a rare gift for allowing others to see clearly while also stimulating the imagination to capture other images in the mind. I certainly missed the aspects you captured when strolling through Gaudi’s city.
Hi Leah- Your imagination is wonderful and thank you for your very kind words. Gaudi’s organic architecture is stunning. I’m happy that I was able to capture a bit of his amazing ideas. Thanks!
The ceiling shots make you feel as though you’ve stepped into an underwater mermaid’s palace. It is too glorious a construction to be of the earth. Magnificent how you capture the detail and the imagination.
Ditto from above 😊
Work has progressed a lot since I visited five years ago. Maybe I should go back again. It is truly an architectural monument. And your photos really capture the majesty of this magnificient creation.
Hello Fernan- We were told that much of the progress has happened in the past decade and it is unbelievable what is still to come. Thank you — I hope you make it back there again soon.
Glorious photographs! Love living vicariously through one with such a beautiful eye. (actually both are beautiful 🙂 )
Thank you, Diane. Aren’t you sweet and I am happy to have you by my side. 😊
Jane, I loved yout pictures. I enjoyed Gaudi’s work when I was in Barcelona and I think your pictures really captured the fantasy that I feel when looking at or being within his buildings.
So nice to hear, Cecily and I am happy you saw it in person. It’s hard to grasp the enormity of the project and his concepts. Thank you!
So very cool!
Hi Laurie- Quite fabulous. Glad you enjoyed-thank you.
WOW!!!!
I know…isn’t it, Fran? What a sight to see. Thanks.
We loved the cathedral but were told it would never be finished. Is it?
Wonderful shots Jane, perfect choice for intricate.
Hi Tina, Thank you- happy you enjoyed these. We were told that it was planned to be finished by 2026 which is the 100th anniversary of Gaudi’s death. We shall see…
Nice pics of this amazing place. (Suzanne)
Hi Suzanne- Thank you. I am assuming you have seen it in person. Incredible.
Yes, we went to Barcelona in Feb 2013 and did spend quite a bit of time in the Sagrada Familia (our pictures here) and we also visited a number of the other Gaudi houses. We truly enjoyed it.
Well done, Suzanne!
Wow, Jane, what an amazing place. Your photos are over the top gorgeous!
You are very kind, Eliza. Thank you! Glad you like them– it was such fun to shoot.
Great pics. Brings back memories of a visit in the past.
Hi Bitsy! Glad it brought back good memories. Nice to hear from you. Thanks.

Thank you very much, Ben.

Its mind boggling, all the details and complexity. Truly a gem, great shots.
It really is astounding, Ruby, the thought process Gaudi must have gone through. True organic inspiration. Happy you liked this- thank you.

..yes that wonderful, that everything is so close here. 🙂 Looking forward to your next Euro-trip photos.
What a great idea, Gaudi was definitely the king of intricacy! Barcelona is such a beautiful city, and much of that is thanks to him!
Thank you, Laura. Agree- the other Gaudi buildings and the park are wonderful, too. Fabulous city. Glad you enjoyed these.
Oh yes the park was beautiful, really would like to go back there!
