Barcelona: Park Güell
Gaudi’s Park Güell – Barcelona While in Barcelona, we tried to visit a couple different Gaudi landmarks, and were hoping to walk around Park Güell and take some photos.

Barcelona Cathedral Revisited
Barcelona Cathedral Revisited On the road again, this time in Boston, Mass… and it was an unusually rainy and cold night so I spent the evening in my hotel room catching up on some of Matt Kloskowski‘s Lightroom and OnOne training videos I purchased last month… I somehow missed Lightroom’s inclusion of a native merge […]
