down by the sea

swam at the beach in barcelona
luckily i found a cheap waterproof disposable camera, i just had the film developed in austin









dudes were selling shit left and right...this guy was selling coconuts and making horrible noises





barcelona policia

strange prayers looming

the streets of la ramblas were always weird

some people beg for money...

and others just trade money



looking out my balcony

i never saw moons knew the meaning of the sea

my last stop was madrid, a wonderful city...i went to a bunch of art museums from old stuff to contemporary stuff.
on my last day, i was lucky i got to see an annie lebovitz exhibit full of nearly 200 original prints

these are images from my visit to the contemporary art museum, Reina Sofia



i liked this sequence of images, for some reason he reminds me of stefan janoski








i didn't realize a lot of legendary american photographers would have work displayed here, so i was super happy to see some of it









all the stick figure drawings were sick



















hilltoppers for life






patti smith


'circulation'


intricately placed eggs -- i loved this one








pressed hay









made my way to picasso land...there was a whole floor dedicated solely to his work

one of his many masterpieces, the guernica --they wouldn't let us get closer than about 10 feet









fucking famous robert capa photos everywhere! here's an article explaining the debate behind the authenticity of the photo



more of his work



these make me wish i never would have bought a digital camera

rad








things got even better when i ran into some man ray work








and of course salvador dali was a beautiful finish - 'the invisible man'



'face of the great masturbator'




i saw this restaurant walking back
