I haven't been there since 1981 - I arrived the night after the attempted coup, and the city was hosting a great number of soldiers with submachine guns. It was a little stressful at first.

there IS a tank in another part of the park, but I rarely see it as it isn't as interesting a subject most of the time

Barcelona is my favorite European city, though I spent only a little more than a week there. I hope it is as sweet for a resident as it is for a tourist.

better results
found a thin sheet of white plastic at the craft store and cut a piece to fit my light box - it seems to work great for diffusing

First shot at copying old slides using a diy copy stand and an old DSLR
I need to get a better light source - the array of leds in my phone show up very distinctly, but aside from that, I think we have a winner

Fungus in the woodlot
This image was shot with an old 28mm Canon FD lens adapted to my DSLR - first try at using this old lens on the newer camera.
I think I like it, even though it is manual focus.

This would be quite easy with a film camera, capturing multiple images on a single frame - does your dslr allow similar processes?
