Photographer’s Note

San Pol de Mar is a municipality in the comarca of Maresme, in the province of Barcelona, situated on the coast between Calella and Canet de Mar, in Spain.

This coastal town grew around the monastery of Sant Pau, in the tenth century. Traditionally it was a humble fishing village until the end of the nineteenth century and early twentieth. Thanks to the presence of the railway line it was discovered by the Catalan bourgeoisie and was chosen as a summer resort for its charm and proximity to Barcelona.

This small town's economy now relies on tourism.

Zebra façade of a B&W world, the most suitable presentation...
Dizzifying, nice game when you scroll the mouse :)

Excepcional grafísmo que personalmente es el estilo que más me gusta en fotografía, aunque en color tambien... saludos

Hola María,

muchas felicidades por la fotografía, cuando he ampliado he visto exactamente lo que era, que bueno! Muy buena idea el blanco y negro, y mucho mejor la idea de fotografiar esos toldos, muy bien visto!

Un abrazo,

Gemma

Hi Maria,
I first thought that I was staring at cradles! It took me a few seconds to figure out what it was. Your choice of POV is excellent in that respect!
