Photographer’s Note

Just one more bit of Gaudi, even though this place is so well represented on TE, and elswhere on the web. I thought this view gives something a little different, being a detail, and with all the people milling around on the roof. The whole building is quite stunning, like all of this architect's work.

you really have to open up the thumbnail to see those guys on top.. or am I getting old!
Very nice architectural catch here Richard.. Gaudi is a real architect, he has done so many beautiful things.. A creator, almost a sculptor..

Hi Richard, I remember seeing this casa, and most of Gaudi's work for the very first time, I was really impressed and happy with what he has built in Barcelona.
I like this one because it's so pleasant to see people behind that window, and the lights on. It looks as the people on the roof are having a party.
Must be special to live in a house like that. I was in Vienna, I think it would be great to live in a house of Hundertwasser.
enjoy your weekend.

A very strange building indeed. You have captured the curves and details well. A nicely composed and balanced shot.

Hi, Richard,
Well done, great POV for this, and nice compo to get this detail and the people up top. Lots of interesting things to look at in this. I like Gaudi too, not too many right angles in his work, and you've shown that well here. Matt

Yes, this building is stunning, Richard. It is very surprising to see that people live in this building, it is like living in a live museum. I am sure that you took some photos of the roof sculptures and details..
Very good shot.

Hi Richard!
Good capture of this unusual piece of architecture.The people on the roof and the women behind the window are a fine extra.

wilkinsonsg (8646) 2005-04-03 4:40

Well chosen POV the people on the roof only add to the general 'weirdness' of this building :)

Good capture of this interesting building. The quality is seen in this shot. Very sharp and clear. Barcelona is in my hit list. I will note to visit this place.

oochappan (22032) 2005-04-04 5:10

Ah I missed this good detail with the people on top, even behind the window to scale this remarquable building based on the layering in earth soil.
Thanks for this one Richard
