La Sombra del Viento
Carrer del Bisbe Irurita

Pequeño homenaje a un gran escritor, Carlos Ruiz Zafón

El puente de la calle del Bisbe que une la Generalitat con la casa dels Canonges es una de las postales de Barcelona. No hay turista que no se lleve una fotografía de la pasarela, uno de los iconos del Barri Gòtic. Y eso, a pesar de que el puente no tiene ni cien años de existencia. En efecto, fue uno de los elementos añadidos en la década de los 20 del siglo XX durante la rehabilitación del centro histórico de la ciudad.

Hacer fotos de este rincón no es tarea fácil, o al menos a mi no me lo pareció. Todo y que es una de las fotografías más famosas de Barcelona.


The Shadow of the Wind

Small tribute to a great writer, Carlos Ruiz Zafón

The Calle Bisbe bridge that links the Generalitat with the Casa dels Canonges is one of the most famous postcards of Barcelona. There is no tourist who does not take a photograph of the walkway, one of the icons of the Barri Gòtic. And that, despite the fact that the bridge is not even 100 years old. Indeed, it was one of the elements added in the 1920s during the rehabilitation of the city's historic center.

Taking photos of this corner is not an easy task, or at least it did not seem so to me. Although it is one of the most famous pictures of Barcelona.

This is a Mas Tinell winery building located at Vilafranca del Penedes, Catalonia. It is a special building which features innovative architecture and an amazing structure resembling a collection of stacked wine bottles with a Gaudí-esque, mosaic-tiled roof.

Both my son and I signed this shot. It was a pleasure to explain to my son -a 10 years old child- the technic for long exposure shots with filter and hdr long exposure shots.

When the sun reaches the paradise (HDR Version)

When the sun reaches paradise.

This HDR long exposition shot (4s-1s-16s) has been processed with the new pipeline suggested with the arrival of Darktable 3.2, being used Enfuse for the HDR blending.

So after getting the HDR Canvas, in a first stage were applied plugins like White Balance, Denoise modules, Lens correction, Tone Equalizer (with additional help with Lowpass filter), Haze Removal, Local Contrast, Contrast Equalizer, and RGBFilmic (v4) with "Linear Rec2020 RGB" profile. In a second stage were applied color adjustments with Velvia and Local contrast with "Abobe RGB Profile".

Finally, an Orton effect was applied with a blur only on the far tree behind the scene.

A Haida ND 1,8 filter was needed.

Sagrada Família at Night, Barcelona Spain
Barcelona - Sagrada Familia
by Yi Jiang

The Sagrada Familia was designed by Antoni Gaudí (1852–1926), who worked on the project from 1883 and devoted the last 15 years of his life entirely to the endeavor. In 1882, prior to Gaudí's involvement, Francesc del Villar was commissioned to design a church on the site. He resigned a year later and Gaudí was appointed the project architect, redesigning the project entirely. The project is scheduled to be completed in 2026. 西班牙巴赛罗纳著名的圣家族大教堂

by Fer_SG

Views from 'El Castellot', in Castellvi de la Marca, Alt Penedès.

This panorama is made up of three landscape shots in autobraking (0Ev; -2Ev; +2Ev). It was processed with Enfuse for getting three HDR canvas, and with Hugin for blending the panorama, and with Darktable 3.4 for the general treatment from raw until the final version.

Most of the job was done as scene-referred with "Linear Rec2020 RGB". In the first stage (the scene-referred one) were applied plugins like White Balance, Calibration Color for WB, many Calibration Color for color and contrast adjustments, Denoise modules, Lens correction, Tone Equalizer, Contrast Equalizer, Local Contrast, and RGBFilmic (v4). In a second stage (the display-referred one) specific saturation adjustments with Color Balance and a personalized Orton effect was applied with a gradual blur from the foreground area to the background area. Finally, a little frame was applied.

After, It was processed with Darktable creating the basic canvas for AdobeRGB with the Logarithmic option for Unbreak input profile. Then, additional plugins like Tone Curve, Highpass filters (not water), Local contrast (not water), Lowpass filters, Haze removal, some denoise plugins, and others were applied.

Casa Batlò (Barcellona)
Casa Battlò interiors, Barcelona
by Salvatore Petrantoni

Il lampadario di una delle stanze principale della casa più famosa di Barcellona, merita una visita. La Casa Batlló (in catalano [bəʎ'ʎo, bəd'ʎo]) è un'opera del celebre architetto Antoni Gaudí che sorge a Barcellona, in Spagna al civico 43 del Passeig de Gràcia. Considerata una delle sue creazioni più originali, l'edificio è stato dichiarato, nel 2005, patrimonio dell'umanità dell'UNESCO.

Nel 1904 Batllò, altolocato industriale del settore tessile, affidò a Gaudi l'incarico di rimettere a nuovo un modesto palazzo acquistato l'anno precedente sul Passeig de Shehar, l'arteria principale del quartiere modernista dell'Eixample, zona eletta dalla borghesia catalana dell'epoca quale sede dei propri spettacolari palazzi. La costruzione originale era uno spazio molto stretto e allungato e dalla forma rettangolare, che rappresentava sicuramente una sfida per l'architetto catalano.

Il lavoro di Gaudi, completato nel 1907, modificò notevolmente l'aspetto dell'edificio, rivoluzionando la facciata principale, ampliando il cortile centrale ed elevando due piani inesistenti nella costruzione originale. Al piano terreno sorgevano le scuderie, destinate successivamente a magazzini, e l'androne comune. Il primo piano del palazzo, il cosiddetto piano nobile, fu destinato ad abitazione della famiglia Batlló mentre negli altri quattro piani furono ricavati otto appartamenti destinati all'affitto.

Las Torres de acceso al recinto de la Exposición de 1929, más conocidas como torres venecianas, son dos torres gemelas, de carácter ornamental, situadas en la intersección de la avenida de la Reina María Cristina con la plaza de España de Barcelona. Su denominación popular se debe a su similitud con el campanile de San Marcos de Venecia.

Obra de Ramon Reventós, fueron construidas como acceso al recinto de la Exposición Internacional de Barcelona de 1929; actualmente, hacen lo propio con el recinto de Montjuïc de Fira Barcelona.

Están inscritas como Bien Cultural de Interés Local (BCIL) en el Inventario del Patrimonio Arquitectónico de Cataluña, con el código 08019/1758.

De planta cuadrada, las torres tienen una altura de 47 metros, que se divide en cuatro secciones: la base de sillares de piedra artificial, el fuste de ladrillo caravista y una galería superior, formada por columnas de piedra artificial, sobre las que descansa la cubierta en pabellón de cobre.
