Brian - That is the cooliest N* shot I've seen I think. It really gives a sense of speed to a section that is normally kinda slow (of course you might have really been going that fast :p ).

I attached some more pictures of La Sagrada Familia. The first is the towers, second is me, dad, and sister inside, and third is some of the construction.
Black noise how old are you...!?!?
I remenber the first time i saw gaudi's work watching some slides on a art history class (i was about 22, today i'm 43) i still get gussebumps when i think about it, since that day i devore whatever information I can get about his work (And also many year later made me become a profesor to help continue that sense of wondering) until two years ago when i have the oportunity to spend a few weeks riding and wondering around the beautyful city of barcelona and the sorroundings in one of this little monsters..


anyway great work on the geek deparment, maybe we can compare notes someday, since we live kind of close, actually Here are some of the pictures I took of the city and the catedral some more In here about his overall work and then some of the parque

anyway I'm glad to see such a Young person so interested on a field like this, i can tell you stories and show you theories i have about his engeniering discoveries that most people don't even think about, this guys was like Jules verne but he actually made his stuff "Fly"

I'm 16. I like Barcelona a lot, partly because of Gaudi's influence. In America you don't see a lot of huge features made by artists. I want to go back there after high school. I've pondered many a time to stop taking French and start taking Catalan.

Yeah, let's go ride and talk about art.

Man you have a bright Future in front of you, so artitulate already and interested in other things beyond Toxic Britney...

one ussually really sad things about "Intelectuals" is that they are ussually very "Contemplative" A.K.A. they don't really do much with their body and many times actually don't even do much with their minds, they kind of spend their time judging others and keeping their mouth shoot so they apear to be cool (you will see this over the years as a trade is comun ground in many cultures)

in your case you also have a Fisical life, in short you also have a body and you are not afraid to use it..

good for you..

about the Urbanistic developement and constrution methods, I kind of laugh when people speak highlly about Plywood houses and "castles" (material that in most of the world is use only for temporary structures and shipping crates and In my case a bunch of skateboard ramps) oviuslly no offence intended, i also live in one of this yeso walls houses with 2x4 every 16 inches, I quess the ultimate example is the sin city of las vegas, that is made more like a "Studio set" (with walls in the back so everybody need to pay the hotel fees) than a real city (that grows and evolve on his own over the years) even if they try to imitate every wonder of the world with their fake fauk finishes...

sorry for the offtopic rant..
