Nice shots. How do you like your Samyang? I have tried their 85mm and was very impressed. I was wondering if you have ever compared the Samyang 14mm to the equivalent Pentax lengths?

I bet that Jamon was good! I need to go to spain. Great shots, as usual.

Thank you. One of my favorite lenses. Check out my review, where I compare it to the Sigma 10-20 (haven't had the chance to try the DA 15mm): Samyang 14mm F2.8 ED AS IF UMC Lens Reviews - Samyang Lenses - Pentax Lens Review Database

Your comment is much appreciated (as usual)! Oh, the jamon was fantastic--we might have had too much of it

Almost all our meals included jamon--we couldn't oppose resistance to the damn jamon. I need to go back to Spain. Terrific country, with plenty of places I haven't seen.

Thanks for the link! Nice review of the lens as well. Samyang deserves respect as they really are putting out some nice lenses. I myself am excited about the 24mm T/S. As for wide, I use the Sigma 8-16mm (awesome, by the way) but would like to try one of these 14mm pieces if I see one around as it would work for film. For some reason I cannot seem to find them here in Japan.

#4 is an interesting building - would be interested to know more about it (even just if you can remember the address to give me a lead).

Thanks for posting, my wife and I will be in Barcelona in April and really looking forward to it. A city with great architecture.

Make sure you get to Park Guell in the foothills of Barcelona - Gaudi's attempt at a sustainable property development. Great area to walk around and plenty of photo opportunities.

Nice captures ... reminds me of when I went to Barcelona ... got to back there sometime, J

It's on Avinguda Diagonal. I was coming from Placa de Francesc Macia, and it's on the left side, not far from this Placa. Av. Diagonal is a great boulevard, worth seeing from Frances Macia to Gaudi's Cathedral.

Thank you. Barcelona is perhaps the city for architecture. Most buildings have something impressive. In case you missed my two other threads:

I'll post a set with Park Guell soon, after one or two more street architecture threads

An amazing city, almost something different around every corner, great shots well seen and taken.
