Barcelona, a photo a day

Vampires in Barcelona/ Vampires a Barcelone


Here is the story… You are a perfectly innocent passerby (are you really?), looking for nothing in particular, just walking down the Ramblas, enjoying the day.
Or maybe you are looking for a bit of excitment.
You might be new here, maybe a tourist. You’ve heard that Barcelona is a city that never sleeps.
And then this: you’re attacked by some vampires lurking on the streets or in the protection of some conveniently situated coffin.

And you smile, thinking they are just some more street entertainers.

But are they really???????????

Alors voila. Vous etes a Barcelone, vous profitez d’ une semaine de vacances bien meritees. Vous vous promenez sur les Ramblas, ne pensant a rien de special. Il fait chaud, vous devez avoir soif.

Et soudain, vous etes attaque par des vampires!
Et vous souriez, pensant qu’ ils sont des statues vivantes, communes sur les Ramblas.

Mais le sont ils vraiment?????

  7. You reminded me of my favorite movie ( Twilight and Twilight Saga: New Moon).

    Just wondering about the thing that the woman vampire is carrying, looks like it is Satan's (devil) property 🙂

    Love the new profile photo and the header, too.

    I think I've seen a similar (but not exactly the same) attraction in NYC.

    Very nice catch! Not easy to meet vampires here, only mosquitoes, and they don't look any good in pictures.

  15. «Louis» will ignore the vampires because he enjoys looking at the new photo in the masthead. He wasn't tired of the previous one, but this one is very nice, too! You really put colorful images in your masthead.
