I want to go to Spain...

I have a very short travel list for places I want to go out of the country, but Spain and Italy are at the top. Barcelona... what a fantastic place for photography. Over at iStock there's a great article that has pictures too!

iStockphoto.com : Articles - iStock Airport: Barcelona: "has been said that Barcelona is Antoni Gaud�and his fantastically exuberant architecture, but we believe it is also the Latin and cosmopolitan character found in its everyday life. Barcelona’s passion for art and the avant-garde, the old world flavor of the narrow streets of the Barri G�tic (Gothic Quarter), the elegance of the stately promenades and avenues of L’Eixample—these combined ingredients yield a concoction that is equal parts sophistication, simplicity, antiquity, and modernity. From its super sleek designer bars to its more humble taverns and restaurants, Barcelona is a noisy, bustling, ethnically diverse city that remains steadfastly tied to its traditions and customs, its own language, and to a philosophy of life that is refreshingly tolerant and open-minded.
