The architect Josep Fontseré urbanized land that were free to demolish the fortress that oppressed Barcelona after losing the War of Succession in 1714. During the last twenty years of the nineteenth century a number of buildings were built in a unitary and eclectic style. Its most prominent feature is the arched porches round spot. This photograph is a view of the porches from within.

The shadows are so important in a picture as solid elements that have been photographed, and that’s why you have to see them and look.

Hello, my name is Charly and I was born in Barcelona, Spain, in 1956. Currently I live in El Masnou, near Barcelona, located by the Mediterranean Sea.

When I was twelve, somebody gave me a Kodak Brownie Fiesta’s camera, and immediately photography fascinated me. As soon as I made some money, I bought a 35mm SLR, Petri brand, and since then, I have gone through medium format, large format camera, black and white laboratory, and currently undergoing a hard adaptation process to digital photography. Now I’m using a Nikon D600.

For me photography is a passion, I need to take pictures constantly, but I cannot explain why. I like precision and seek the highest quality in my power. I print my pictures 40×60 cm, and I make my own photographic paper.
