For me Barcelona is a city which never go sleep. It's energetic place, full of happy and smiled people.
Once in the year in Barcelona is big festival called La Merche. At that time, whole city participates in parades, music session and dancing performances. For me the best part of this festival was Correfoc - parade with fire, dragons and devils. Everything to protect the holy patroness of the city La Merche. Of course in the past this parade was made for protection, now it's getting more commercial, mainly for tourists. Some of the spectators protect their bodies and faces with scarfs, but some don't care for burns - they just want to have fun and shot nice selfies.
I took those photos with my first camera and small but very useful lens - 50mm - that's why all photos are vertical - I wanted to catch whole postures on my shots.
I got my first camera in elementary school. From this time I started to watch the world through the lens. In age of 18 my parents bought me Canon 600D which I'm using till this day. Now I'm 23 years old and I still learning techniques and how show my point of view to the rest of people.
