Emily
She was fun, tender and a great worker. She always greeted me with a hug y tenia una sonrisa que me encanta or a smile that enchanted me.
Now what fast-food restaurant do you go to where the worker embraces you?
She knew what I liked to eat and drink and always had my meal ready to perfection by the time I had to pay.
I loved the bocadillo con queso y bacon ... which is a bacon and cheese sandwich.
She left the restaurant for good to pursue a new line of work a year before I arrived back to the states.
She was Emily and I wish her, her new marriage and baby well if she ever googles this blog.
Hasta luego, Emily!

How to tell if he's just that into you
When I was 19, a fella named Joe took me to dinner on our first date and like all young girls, I was a nervous wreck.
I dreamed of numerous forks and spoons set on the table and would I know which one to use.
I dreamed of over eating, ordering the most expensive meal, and missing the food in my mouth.
How I wished I could be calm and serene like this couple.
They were soooo into one another.
They were at Plaça Gal-la Placidia, a cute park in the barrio de Gràcia.
They sat there for a long moment quietly talking and seriously looking into each others arm pits and their own., completely oblivious of me or anyone else at the park.
I don't know what kind of relationship they had but to me the moment was beautiful.
Caring, sharing and communicating is how I defined the picture.
We should all be so lucky!

Hope, fear or just plain tired
I took this photo from inside a steamy restaurant in a favorite plaça of mine.
It was dark with only florescent lighting illuminating the area
Contemplating whether to chose a diet coke with ice or a diet coke without ice (life is so challenging), I saw this lady walking and just about to sit down.
I got my camera ready, she sat, I took a few shots and here we are.
I photo shopped for contrast and that's it. I wanted to keep the ambiance of the moment. I chose not to crop to show her aloneness in a big space.
I hope you like the picture and that the photo evokes feelings and emotions for you as it did with me.

Lip Service
World! This is Safia, my grand-daughter, at exactly 3 months.
Yes, I know what you're thinking! I am tooo young to have children of children.
Anyway, I want to think that she was looking at me with keen interest but I fear she was giving me the slip of her tongue.
Ah ... they start so early, don't they?
Aside Note: I have a great tip for you that I've learned the past many months since I've been back to the USA. If you want to improve your street photography, just photograph children.
They are quick, suffer from attention deficit disorder and unpredictable.
Your shoots will dramatically improve.

The Death of the Western Digital 160 Gig
The Western Digital 160 Gig Passed away, peacefully, with its owner in attendance at the age of 3 years . The Western Digital will be dearly missed by its owner. It was known for its large drive capacity and affordability that drew others to its like-kind.
Most importantly, it will always be remembered by one close to it of its reliability (when it worked) and guarantee of reliability that seemed to know no limit.
Purchased in June 2006, the Western Digital was tooted as an alternative device to safely backing up your important documents and photos.
And that was exactly what the owner did. She trusted it with important text and precious, irreplaceable photographs.
The Western Digital travled far and wide. It visited various parts of the United States and Europe always bringing a sense of relief that the owner's valuables were safely secured.
Upon its demise, the external drive drove its owner into a tailspin.
Many software products were purchased on a trial basis to recapture its data but to no avail. These softwares could not read the data nor could the computer read the data.
After a few months of serious contemplation, a recovery data company called SF Bay Area Low Cost Data Recovery was commissioned to retrieve the important information which it did, much to the owner's relief.
The owner does not need to receive condolences. Rather she wishes to tell you that because of her own experience she recommends the SF Bay Area Low Cost Data Recovery whose telephone number is 510-978-6549 and whose site link is http://www.sfbayarealowcostdatarecovery.com.
Personal Note: I don't care what part of the world you are in ... look at any company and if you are in doubt try SF Bay Area Low Cost Data Recovery. The owner is accessible, reliable and honest. I endorse and recommend them.

Two different views
How could this ride-the-bull want to be cow-girl feel fear and sheer terror?
Her emotions, absolutely and under no circumstances, DID NOT circumvent my own.
(Okay! So, I am being selfish.)
You see, today was a photo-journalistic nightmare, for me!
The camera and I just didn't click at all.
Worst day ever and I can't stress that enough.
Not at all!
Quite disheartening, really.
Oh, and the courageous girl?
Well ... she fell and walked away in once piece from the tyrannical toro
And I,
I will begin again another day.
Sigh ....

Affectionately His
It was a moment in time, their time, with the hand of tenderness moving slow and rhythmically.
His head bent forward, ever so slowly ... as if he were giving thanks and feeling better.
Nothing left to say, really,
But,
A lot to see.
