Here is a close up view that T took with the telephoto lens fully extended. The tenth level is the observatijon deck according to Wikipedia. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torre_de_Collserola)
This tower is one of the first things you see in Barcelona. However, in my case, it took me by surprise. It was raining, so I had it in my mind to drive up the mountain and visit the Sagrat Cor church. However, the clouds created a thick blanket of fog, and it was difficult to see more than a hundred feet. As I stood outside the church, the clouds began to thin, and the tower appeared rather dramatically. The tower sits atop the Tibidabo mountain and overlooks Barcelona. If I had Googled it, I would have known that it's open to the public on weekends — something to add to my next visit.
Lately, we have been getting a lot of rain. When that happens, it usually means you can count one thing, a sky full of colors in the evening. When I took this image, I didn't realize children were in the picture until later. I was too busy making sure I didn't drop the camera in the water. In any case, it was a lucky happenstance caused by the wide-angle of the lens. All good things are fleeting and come to an end. But taking photos is a passion for me, partly because it saves a moment to re-experience later. Pictures like this are memory pills that cause neurons to fire, bringing back moments, and sometimes surprises.
