I like this composition with the Besòs thermal power plant, and the Tres Xemeneies which give an industrial touch to the Barcelona skyline.
Some places are easy to identify at first glance. It is the case of the small town of Montcada i Reixac with its cement factory which can be seen from miles away.
Today’s photopainting represents a typical street of the Les Roquetes neighborhood.
