Photography trip to Spain — every frame a gift

I came to Spain specifically for photography and the country delivered material at every turn. Plaza Mayor at dawn was everything I'd hoped. San Sebastián's streets at dusk are an endless source of light and texture. The people, once comfortable with a camera, are extraordinary subjects.

vibrant nightlife gave me some of my favourite images of the year. The only practical note: siesta closures — plan around it. Otherwise this is a photographer's dream. I've rarely come home with so much usable material from a single trip.
