  3. Spanish nispero - interesting fruits and I like all the yellow "banana boats".

    And the horse riding and the shadows of the one with the man standing in front.

  5. I love the second photo... a still life. These brims, wide enough to cast a large shadow... beautiful and practical as well.

  9. The ox shadows are brilliant! Or is it oxes? And I really like the photo of the woman on the horse with a cigarette. It's so odd, but a very cool image. A great collection of photos!

  10. Thanks for your comments!
    I assume they are oxes ... they were used to pull some carriages and also the one with the image of the saint - but I am not an expert :-)
