One of the photographs of the Chinese New Year celebration in Barcelona, ??captured by Esther Moral; another of the protest of farmers with their tractors in the center of the Catalan capital, by Xavi Elias; and another image by Manel Serra of the drought in the Sau reservoir, with the canoe surrounded by land, have been chosen as the best snapshots of La Vanguardia Readers’ Photos for the month of February 2024.
Several readers shared images of the Year of the Dragon commemorations in Barcelona, ??but Esther Moral’s photography stood out because it combines tradition (hairstyle, makeup, dresses) and modernity (the use of the mobile phone) in the same scene. , at the moment when two young people are preparing for the party.
There were also several readers who shared photographs of the farmers’ protests throughout Spain, with the tractor units. But, one of those by Xavi Elias has been chosen, which captured the passage of one of the tractors along Gran Via, very close to Plaza de Catalunya, in the center of Barcelona.
The month of February has also been rich in images about the drought, many of which focused on the Sau reservoir, where the old Gothic bridge of Sant Romà is even beginning to be seen. Of all of them, Manel Serra’s photograph of the canoe surrounded by land where there used to be water has had an impact.
The photograph of the games with the dog Santa with the full wolf moon, captured by Francisco Román at the Mirador dels 40 Pins in La Roca del Vallès; the perspective of the Camp Nou bathtub in the middle of the remodeling process in the Les Corts neighborhood of Barcelona, ??taken by Alfonso Fadeuilhe, and the great expectation generated by the return of the king of the skies, the Airbus A380, on the first day of the year at the Mirador de los Aviones in El Prat de Llobregat, by Xavi Cabo, were chosen as the best images of the month of January.
