    Hi Richard, took me a while to work it out - love the composition and colours.

    Cheers, Richard.

    You have a pretty unique technique with the whole reflection thing.

    Good eye!

    Yeah, I think Spaniards would find it easier to recognize whole hams hanging in a window. I haven't seen that very often elsewhere.

    You have to learn to disconnect your brain--which wants to focus on either on the contents of a display window or the reflection in the glass, but not both--and see like the like the camera does. It takes some practice, but it helps to be brainless to begin with mwink.gif.

    Richard, are these turkeys? Is this a butcher shop across from apartment building with bill board to top? I see coat hangers right below the turkeys. I want to let you know....I am certified-brainless....but still can't figure this one out.

    I believe those are Serrano hams, maybe even "Pata negra"...

    Yep, whole smoked hams, not turkeys. Expensive and very popular in Spain. TBH, I don't recall what the blue patch at the top was, but a billboard or perhaps a tarp covering construction on the reflected building make sense.
