    Thanks, guys. It was a productive morning for me. Right after I shot this one, I ran into a (peaceful) confrontation between political demonstrators and police, who were blocking a street. Then, about an hour later, I saw a couple of hundred cyclists riding nude through the street to protest the inadequacy of bike lanes--naked in traffic was the theme. Wish all days were like that. lol3.gif

    Maybe it is catapult ammunition for trebuchet practice. Interesting

    Thanks for commenting, everyone. It could have been promoting a local theater group, a new gym, a discotheque, just about anything, really. It was a little early in the day for partying, but in Madrid you never know.

    I assume you weren't interested in the political protest. lol3.gif

    I shot that from my terrace, which is where I was when I noticed them. I wish I had been in the plaza itself, but there was no time to get out on the street. I just grabbed my 70-200 and did the best I could. It was another WTF moment for me, as it was only later that I learned what it was about.
