Glimpses

You probably have heard of Barcelona, the capital city of Catalonia located on the east coast of Spain, facing the  Mediterranean Sea.  Fewer know about Flin Flon, a northern Manitoban mining community in Canada.  It’s much smaller than Barcelona but not without its appeal.  Part of the intention of all this is to have a glimpse at the two cultures, to see what they share and how they might approach things differently.  Of course climate, resources and history are major influences, but both are strongly affected by advances in technology and current trends.  No culture is unchanging in this regard and what may have been considered familiar and normal ten years ago could be quite different nowadays.  The photos will have a look at some of those elements.
