After all the sangria I drank, I'm surprised I was even able to walk, let alone walk and photograph at the same time.

I took this from the balcony of my hotel room a few hours ago. I'm really wanting to go out for some street photography tonight, but, I think one more night of good rest is probably a good idea.

# Tips and tricks on Photography will go to "revjim.net":http://revjim.net/.
# Photo of the Day entries will go [...]
