Photographs of Hidden Spain

I have a two week vacation planned in August to Galicia, Spain to visit the hometown of my great-grandfather. Will have to add some of these small towns to our list of places to visit.

The one with the man taking a piss directly to the camera? That's Galicia ;-)

Jokes aside it's the most fascinating region in Spain, believe me. You'll enjoy.

That's very cool. It's also nice that some of those customs are still alive and kickin' in some parts of the countryside.

I'm not sure most of the pictures are recent enough.

Professional photographers haven't had an easy time protecting their work in the digital/internet age. I'm guessing you don't believe their craft has any value that can't be easily replaced by a hoards of amateurs with digital image collection devices in their pockets and crowdsourced curation. Even then, you'd have to admit that people who were making a living at this thing and were forced to abandon it by changes in technology should be afforded some consideration.
