First batch of the Barcelona photos... yes yes, I've been lazy.

Living statues are people - street performers - who dress up, often as historical or popular figures, and stand in tourist-frequented places and act like statues. They'll only move when somebody drops a coin in their collection box / hat / whatever. Some I saw were badly done, but there were several brilliant ones.

And this guy in particular has been doing the same thing for years. He even has a website. I recall him from when I first went to Barcelona, on a school trip. (If I can find them again, after all these years, I'll scan some of the photos I took then.)
