The Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Familia (The Holy Family Church of the Atonement) is in the background, surrounded by cranes. I photographed it from the roof of Casa Mila, known as La Pedrera (the Quarry). Both were designed by the architect, Antoni Gaudi. He started work on Sagrada Familia in 1883, and it is still under construction.
