    Thanks very much, for your help and suggestions, I should have pointed out that this is not going to be a deep study/photographic essay exploring the identity of Spain or Spanishness, merely a project for a product owned by an English company, the products origins lay in Spain, but is going to be aimed at English printers/specifiers!

    I had already presented two routes exploring the sensory aspects of the paper and how it holds colour which have been rejected by the client on the basis that both routes were too design-led (aimed more at designers) and printers wouldn't get it, and after a long drawn out meeting it was decided we should look at the Country of origin however the client (the client being English, not Spanish) is driving this route, and after hearing... Flamenco, Bull Fighting, Wine used as things they think of when thinking of Spain, I nearly started crying, Like I said I know very little about Spanish culture, and was looking for something as far away from the obvious stereotypes, but interesting, visual, colourful yet still only scratching the surface, as time is well and truly against me and I don't have any where near the time it would take to research properly to do something worth of the great nation!

    Thanks again.
