ENGLISHThis month has gone by faster than usual.These photos are a summary of the outings I've had, and fortunately, I've had my camera to capture unique moments.They are also a reminder of the times I decide to do something different because being on the computer all day is counterproductive, even though we believe that the more we work, the more productive we are.
The gifts, celebration, and sharing have arrived.Shopping in the city center doesn't wait, nor do the lines.In the store aisles, they call you 'my love,' and invite you in to see the prices.Though the music from the big speakers makes it hard to hear the salespeople.
ENGLISHOne of my favorite times to take outdoor photos is five in the afternoon. Not only because the light is softer, and my skin appreciates it, but because the volume of the shadows is much more pronounced, giving the image not just a more aesthetic look, but also helping to add to the narrative.
ENGLISHI think of photography and visualize it as a lifestyle. I would like it to stop being a hobby, but then I think that in the short term it is impossible to make money.Then I look at my photographs (not all of them), and I think that it is possible to do something interesting, but it requires time, patience, and perseverance.
When people tell me that everything is photographable or that any moment is ideal for capturing, I don't quite agree.Today, something strange happened.I went out with my camera in hand, ready to photograph some streets, but when I got there, I just didn't feel comfortable.
ENGLISHI like finding meaning through the image. And I don't mean discovering meanings, but rather using the signifier to recreate reality.I like it to be captured, and even if it is manipulated, my intention is not that, but quite the opposite: to get as close as possible to make it as similar as possible to the truth.
