Acid fluids

This (small) waterfall is dedicated to Mónica. This image is from our last vacations at Caviahue, a magical place with these black rocks! The water is acidified by volcanic fluids from Copahue volcano, the sulfuric smell is horrible but who cares, if you can have these views! :) Read More!

Dancing in the Dark

11comments
candle smokeThis image is dedicated to Victor, who asked for a dark shot... i think he mentioned he likes candle shots, so here you have my friend. This image is Much easier to obtain than this one...

Main tips to get this shot
1) Use a black fabric as backdrop (or something that doesn't refleclect light).
2) Focus (manually!) on the smoke.
3) Use an external light/flash located behind and at some side of the scene (avoiding entering light on your frame).
4) Try with different camera settings!

EXIF. ISO: 200, Exposure: 1/100 sec, Aperture: 5.6, Focal Length: 50mm, Flash Used: Yes. Post-processing: PS. Read More!

As you can see I have a new template on my blog, hope you like it... To tell the truth I made a mistake and deleted the previous one so I needed to prepare something! :)
I've started to work on this new one, but as you can see there is a lot to do... eventually everything will work again.
Ok, this is a photo related blog (nor an HTML/CSS blog) so let's focus on this image, dedicated to my friend Marcela. As you can see this is a long exposition image, here you have the tech details.

Countryside

8comments
campo“I roamed the countryside searching for answers to things I did not understand. Why thunder lasts longer than that which causes it, and why immediately on its creation the lightning becomes visible to the eye while thunder requires time to travel. How the various circles of water form around the spot which has been struck by a stone and why a bird sustains itself in the air. These questions and other strange phenomena engaged my thought throughout my life.”
Da Vinci, Leonardo

If you still have landscapes lake this around go there and enjoy it... while it lasts:

“Wildness and silence disappeared from the countryside, sweetness fell from the air, not because anyone wished them to vanish or fall but because throughways had to floor the meadows with cement to carry the automobiles which advancing technology produced.”

To be always calm

... i wanted to share another calm image. Inspired in a comment from Haidée about my previous post.

“The secret of success is to be in harmony with existence, to be always calm to let each wave of life wash us a little farther up the shore.”

Two more sunsets...

9comments
Well, we all love sunsets (and sunrises). They make peaceful landscapes able to transport us to those places so we can almost smell the surrounding nature!
That's why i'm posting two different sunsets, hope you like them.

River & Forest

River sunset
Sea & Beach

Beach sunset... but I'm not sure which one i would choose, how about you? :)

And now a Jawaharlal Nehru (Indian Prime Minister. 1889-1964) quote i like:
“Peace is not a relationship of nations. It is a condition of mind brought about by a serenity of soul. Peace is not merely the absence of war. It is also a state of mind. Lasting peace can come only to peaceful people.” Read More!

G-oldie Ponte Veccio

4comments
Ponte VeccioThe Ponte Vecchio (Italian for "Old Bridge") is a Medieval bridge over the Arno River, in Florence, Italy, noted for still having shops built along it, as was once common. Butchers initially occupied the shops; the present tenants are jewelers, art dealers and souvenir sellers... and since there are a lot of jewels on this bridge I've choosed this golden tone.
This image is dedicated to Antonio Turi-Immagini, a great photographer from Italy I've discovered today. Read More!

Peruvian flea market

Sadly I don't remember the name of this small town (Chinchero?) which is part of the Sacred Valley of Cusco... But I remember that even when it was a bit rainy the light was great.
At the bottom of the image you can see some persons escaping from the rain while others get ready to sell raincoats to the tourists! :) Read More!
