Lake @ Caviahue, Patagonia Argentina

4comments
This is the lake of Caviahue, a small and beautiful town located at the north of the Neuquen province.
I tried to wait for some boat to get a better photo, but it is not usual to see one since the water of the lake has plenty of sulfur. Read More!

14 days old

2comments
Today this little cute is 14 days old. Family and friends asked for some more images of Maite so here you have: 10 new photos. This is my favorite of the series.
You can (barely) see the mother of Maite reflected on her peaceful eyes.

About this natural light photo shoot
All of these photos were taken today (April 25th 2009) using natural (available) light indoor (I can not use a flash on her delicate eyes!) There is no post processing, just conversion from RAW and a quick border in Gimp.
Click on the images to see them at larger size. Read More!

Little baby

NO comments
La felicidad y el amor que nuestra primer hija trajo a nuestras vidas son inconmensurables, sensaciones imposibles de describir con meras palabras. Me limitaré entonces a decir que nació el día de Bahía, 11 de abril, día en que nuestro centro del universo se movió para siempre. Esta foto (Canon 40D, F/2.8) muestra el comienzo de la estrecha relación madre - hija, instinto y necesidad mutua.

Sorry, no English translation. I'm a new father... and as such I need to expend my whole time with my child! Hope you understand! ;) Read More!

Construyendo el cielo en la tierra

NO comments
No hay barrera que impida construir un mañana mejor. Es la mínima actitud necesaria para con este mundo, tan injusto, tan desigual, en donde la mayoría de la gente sólo vive. Ojalá este pequeño aporte fotográfico ayude a despertar esta actitud, ojalá la misma se impregne en la atmósfera que nos rodea.

Esta foto la mandé al concurso del diario local (www.lanueva.com) pero ni figuró en el top3, definitivamente creo que no me quieren en el diario... las que ganaron eran patéticas! Read More!

Flor de fósforo

NO comments

Vemos a este solitario fósforo soñando en convertirse en una majestuosa flor, lejos de saber que su sueño durará tan sólo una fracción de segundo. Sin embargo no todo está perdido, este perecedero instante en forma de flor habrá sido de utilidad a quien lo haya encendido.
Este fósforo fue "congelado en el tiempo" por mi cámara Canon a 1/2000 de segundo con la esperanza de que su estadio en forma de flor sea eterno.

Esta foto ganó el concurso de foto del día en www.fotorevista.com.ar (1ro de enero de 2009).
