Llama II (Lama glama)

A while ago I shared a llama, well today , I want to share three!

¿Quería más llamas?

Sound

Photography is really interesting to me, I love the many possibilities it has to offer, but for this particular photo I must say that sound is really missing. A few months back (when it was still summer), I began to hear a very strange music, it sounded like something you would find in a carnival, and after a few days trying to figure out what was the source of the music I found this marvelous seller whit a cart full of small toys.

Since then I've found a few other sellers and they are just very nice, but the music is like a mermaid's song.

Have a good week!

Comfy cat

This wasn't the photo I intended to share whit you, but since my cat decided that my backpack is her new favorite place I share with you all exhibit A

And exhibit B can be found here

I'll try not  to upload a video never again in this blog.

Have a nice week!

P.S: sorry for the late update, but this long weekend really threw me of my regular schedule

project (follow up II)

Winter is almost here, and the weather and pollution are here to prove it. Those two factor are not helping me to keep working in the project as much as I want. Any way, here is a new photo that has helped me keep alive the project.

  have a good week.

project (follow up)

I've been working on the project  I told you abut a few weeks ago, and I most say that I'm getting what I was looking for, but at least I have this photo to show to you.

Have a great week!

Cat (again)

This was not the photo I was going to share with you today, but since Boo showed so much interest in it, so why shouldn't I post it.

The photo is clearly yellow tainted due to the color of the puff (a gift from a friend) and it's Boo's new favorite spot in the house.

Have a good week!

Light

Just a quick post of a picture I took today while I was doing some other things around the house.

I'm really happy to have my tripod around.

Have a great week!

New project

Ever since I arrived at Santigo I started thinking about projects I wanted to folow, but since my tripod arrived so much latter I kind of forgot about them. This week I started taking pictures for one of them. I shall say that I'm hatting what I got, but at least I got some important feedback that should help me in the near future. Any way, since I didn't got anything I can use I´ll post this photo that shall give you a hint of what I'm working on, but honestly I doubt this will end up in the final project.

Have a good week.

long year

This past week was full of event, it marked a year since I left my home town, I got some news (not of the good kind) and also I had my birthday (if you know me you know that is not good news either).

Anyway to mark the my first year in Chile I want to share one of the very few pictures I took on the flight.

I love pictures of the clouds from above, and the blue of the sky, it's just compelling.

Impending storm

A few months ago we had an odd day, I mean, it was late summer, and we were fearing expecting the autumn to come but this was completely out of character for that time.

This was the view to the north:

And this was the view to the east (you can even see a snowed mountain at the right)

Have a good week!
and no, this picutres have not been processed , this are the JPEG of the camera.

Sea

A few weeks back we went to the beach for the weekend, just before the Fall got here. We went to Concon, a town a little north of Viña, and even tho we were supposed to be on the end of summer the wind was really cold, so it was nice to get away from Santiago, but not quite what we had in mind.

Anyway, here are a couple pictures I took from the hotel.

Have a nice week.

Spring break (or should I call it Fall break?)

During this week Felipe was in town visiting us, it was great to have a good friend around, and it was also a great excuse to re-visit some places and even to go to a few new places. One of those was the"Museo de la Memoria y los Derechos Humanos" but since they don´t allow you to take pictures inside I can only tell you that is a place worthy of your time if you ever get to be in Santiago.

The Ralli Museom on the other hand allows you to take pictures, and since I was here for a second time I was prepared to get this:

Sorry if this is not the best photos I've posted here, but light was not that good, but I hope you get to enjoy, and even be temped, to pass by Santiago to get to see some Dali sculptures (among other great things this city has to offer)

See ya.

green desert

Lately I've been using the option in windows 7 that allows you to use your photos as desktop picutres and got really obsessed with this one, so I decided to share it.

This one was taken in the north of Chile like most of the recent updates.

Have a nice week!

Moon

A couple years back I decided to give up on the moon, I mean, I love it, but honestly I don't have the telescope to take pictures of it. When in march I began to hear about the "Super Moon" I decided to give it a try (I know, I'm like three weeks late to this, but I still had to post it).

First on the 16th of February, just because it looked amazing

On the 18th of March (the day before the Super Moon)

and then again on the 19th.

 and again latter that night

I have no idea why the first one got so yellow, but I like it.

(click on the pictures to get them full size)

Have a nice week.

Llama (Lama glama)

I just wanted to share a quick update this week, so here it goes:

so, Llama week

See ya.

More desert

sorry for the late update, the SP1 really messed up my pc so I had to re-install everything this weekend and up until now I haven´t have the time to update.

For this week I planed to take pictures of the super moon, but in all the chaos the lovely software EOS Utility decided not to recognize my camera so the pictures are still on the memory card... I´ll post them when I finally get to download them, if they are still relevant and worthy.

Instead I hope you enjoy this photo.

Have a good week.

Sunset

As I told you in the last post the sunset up there was great to say the least, and here are a few photos so you can judge.

See you next week.

Flamingos (Phoenicopterus)

In the trip to the north of Chile we visited a salt lake that is over 4.000 mts above sea level, and there you can see three species of flamingos the Chilean (Phoenicopterus chilensis), the Andean (Phoenicopterus andinus) and Jame's (Phoenicoparrus jamesi) that usually isn't there that time of the year, but we got to see quite some of them.

With out further ado, here are the pictures.

Remaind me to share with you some of the pictures of the sunset that I took that day...

Great week for you all. 

Contest

The company I work for is having a photographic contest to celebrate it's first 10 years. They wanted pictures that were related to telecommunications, Latin america in motion and that showed the progress of the region. So I took a look at what I've posted here and chose 3 pictures that fit the bill, make a little bit of editing and here are the ones that I decided to send.

wish me luck!

New sunrise

A couple of weeks ago we went to the north of Chile, to the Atacama desert, and I want to share this pictures of the sunrise on a geyser site . (damn it was freezing)

expect more pictures of this trip soon.

Year end/begin

2010 was a great year for me, It had it's ups and downs but looking back it was great. Part of the downs were the last 3 weeks of the year, saying those were hectic is an understatement. It started with a business trip to Buenos Aires (sorry, no pictures, 3 day with a very tight schedule) it is always great to go back there, but it threw me out of balance and up to this date I'm still struggling to try to catch up, since then I had to close the fiscal year, try to finish 2011 budget and our parents are here visiting us.

But I also have had some time to take some photos, and here are a few:

Some Ballet

Some Nature

Something from the market (I like me some square lettuces)

South of Chile:

South of Argentina

and finally Bariloche

It was a good and looooong road trip.

Have a happy 2011!
