And we look at films, read books and sing songs wishing that our lives were as good as those, when it actually is. It's just not a combination of shots with a beautiful BSO and well-written dialogue, it's not a flashback or a good plot with perfect characters... but when you find out that what you have is better that the films, louder than the songs and less fictional than books is when you are prepared to truly love.

Y vemos las películas, leemos libros y cantamos canciones esperando que nuestras vidas fuesen tan buenas como aquellas, cuando lo es en realidad. Simplemente no es una combinación de planos con una banda sonora bonita y un diálogo bien escrito, no es un flashback o un buen guión con personajes perfectos... pero cuando te das cuenta de que lo que tienes es mejor que las películas, más alto que las canciones y menos ficticio que los libros es cuando estás preparado para amar.

It’s been ages since I picked up the camera just for the pleasure of it:          I decided it was the right time, the right light and after a day of stress and amusement I took some self portraits that are quite different from my normal work, but that I like nonetheless. That is photography for me: To want to do it and not to feel pressured for it. To feel the picture and grow with every shot.

Hace años desde que cogía la cámara simplemente por placer: Decidí que era la ocasión correcta, la luz correcta después de un día de estrés y entretenimiento saqué algunos autoretratos que son bastante diferentes de mi trabajo normal, pero que sin embargo me gusta. Eso es la fotografía para mi: Querer hacerlo y no sentirme presionado por ello. Sentir la foto y crecer con cada toma.

Tonight I wanted to share some thoughts exclusively to my blog. Because I just felt like, so here I am.

I'm liking this Summer, it's being nice and amazing to disconnect and connect with new experiences and feelings. I moved and I've never travelled so frequently on bus as well as I've never walked that much on a daily routine. And in moments like this, when I'm about to edit some pictures I decided to take after I arrived home from having spent the whole day with my friends, knowing that tomorrow a lovely Sunday awaits with my dearly beloved I find out that life shouldn't be that hard. 

Everyone knows that these moments are special, when you are alone by yourself but you feel fulfilled by your past and future while your present is just fine.

And I'm thankful for that.

Summertime

''The photographer and the photographed'

Summer has started some weeks ago and even though I didn't have time or energy after this first university year, I always feel as if I need to take pictures, to upload my blog, to record videos... But sometimes in our lives even though you're passionate about something, you don't actually feel like doing it because your mind is somewhere else, seeking for peace and quietness.  That doesn't mean I'm not into photography, I'm in love with this as I've always been. I just need to relax and charge my inner battery.
