How To Stop Dahvie Vanity

UN DIALOGO SIN PALABRAS V

Again portrait. The mystery of not getting to know ever. The author builds his characters put together the puzzle of life that has invented. She knows everything about it, but just shows a little. However, all this information distilled in the detail, the subtlety of an action, a dialogue. We recognize the character by his way of arching an eyebrow, a sigh, a silence.

The photographer notes, see the mask and see all the masks underneath. Their own as well. But that is not enough to show the complexity of a human being. Must wonder what is really what you see, what about, what's missing, what was when we looked without knowing where we were just watching.

How To Draw A Rabbit Paw Print

ULTIMAS HORAS DE LUZ

I went to visit the area, ready to shoot something without a name that escaped me the first day. In those last hours that was light and no, I wanted to capture the atmosphere around the canal. A mixture of water, quiet, tropical foliage and large vessels and slow. Something that was all that but it was not that but something else, like a little ghostly, as if everything slowed down and dense. Humidity, the sweat on the faces, the bubbles that crocodiles left up to the surface water, condensate smell the trees huddle together on the shore, the sound of cicadas, the clouds of mosquitoes, the skin stuck to the wet clothes and the sweet air and oxide suspended above the earth.

I wanted to photograph everything, but could not find how.
