Que buena! Que fuerza tiene ese cruce de miradas que seguramente duró un suspiro pero que gracias a tu arte ha quedado inmortalizado. Esos pequeños instantes que pasan desapercibidos hasta que llega la magia de la fotografía.

  Gracias David.
  Quizás la magia de la fotografía resida en captar sensaciones y no objetos, para hacerlo no basta con mirar hay que sentir.

    A mi lo que me encanta de la fotografía es que puedes inmortalizar instantes que normalmente pasan desapercibidos en nuestra vida y después ve la gente la instantánea y dice “oh que bello” pero no se dan cuenta de que la vida es bella porque se compone de esos pequeños instantes que no nos paramos a verlos y disfrutarlos.

  You are right, sometimes is hard to distinguish between reality from fantasy.

The way the light above plays against the tow figures is very rich. And you have such smooth tomes in your photos!

a very cool shot in many ways. Love the light ; it makes such a moody pic in lovely tones. But of course also the (non) interaction. Good work !

Impresionante foto, Marcelo. Ese fondo de acero inoxidable, frio y lleno de matices en gris, le da a la escena una ambientación entre futurista y solitaria, vacía y fría.

Si hay fotos que “cuentan historias” esta es una de las más sugerentes que he visto últimamente. Las dos mujeres sentadas en el banco, alejadas entre si, sin cruzarse la mirada, excitan la imaginación del espectador con una gran fuerza.

Magistral el encuadre abierto, justo en su punto. Para mi, de las mejores de tu galería, sin duda.

  Muchas gracias Carlos por tu atenta lectura de la foto y tu gratificante comentario.
  
  Creo que todas mis fotografías están impregnadas de la misma filosofía pero entiendo que las de personas tengan una más fácil lectura o comprensión. Tú sabes perfectamente por propia experiencia cuanto de nosotros hay en los comentarios que hacemos a tus excelentes fotos.

No suelo comentar mucho pero creo que tus fotografías lo merecen.
No me sorprende ver bellas imágenes ni siquiera ver bellas imágenes técnicamente perfectas, hay mucha gente capaz de hacer eso.
Me sorprende que eres fiel a tú propio estilo, un estilo que te hace sacar fotografías que llegan al corazón porque al verlas cuentan algo.
Y es eso, por lo menos para mí, lo que diferencia una buena fotografía de una simplemente correcta.
Enhorabuena.

  Muchas gracias Hachege por tu generoso comentario al que doy un gran valor al venir de un fotógrafo cuyo trabajo admiro.
  
  Siempre he tratado la fotografía como un lenguaje a través del cual poder crear un impacto emocional en el observador que le lleve a reflexionar sobre la idea o sentimiento que quiere expresar la imagen y sea capaz de valorarla más allá del mero planteamiento técnico-estético.

      The number of modern art galleries has become so big that it is almost impossible to know all of them.
      Unfortunately I am not in holyday 😦 This photograph was made in one of my trips to London.
      Here you can see a series I made from that trip.

  Just a mirror.
  
  There is an old proverb that goes: “As you see yourself, I once saw myself, as you see me now, you´ll be seen.”
  
  In some cemeteries the first part of sentence is wrote on the entrance door and the second one on the exit door as a reminder of the fleeting nature of our existence.
  
  I always liked to talk with those wise old men who no longer expect anything from life. There is much to learn from the peaceful life of those who have realize and fully accepted our fleeting nature. The live in a permanent present without longing for the past and without worrying about the future.
