Me sigue impresionando el mensaje que eres capaz de transmitir con tus fotos. No es una escalera, no son solo sombras y luces, tampoco ese recuerdo de aquellas viejas películas americanas de los cines de barrio. Es una historia del tiempo pasado y de vivencias que han quedado enredadas en esos escalones: Marcelo’s mood !!
Querido amigo, espero que encuentres ese descanso que deseas y sigamos disfrutando de tus fotos en unas semanas. Cuídate !!

  Vuestra lectura es lo que aporta el valor a mi trabajo.
  Todos tenemos una escalera interior por la que sólo unos pocos descienden voluntariamente a sus tinieblas.
  Ahora me encuentro preguntándome como Zabalita, el personaje de Conversación en la Catedral, en qué momento se jodió todo esto.
  Espero encontrar la respuesta.
  Un abrazo.

  At this point in my life I would like to say, just like the poet: “I confess that I have lived” but I cannot shake off the feeling that all I have done is to try to dispel the gloom which had settled upon me.
