Las Fotos que Atesoramos

Diana PhotoLas fotos mas atesoradas y que más queremos ocultar, normalmente cobran un valor increible, el valor de lo prohibído, no sabemos realmente si es por la intimidad que muestran o por que revelan la humanidad y simpleza de alguien, que a pesar de pertenecer a una élite no es más que otro ser humano en el mundo. Son estas imágenes que muestran nuestra fragilidad y vulnerabilidad las que controlamos con más cuidado. Qué tipo de imágenes atesoramos?

Some exciting things about photographing Barcelona

a big opportunity to enjoy travel photography

A family afternoon with the Brauners

at the Augustus temple, downtown Barcelona

Erin contacted us trough our website a couple of weeks ago. She was interested in an activity related to photography for her daughters while they stayed in Barcelona. She has two teenage girls one into fashion and the other one into photography, really eager to explore the city and a thirteen year old son. They got a 4 hour Photocircuit for the whole family.

We picked them up at their hotel by the sea, and walked to reach the Ciutadella Park, one of the greener spots in town then we went into the Borne quarter and  explored streets and for the first time many small shops.

As we walked along the city, from the beach to the historical walled area, we  explained tips and concepts about the camera, composition, sequences, light and movement to the girls. both using good cameras , one of them a reflex and the other one a digital compact one, but both very handy at the time of shooting.

We certainly enjoyed the day sharing a great conversation and images under the barcelona sun.

Picturing the Ciutadella Park on a sunny Market day

It was Sunday of course, and Alejandra and her friend wanted to enjoy a typical Barcelonian Sunday, so they decided to take the ciutadella park circuit. This a perfect sunny sunday where the park gets filled with amazing people enjoying themselves, children, dogs, picnics and music.

markets happen not very often here but this time it provided a perfect scenery to explore high and low speed, sing the flash under the sun and learning about long and short distance portrait. we were lucky most people where friendly and relaxed about it. Alejandras camera was pretty small and compact but for the day we took the best of.

Now she is willing to buy a new one since now she really knows, she enjoys taking pictures in sunny days.

Picturing Botero´s Big Cat

Downtown Barcelona is a neverending story

Downtown Barcelona is a place you could visit as many times as you like and will always be full of surprises.

Architecture is the first thing you will be amazed about, hundreds of amazing buildings from different times and styles will catch your eye one after another. from Passeig de Gracia to Via Laietana, to the Roman Walls, to El Raval, you may get a neckache looking up. Quite enjoyable, downtown architecture reveals part of the history, the lifestyle and the stories behind the windows.

Then comes people.

Barcelona has become a multicultural city where you can find locals from anywhere. Sometimes it becomes difficult to know who lives there and who is visiting. All races, all nationalities and most of all mixes This magic city has attracted Latinamericans, Germans, Chinese, Brits, french, Arabs, Italians, Americans, and people from Africa and the rest of the Mediterranean. You can find surprising couples and groups of friends, amazing hairstyles, tatoos, clothing and music in the local cafés.

And after that then come the shops, the restaurants and the landmarks….I live downtown barcelona since 2007 walk it everyday and honestly feel I still got a lot to discover here.
