Por lo demás, las fotos nacieron un fin de semana de invierno, en una visita familiar a la ciudad, y disfrutando de algunas de mis estrategias favoritas de conciliación de la vida fotográfica y familiar: la primera, MADRUGAR, disfrutar de la mejor luz del día, y los momentos en que la ciudad está más tranquila (aunque Salamanca, como Nueva York, parece que tampoco duerme mucho...); la segunda, aprovechar los lentos paseos por el centro de las ciudades para reducir la velocidad de mi vida, tranquilizarme un poco y OBSERVAR LOS DETALLES; y la tercera, luchar contra el cansancio acumulado a lo largo del día, y QUEDARME UN RATITO MÁS, sólo un ratito, cuando todos ya se retiran...
Espero que os gusten. ¡Por favor, comentad y compartid!
World Heritage Sites are almost always very exciting places where Nature, history, culture or any combination of all is able to reach our soul. And we kind of tend to forget this emotion especially when these places are not remote, far from home... In Spain, I'm lucky enough to live within 2 hours from a few of these sites, that I hope to visit and share in this modest space, just because I'm convinced they deserve it, and share them is almost an obligation in these so hard times for culture...
The following images where born during a family visit to the city, using and enjoying some of my favorite strategies to help balance my photo and family life: one is GET UP EARLY, enjoy the best light of the day, and the moments when the city is quieter (although this University Salamanca, like New York, doesn't seem to sleep much...); another one is to take advantage of those slow walks downtown, and PAY ATTENTION TO DETAILS; and the last one today, fight tiredness of the day and STAY A LITTLE BIT LONGER, just a little bit, when everyone else is already gone to bed...
Hope you enjoy, comment and share!
