Left in the dark: New Photographs I

Read in english. 

Sorry if there are any typos. English is not my first language and I hardly write good in spanish.

My blog has been kind of deserted lately, because of my environment and other stuff and so I don’t have time nor strength to update it, or to even put myself in front of a computer to write something.

But this new section of my blog is going to be a link to share photographs I've taken and I took constantly, I like it very much and I thought showing them here would be great, telling their own history or why did I make them.

With this I’m not trying to achieve anything, I simply like making pictures, putting them a filter, framing, editing, changing and putting them online. I don’t think I’m an artist nor a photographer, because I don’t really use a technique. I just take them. It’s a funny way for me to spend my time and not get bored. Hope you like it.

Most of them are made with my phone.

Mi blog ha estado abandonado últimamente, pero por circunstancias y otras cosas no tengo el tiempo, o las ganas, de ponerme delante del ordenador y escribir algo desde hace relativamente poco.

Pero esta nueva parte del blog va a estar dedicada a compartir las distintas fotografías que he hecho y hago constantemente, me gusta mucho hacer fotos y he pensado que enseñarlas por aquí estaría bien, contando la historia de la foto o el por qué de su existencia.

Con esto no pretendo nada que no diga aquí, simplemente me gusta hacer fotos, ponerles un filtro, ajustarlas, editarlas, cambiarlas y colgarlas en Internet. No me creo un artista ni un fotógrafo, ya que muchas veces no usa una técnica, solo las hago. Es una forma entretenida para mí de pasar el rato y no aburrirme. Espero que os guste.

La mayoría están hechas con mi teléfono móvil.

1-      Fog in the morning: heading to class in train from Atocha to Getafe. The original light was not yellow, of course, it’s an effect. One of my favorite, it’s mysterious.

1-      Niebla en la mañana: yendo a la universidad en la Renfe desde Atocha a Getafe. La luz original obviamente no es amarilla, sino es un efecto. Es una de mis favoritas, me parece misteriosa.

ite, it’s mysterious.

2-      Bastet and Mekhit 1: my cats sleeping together in my mom’s sofa, Bastet helds his paw over the other who is completely asleep. They’re so cute.

2- Bastet y Mekhit 1: mis gatos durmiendo juntos en el sofá del cuarto de mi madre, mientras Bastet pone la pata sobre el otro completamente dormido. Son adorables.

3-  On top of her: my friend Sarah, who doesn’t like pictures, and I (there were more people) spending a day in the pool outside Madrid. The lawn is so green and pure, my bath suit is pink and cute, and her skin so bright  that her “bad” attitude (the finger and she hiding her face) contrast the colors of the picture, making it special for me.

3-      Sobre ella: mi amiga Sarah, a la que no le gustan las fotos, y yo (había más gente) pasando un día en la piscina en las afueras de Madrid. El césped es tan verde e inmaculado, my bañador rosa y bonito y su piel tan brillante que su “mala” actitud (el dedo y que se tape la cara) contrasta con los colores de la foto, haciéndola especial para mí.

4-      Fire in the Zoo: Zoo is a night club in Madrid, I’ve been there a few times, this picture was taken in the first hours of its opening, where there’s almost nobody yet but everything’s ready for the party. I like the fire in the dark and the saturate pink looking at the empty floor, ready for everything (everything).

4-      Fuego en Zoo: Zoológico es una discoteca de Madrid a la que he ido unas cuantas veces, esta es una foto de las primeras horas de su apertura, donde no había nadie casi pero todo está preparado para la fiesta, me gusta el fuego en la oscuridad y la luz magenta saturada enfocando al suelo vacío, preparado para todo (todo).

5- Cows in the way: In a trip to the Madrid’s mountains with some college friends, I went out for a walk to the lower part of a mountain, which is a forage place for animals, I found cows there, I was afraid of them but at the same time they were funny.
