Project 365

It took me a while but I have decided to start a “365 project”.
I’ll be taking a photo a day for 365 days, using my Iphone camera now, and Instagram to share the photos around.
For now I’m sharing them on Facebook, on Twitter and on my Tumblr blog.

So stay tuned, and give me your opinions and suggestions about the project ;)

[Timelapse] The arms of the ocean – Final

All done at last!

These photos were shot in a Beach village near Tetouan – Morocco, using a Canon EOS 450D.

[Timelapse] The arms of the ocean – Trailer

It’s been a while now, I’ve been working on a timelapse but not the video kind of it.
This one is made out of about 1150 photos, all shot in a beach village near Tetouan – Morocco, using a Canon EOS 450D.
Check out the trailer of my very first timelapse (I probably should stop calling it that! a fast stop-motion might be more correct! Anyways…)

2011 in review – Thank you everyone!

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog.

Here’s an excerpt:

A San Francisco cable car holds 60 people. This blog was viewed about 1,800 times in 2011. If it were a cable car, it would take about 30 trips to carry that many people.

HDR again!

After “my very first HDR experiments”, I thought it’d be logical to make a post for the new versions of these same photos and compare the progress – Although I have already published a whole HDR collection: “The road”..

So here are the new versions of those photos:

It’s all about people

I heard a really great photographer saying once that photography is not only about keeping your own memories and family souvenirs.. photography is about people.. The other people.

Though I’m no portrait photographer, I love portraits, especially those representing people from different places, different cultures, faces of pure strangers.. Strangers you feel related to, strangers whose stories are written in their eyes and on their lips.. Strangers you feel close to your heart, just because they are humans..

Survival

Survival

Some people strike you with the way they look at things, deep sad faces.. still intelligent and alert..
Then beyond their old age, or their old clothes, beyond the dirt and the confusion, you see great people, people who weren’t given the opportunity to prove themselves, special souls fighting to survive and facing a tricky life with wide smiles and thankful hearts.

A portrait of innocence

A portrait of innocence

…Then a sweet little boy watches you from the distance as you point your camera here and there, and flinches with a wide smile when he realizes that the lens is pointed towards him..
He runs away to hide behind his mother, but his eyes never quit watching you, and an innocent smile of triumph floods your heart with joy..

Purification

And it takes only one look at the horizon.. the far, far horizon… to know and to feel faith invading your soul and your heart.. deep inside..
and you catch yourself inhaling the pure air and taking in as much purity as you can, for it may take a while before you ever get another chance to clean up your interior…

That’s where you feel absolute freedom, infinite connection with yourself and with the world around you, and the more you let it take you in, the more every second and every tick of the clock becomes yours… Time becomes meaningless.

Purification

A sunrise from the north

It was a cold morning, or maybe it felt cold because I had to leave my bed and hurry to get the tripod and the camera set to capture the sun emerging from the ocean… Or so it looked as it slowly made its appearance…
Place: Tamernawt – Morocco

So stay tuned! ;)
