Intentar fotografiar un Pijuí despejado y con pocas ramas enfrente es algo bastante complicado; si bien son bastante confiados en su comportamiento el ambiente en el que habitan constituye un verdadero dolor de cabeza para el fotógrafo; son aves que se mueven en el estrato bajo y denso y no hay muchos lugares descubiertos a […]
Growing Damselfly after emerging
Although I had never post macro pictures overhere it’s what I like most to photograph. With this new blog I’ll hope to show you some of my macro pictures and I like to start with a serie of a damselfly growing after she emerged her former home. The picture on top of this blog is […]

Haciendo equilibrio […]
