AWAY

2009-02-04T07:28:43Z

I am going to be away for two weeks. I am going to visit my son, my Mum, and my sisters in Mexico City. I was born and raised in Mexico and lived there for forty years. I moved to Canada then and ever since I made Ottawa my home. I raised my son in Canada, just finished his BA in Economics at Acadia University in Nova Scotia. It was sad to see him gone but he found a very good job at CitiGroup. He survived the lay off, so we have to be grateful for that. If this is your first time on my photo blog, check my photos for the month of January. See you all soon.

This was the second time I have tried to shoot movement at night. I tried so many settings until I nail the correct one. It was nice to see the results.

In the summer time there are a number of festivals going on. One of my favourite sites is always "face painting".

Aluminum Foil

A dear friend of mine likes to dress manikins with tin foil paper. It was the first time I was using side lights. I had lots of fun.

My eyes have always been attracted to reflections.

Having a nap.

It is one of those very cold winter days, with a windshield of -36. I feel like getting under the covers and take a nap.

SMILES. THE MARKET, OTTAWA

I have a photography book in the hallway of my condo, and people can change the page and look at a different photograph every day. Somebody just changed the page and it says LAUGH and there are two natives of Africa smiling, so I thought it would be nice to smile for today.
