My camera, my favorite piece of technology.

¡Hello everyone!

Today I'm going to talk to you about my favorite technological element, the one I love: My camera.

Me with my camera, took by a friend.

Photography has been one of my favorites hobbies since always. My love for it began when I recived my first camera at 14. In that time, I had one of those compact cameras -the classic little one that take digital photos- and take a lot of pictures of my school classmates. Always in a funny way, never seriously.

But that changed when I turn 21. That year, in my birthday, my parents (knowing my love for take pictures) bought me as a gift, a camera Canon and it was much more big than I was used to. Is a reflex semi-professional type and it's called reflex because it reflex the reality "imitating the human eye function", reason why in this camera you can also change the lents, is really cool. 

But! Let me tell you as an advice, the clue with this type of cameras is always used it in manual mode, because, even when there is a automatic way to use, you really learn to used it when control it by yourself.

The thing is that the same year when I started to use my new camera, I sign up in a photography course just to try... and that is when I find out a new way to look photography, not so much as a way to have fun and "take pictures just because", but a way of expression...

Someone says once that "it doesn't matter how good is your camera, if the photos you take did not express an idea or your heart, are worthless" (or something like that)

Since then, I'm constantly using it in a lot of events, whit my friends, my family (in fact, my family refers to me as the official photographer of he family haha), in journalism events for my career or when I just want to distract myself.

I learned to have a special connection with natural landscapes photos. It helped me to appreciate the beauty of nature in a more profound way and I believe that is a marvelous thing, cause, I found out that the most minimal thing that surround us can have an infinite beauty.

Anyways, I really love my camera, maybe it's not something indispensable in my life if tomorrow's break or something bad happens to it, but definitely makes my free time more happy and let me keep to myself the thing I want to remember for always.

Here are some of my pictures:  
    Amanda, my older niece.


Antonia, my younger niece.


I took this shoot with timer and the one with the light
 is one of my best girlfriends, Catalina.




Hope you enjoy it!

See ya later, alligator.

    I totally agree, a photograph is nothing if it does not reflect something of us.
