Esta fotografía del atardecer se hizo hace unos años, exactamente 5, desde la orilla de Berkeley en la Bahía de San Francisco, mientras esperaba, en buena compañía, que empezasen los fuegos artificiales del 4 de Julio, el dia en que los estadounidenses celebran su Independencia.

Hay recuerdos grabados a fuego en la memoria

y esta fotografía del atardecer es una de esas cosas por las que me apasiona hacer fotografía, su poder para rescatar momentos de forma clara. Si bien es cierto que no vivimos en el pasado, el pasado es la roca desde la que nos proyectamos en el presente y hacia el futuro.

This sunset picture is made a few years ago,exactly 5, from the shore of Berkeley in the Bay of San Francisco, while waiting, in good company, to start the fireworks of July 4, the day on which Americans celebrate their Independence.

There are memories engraved by fire and this sunset photography is one of those things that I love photography, its power to rescue moments in a clear manner. While it is true that we do not live in the past, the past is the rock from which we project ourselves into the present and towards the future.

The answers you seek never come when the mind is busy, they come when the mind is still.

Have a nice weekend everyone!

When I talk about warblers, many people say that they didn’t even realize that these were birds from the area. That’s predominantly because they are small. “How small,” you ask? Keep in mind that these are cherry blossoms. That’s how small! Add the fact that they are extremely fast, and that many try to stay hidden in the canopy of trees and you now know why you don’t really see them. Over the next 6 weeks many different warblers will migrate across North America. It’s well worth listening and watching. #PineWarblers

Mind the Gap on the London Tube.

Seriously.

You know how it is the first time you are exposed to something truly impressive that is completely outside anything you've ever known or experienced -- you kinda sit back inside the privacy of your mind and sound high.

"Whoaaahhhh!" "NO. WAY!!!"

And ultimately: "what the ACTUAL F*** — is that for REAL?!?"

For an instant, you're truly questioning everything you thought you knew and wondering just HOW to make sense of this new idea. I might even get a little skeptical and think someone's trying to punk me...

But eventually it sinks in. Denial over.

Your worldview is now completely and utterly changed.

Deal with it. :-)

Space can be a cruel mistress, but she is a beautiful one.

As we await the launch of ESA astronaut Matthias Maurer and the return of Thomas Pesquet, let us marvel at the fact that humans live and work in space, an environment so inhospitable to us.

As Thomas nears the end of his six-month mission Alpha on the Space Station, he took this image, noting that living on the International Space Station “really feels like flying on a spaceship into the cosmos… or wait… that’s what we do.”

While astronauts are often pointing their cameras down to Earth, Thomas looked up for this image. “When you let your eyes adapt to the night, you start seeing millions of stars and it’s amazing…there’s also a lot of beauty in the cosmos itself, it’s just harder to see (and to photograph) at first.”

Thanks to collective human intelligence and cooperation, the International Space Station has been a reality for over 20 years, hosting astronauts who run experiments and monitor our planet from above. While launches are quite routine these days, delays happen but that’s the space business.

In that same spirit of partnership, humans are soon returning to the Moon on the Artemis missions, powered by the European Service Module, and preparing to build an outpost in lunar orbit. The Gateway will be a home far away from home and a stepping-stone to our next goal in space, humans on Mars.

Until then, make sure to look up and, like Thomas, savour the view. You’re almost home.

Went on a Northern Lights safari last night. 50 min coach ride south of Tromsø. Best aurora we have seen in 5 years going on such trips. We were a bit worried about there being 3 coach loads of people but we needn't have been worried. Plenty of space at the "base station" to spread out.

Photograph something that you have had in your mind for years and you just can't let go.

– Alejandro Cartagena

Alejandro adds…

Also write down why you think you can't stop thinking about it. It could be an idea of a project or something or someone. If possible use an interesting point of view to how you photograph this "thing" so that it is visually attractive. This should make it fun. Please have fun.
