The Magic of the Cities.

Zen promotes the rediscovery of the obvious, which is so often lost in its familiarity and simplicity. It sees the miraculous in the common and magic in our everyday surroundings. When we are not rushed, and our minds are unclouded by conceptualizations, a veil will sometimes drop, introducing the viewer to a world unseen since childhood. ~ John Greer

Playground




Playground at Chapultepec Park.
Chapultepec hill, noteworthy for the centuries-old forest which encircles it and for the castle which crowns its summit. For hundreds of years Chapultepec has been a focal point in the city. It is complemented by important cultural centers including world-class museums (as the Museum of Anthropology, Museum of Modern Art, Tamayo Museum), amusement parks, a zoo, lakes and restaurants like El Lago, Meridien and Cafetería del Bosque.

There is something to be learned from an empty playground.

How did you manage to shoot a playground with no people? Haunting.

I like the shadows in the first shot, they seem to be at odd with each other.

It is interesting... Why no people there?

Olá amigo! Gostei imensamente do teu espaço, com belas fotos, porém seria bem melhor se colocasses um tradutor, pois ficaria bem mais fácil para entender e fazer comentários.

Abraços,

Furtado.

These are totally dramatic photos. A little creepy, too..^^ But all the photos in your blog show that you are indeed a very talented photographer.

The last photo is great — the matching colours, the framing of one element by another, the radiating lines in the shadows. Just perfect!
