Communication

While we wait out this week I leave you with a tour (of the longest we’ve done for a day) to “El Toro”, the “Peña Salada”. There’s an abandoned military base, and had (yes, past) very cool antennas that you can see in the following shots. Well, as says Sergi Boix antennas are no longer there, we don’t know if  were dismantled for safety, or is that a friend of the alien has made August with iron. The point is that as Augusto says … we have a picture that does not have Mario Rubio:

By the way, these pictures would not have been possible without the camera Alberto Hervàs, mine had some problems I’ll tell you one day (or you can read here)

We come to the point … in 8mm and a milky way:

The soundtrack today is given by legendary rock group with a title that I think is convenient: “Led Zeppelin: Communication Breakdown”

By the way … apologies for the loss of quality in the images but I don’t not know why my hosting does not let me upload images greater than 100kb. Yesterday I had a post half done and did not went for it … I don’t want the same thing happen today.

Fear to fear

Yesterday we go outside, it seems that it becomes a good habit! Same location, but not same stage. We also repeat company: Miriam Augustus and myself.

The shots are nothing special, but I think that are part of learning. As in most disciplines, practice makes perfect, and we continue learning.

In the first shot we can see Augusto completely painted by me:


EXIF:
  • Aperture: ƒ/8
  • Camera: Canon EOS 7D
  • Focal length: 20mm
  • ISO: 100
  • Location: 39° 12.423′ 0″ N 0° 30.0978′ 0″ W
  • Shutter speed: 290s

In the next shot you can see we three, perhaps the most curious thing is that, that the three were in the same shot… who paints?: I painted Augusto, and he paints Miriam, me and the rest of the scene .

EXIF:
  • Aperture: ƒ/8
  • Camera: Canon EOS 7D
  • Focal length: 12mm
  • ISO: 100
  • Location: 39° 12.423′ 0″ N 0° 30.0978′ 0″ W
  • Shutter speed: 465s

The later is as it came out first, I think the three of us would have liked to repeat, but it was too late… so for now it stays that way , but we will return…
By the way … Yes! Miriam appears twice! lol

EXIF:
  • Aperture: ƒ/7.1
  • Camera: Canon EOS 7D

I leave you with a complete musician , playing everything but I came to it by this video:

Cullera’s Radar

We continue with the file and now it’s up to an exit that we did in June last year. We met a few (that day if I remember correctly were at least 6: Augusto , Jordi , Alberto , Manolo , and Oscar) and went to Cullera to see what we could do.
We climbed to the Weather Radar and got ready to take pictures. I had not noticed, but there were security cameras and alarms, but as our intention was only to take pictures, we started to deploy the material. Well, they had not yet passed four or five minutes we saw a car up very quickly to where we were, indeed! Civil Guard! , very nice a guy and a girl asked us documentation and asked that we did there. They told us that there was much money in technological equipment and that’s why it was so well guarded, had surprised that so many people were there at that time .

Look! it’s a 20 minutes photo, there’s a lot of light pollution, but the result is not bad at all, it is made with 8mm and then I corrected a little deformation, hope you like it :

As a soundtrack I recommend a piece of my Youtube channel performed by the musical group L’Artística de Carlet. This is the work “Libertadores” by Oscar Navarro, directed by Fernando Hernández García:

Light angels

Yesterday we went shopping with a new guest (Miriam) and Augusto.

I was not very new … but bought a bike, the custom … and it was in my size:

No estaba muy nueva… pero compramos una moto, de las custom… y era de mi talla:

Hahaha, I cheated you? Here you have the real from which we create the world that you can see above. Obviously I do model, Augusto paints and Miriam help with gadgets:

The night was productive, we have another take, on this model Miriam, I’m on the red background light with a flash and a red paper, and Augusto paints the entire scene:

The soundtrack will be according to the new acquisition, no? classic rock, but equaly important to remember (Steppenwolf – Born To Be Wild):

Lizard

Change the subject, today we go for bugs. We had a few days looking out from a hole a female for sunbathing. And as much shame not seem to have i’ve asked for the 100-400 to my friend Jordi, which left me very happy.

I prepared everything, a chair, camera battery, 400, some light test and focus … and with a little patience the star appeared, I’ve taken pictures in all known poses.

But as I looked through the viewfinder in one of many bursts came a big head behind her, the male!, Amazing! we’ve never seen he out, then I re-frame and could only give 3 photos … here’s the best. Hope you like:

This is a pair of ocellated lizards have more information here in wikipedia

Yesterday I looked back at the hole and is heavily covered by autumn leaves, so either they are still hibernating or have changed the burrow of place.

The other day while having dinner with some friends put the movie “Terminator II: Judgement day” and I remembered how good it was the movie and the soundtrack, here are the Guns ‘n’ Roses “You Could Be Mine”:

Sant Bernat II

As the first photo of Sant Bernat you liked, and although this is not as good (in my opinion) it is equally shocking. It’s amazing the game that can give an 8mm.

EXIF:
  • Camera: Canon EOS 7D
  • ISO: 400
  • Location: 39° 14.0157′ 0″ N 0° 32.016′ 0″ W
  • Shutter speed: 30s

The shot is the same day as the above, while some played out I came in to play with my 8mm. Now, whith Augusto lessons, probably would not have painted so (with flash), but it is curious.

The BSO is from a group of 5 musicians that instead of playing the same guitar play the same piano. They are the collective cdza, highly recommended.


You know that the Chapel of Sant Bernat’s it’s the only with heptagonal shape all over Europa? More information

Light-Fallas-Painting

Let’s leave aside the file and go to the pictures last night (yeah, yeah … last night, are still toasty). Some friends went to a Fallas Studio (thanks Ivan and Vicent Martínez for your hospitality). Augusto, Alberto and me took some photos and Enrique made ​​a video that I put below.

There was finished dummies, and others by halves, some were just started, the truth is that the night was productive.

And to top it off today I will not put a music video clip, but a very cool video where you can see the “making of” it is a time-lapse that Enrique was doing while we were doing photos. Congratulations Enrique … It is VERY NICE!

Sant Bernat

Today I bring a session to which I was invited. Those who invited me were to prepare the cover photo that would make the book of Carlet festivals. Here you have my version (which is not the book). Thanks to @zuguzz and Alberto H.

It was a very nice evening and the truth is we did pretty pictures. Sure repeat!

You know that I normally add a song to accompany the photo display, now it’s up to Sandra Bae, she conquered me with the “Do not stop me now” by Queen (search, search …) and today I saw that also have a version of the song from my uncle Clapton, I could not resist myself.

Have google plus? What are you waiting to put me in your circles? you also have the icon (top right, bottom)

Egg

Today I bring you a panoramic view from the ouet in la casella (Alzira). (You know that at the bottom of the image have the technical data plus GPS location, and you can view them on google maps?). For this you only see the location data because the data would not be real technical, as a panorama of several photos.

EXIF:
  • Location: 39° 6.7′ 0″ N 0° 19.4667′ 0″ W

The tour was organized by the friend Sergi and was a pleasure to walk with him and his friends in the mountains. In the picture you can see the Egg, Sant Bernat’s horse, Cardinal’s Cross, the beach and the Raya.

I also attached a video that passed to me last week Minerva (4 boys and a girl playing the same guitar and doing it very well). I am super fan of the guy on the right with Beard… lol

Have you seen in the social links that also have channel on youtube?… “no te digo nà y te lo digo tó”
