Thirteenth abandoned photo: The cyclist

The cyclist, released on:16/12/2011
Sixe : 20 x 25 cm
Frame : 23 x 33 cm

I was impressed because of a large image showing a breast in the streets of Ljubljana, the capital city of Slovenia. The image wasn't advertising, so I thought it was a street photography exhibition. But I didn't  find any information supporting that hyphotesis. To date, I still don't know the reason because the image was there. But in any case, I stayed in front of the image and then I was more impressed because I noticed that people walking in front of the image didn't pay attention to the poster. All people, pedestrians, drivers or cyclists ignored the giant breast while I couldn't put my sight out the image. And then I said "let's take a photo". The cyclist arrived at the moment I was taking the photograph, he just passed by and, such as all other people, he didn't paid attention to the poster. I like the composition, and here is the photograph.

"The cyclist" is on the streets! I'm waiting for news about the photo!

Twelfth abandoned photo: Thoughts. Found!

Thoughts, released on: 11/12/2011
Size : 20 x 25 cm
 Frame: 23 x 33 cm
Status: found!

"Thoughts" is a photo I took in Leipzig, Germany. It's a tricky image, but it's totally real, I mean, I didn't use any software to create the superimposed images. It's a reflection on a glass and a little more things. The photo is one of my urban cosmovisions. Sometimes when I'm walking I find special visions, images that take me and invite me to think about other ways to watch the common world. In this image, I felt I was looking into the mind of that man while he was looking into my mind too. And I was afraid of that!

So, I left these "thoughts" on the streets, I hope someone finds them!

Eleventh abandoned photo: Men and moon

Men and Moon, released on: 11/12/2011
Size: 20 x 25 cm
Frame: 23 x 33 cm

The Earth's satellite, the Moon. What kind of power does the moon have that humain being feel a strong attraction for it? I don't have an answer for that question. But there is a poem explaining how beautiful the Moon is. 

You can take the moon in spoonfuls
or in tablets once every two hours.
It works as a hypnotic and sedative
and also provides relief
for those who have an overdose of philosophy.
A piece of moon in your pocket
is a better charm than a rabbit’s paw:
it helps to find someone to love,
to be rich without anybody knowing
and keeps doctors and hospital away.
You can give it as a dessert to children
when they can’t get to sleep,
and a few drops of moon in the eyes of the old
help to die well.
Put a tender moon leaf
Under your pillow
and you will see what you would like to see
and always carry a little bottle of moon air
for when you feel you’re suffocating
and give the moon’s key
to prisoners, and the disenchanted.
For those sentenced to death
and those condemned to life
there is no better tonic than the moon
in precisely measures doses.

Poemas sueltos, 1981.
Translated by W.S. Merwin

Men and Moon is on the streets! Leave a comment if you have this piece of moon with you!

Tenth abandoned photo: The wave

The wave, released on: 07/12/2011
Size : 20  x 30 cm
Frame : 30 x 40 cm

Itsn't a wave of mutilation, it's just "The wave". Another photo of "Los Cabos" in México. I took it  early  in the morning, I was doing "whale watching", well, I did just the half, "watching" because any whale appeared. It was a windy morning and the water was jumping and jumping, so, I forgot whales and I paid my attention in waves. I got some nice images. Here is the one I think is the  best. 

"The wave" is the tenth abandoned photo! If you have the photo on your hands, please leave a comment!

Ninth abandoned photo: Sea and rocks

Sea and rocks, released on: 04/11/2011.
Size: 20 x 30 cm
Frame: 30 x 40 cm


I took this photo in the "Widow's beach" (Los Cabos, Mex). Name of the place says everything, isn't the safest place to swim! There are strong water currents and rocks, but despite the danger to doing swimming, it's a beautiful beach to have a peaceful moment because usually there are no people in the place. Moreover, water and rocks form many particular pictures and sounds. I give you one of those images, now you can image the water sound.

"Sea and rocks" is on the streets! If you find it, leave a comment please!
