I always had a thing for photography. I love the opportunity to capture an image, a memory and being able to express so many differents feelings, emotions and/or history with a photograph.
At this point in my life, if I’m not taking pictures; I’m either browsing RB or playing chess.

I really like dogs and enjoy a lot their company. That’s why you will see that most of my work are dogs.
For me, the true essence of the species is in their name, DOG; which is GOD backwards. That’s why dogs with all their love, loyalty, kindness, beauty are the real expression of God on earth.

I always carry a camera with me. Not always a big camera (DSLR + lenses+flashes+filters), but at least a small digital point and shoot. You never know what you are going to find around the corner.

I don’t like too much editing, at least not to change the essence of the photograph.

I wouldn’t even call myself a amateur, just a guy who likes photography. Please, feel free to make any kind of comments, specially critiques. That’s the only way to learn.
Please, I’m not downgrading people, members and/or their comments; I really appreciate them (people & comments). They keep us going!!!
I just think that takes a special kind of person to tell you, you are wrong for this and that; or you could have done it better this or that way.
Even, if you have to say any particular work sucks, that’s fine!! Honestly.

Here are some of my featured work; hope you like them!
