Description

Ya que mi ultima imagen ha gustado tanto, retomo esta serie que realice durante mi viaje por La Costa de la Muerte en Julio de 2002. Por aquellos tiempos usaba pelicula de 100 Iso con mi vieja Reflex Konica TCX y objetivos 35-70 y 70-150 mm. Posteriormente las escanee con un Epson Perfection 1250 a 300dpi y las manipule con Photoshop 7.2. Mas que unas vacaciones, fue un viaje iniciatico donde conoci un mundo distinto y a personas sencillas y ambles que compartieron sus vidas con nosotros. A porta do lar, en gallego quiere decir la puerta del hogar. Se trata de una imagen sencilla y llena de vida que habla por si misma de como transcurre el tiempo lentamente con ocupaciones humildes, como la de los bravos pescadores que se enfrentan diariamente con "El Mar Tenebroso" arriesgando literalmente sus vidas por unos salarios precarios. A ellos, a mi amigo Luis de Prixelo (por intentar que aprenda a hablar Galego), y especialmente a Mark, ese gran profesional por su apoyo incondicional a mi obra, va dedicada esta imagen. Gracias por vuestros comentarios y visitas. Juan Angel Automatic traslation: Since my last image liked both, resumed this series to carry out during my trip to Costa de la Muerte in July 2002. For those times used film of ISO 100 with my old Reflex Konica TCX and objectives 35-70 and 70-150 mm. Subsequently the scan with an Epson Perfection 1250 to 300dpi and manipulated with Photoshop 7.2. More than a holiday, a journey of initiation was a different world where knowledge and ambles and simple people who shared their lives with us. A porta do lar, galician mean the door of the home. This is a simple picture and full of life that speaks for itself, as time passes slowly with humble occupations, such as the brave fishermen who are faced daily with "The Sea tenebroso" literally risking their lives for a few precarious wages. To them, my friend Luis de Prixelo (by trying to learn to speak Galego), and especially to Mark, that great career for his unconditional support for my work, is dedicated this image. Thank you for your comments and views. Juan Angel
