Hace unos días tuve que viajar a Caracas en un viaje de ida y vuelta. Fui a acompañar a un primo que se despedía de Venezuela y a retirar unos repuestos que necesitábamos en el trabajo. Antes de partir nuevamente a mi ciudad natal, Cumaná. Me dirigí al apartamento de un tío que vive en Caracas. Él me esperaba para almorzar juntos y por supuesto conversamos un poco. Teníamos mucho tiempo sin vernos.
Él empezó preguntándome por mi carrera musical, que como iba, que qué ocurría ya que sentía un silencio de mi parte. Le comentaba que la situación no ha sido muy favorable pero que, aun así, seguía trabajando para alcanzar las metas propuestas para este año. Él ha sido una de esos miembros de la familia que ha creído en mí desde que decidí dedicarme de lleno a la música y aun sabiendo que el camino iba hacer largo y duro, el solo me dijo que hiciera lo que me apasiona porque solo así lo que estaría haciendo, lo haría de corazón y de la mejor manera.
Horas antes de que llegara la noche, él me comenta que era hora de alimentar a las mascotas de la casa lo cual le pareció algo extraño ya que no poseía ninguna. Por supuesto le pregunté cuales mascotas y le dijo ya verás, solo espera un rato más. Lo increíble estaba por ocurrir. Cientos de guacamayas se acercaron a la ventana del apartamento esperando con ansias su comida. No lo podía creer, pero estaban muy tranquilas, pacientes y amigables. Cabe destacar que enseguida que me di cuenta de lo fácil que era estar con ellas aproveché y era el momento de capturar tan hermosa especie.
Me sentí muy bien, sobre todo porque las aves estaban modelando a la cámara y posando su mejor perfil. Me dice mi tío que cada día, a la misma hora se acercan a comer, que ya son como parte de la familia pues si no encuentran la comida en la ventana, ha habido algunas que han cruzado la ventana y empiezan hacer bulla para ser alimentadas. Me cuenta que nunca pensó ser quien alimentara estás bellezas pero que ahora no duda en compartir sus tardes con ellas.
Acá les compartiré algunas capturas que logré hacerles mientras amigablemente se comían sus semillas y posaban como grandes modelos. Espero que les haya agregado esta nueva sesión de fotos. A mí me encantó volver a trabajar con esta hermosísima especie.

I had mentioned in previous publications that the love I have for the art of photography is more for capturing the beauty of birds and that I had not had the opportunity to capture them again for lack of a special lens for it. The birds themselves are quite restless or rather arisiac, making it a little complicated to photograph them at the right moment.
A few days ago I had to travel to Caracas on a round trip. I went to accompany a cousin who was saying goodbye to Venezuela and to pick up some spare parts that we needed at work. Before leaving again to my hometown, Cumaná. I went to the apartment of an uncle who lives in Caracas. He was waiting for me to have lunch together and of course we talked a bit. We had not seen each other for a long time.
He began by asking me about my musical career, how it was going, what was going on since he felt a silence on my part. I told him that the situation has not been very favorable but that, even so, I was still working to achieve the goals set for this year. He has been one of those family members who has believed in me since I decided to dedicate myself fully to music and even knowing that the road was going to be long and hard, he just told me to do what I am passionate about because only then what I would be doing, I would do it from my heart and in the best way.
Hours before nightfall, he told me that it was time to feed the pets in the house, which seemed a little strange to him since he didn't own any of them. Of course I asked him which pets and he said you'll see, just wait a little while longer. The unbelievable was about to happen. Hundreds of macaws came to the apartment window eagerly awaiting their food. I couldn't believe it, but they were very calm, patient and friendly. It is worth noting that as soon as I realized how easy it was to be with them I took advantage and it was time to capture such a beautiful species.
I felt very good, especially because the birds were modeling to the camera and posing their best profile. My uncle tells me that every day, at the same time they come to eat, that they are already like part of the family because if they do not find the food at the window, there have been some that have crossed the window and start making noise to be fed. She tells me that she never thought she would be the one to feed these beauties but now she does not hesitate to share her afternoons with them.
Here I will share with you some of the pictures I managed to take of them while they were eating their seeds and posing like great models. I hope you enjoyed this new photo session. I loved working with this beautiful species again.
Thank you very much...

me despido, mi querida familia.
