An other world

My Photo scholarship 2010 entry

Mexico | Saturday, October 16, 2010 | 3 photos

Hola! my name is Ariel, age 27, i live in cancun, mexico and i work in the music industry. the pictures you are looking at are from y last trip, wich i choose cause i dont have my camera any more. I should mention that at the time when the pictures where taken i was going throug an emotional disappointed, i was in a very sad mood. so i started looking for a way out, away from my own thoughts. so, like a kid i began to use my imagination to create other worlds where the peace would come from. I decided it was time to get away, so i went down to the mountains of southern mexico by the border with Guatemala and it was there , throug the eye of the camera that i discovered an other world, floating out of time, static but so alive, where the old Gods watch and keep their treasures, in silence, behind the forms of nature. A photographer is someone who is capable of making us live and experiment live trough his eyes. That is why i want to learn how to be a photographer, so i can take the world to those who want to experience it through an other mind and feel what others do. Cause life is too short and the world is to big . I hope you enjoy the pictures. Thank you very much.
