Hola a todos, y especialmente a los expertos o "frikis" de la billetera bitcoin.com, a la que van a parar los BCH que generamos por aquí. A ver si alguien me puede dar una solución. Hace dos días realicé un intercambio de flexUSD a BCH. La billetera da un tiempo en el que mantiene el precio de la transacción, 15'. Me llamaron por teléfono y cuando volví a la tablet, le dí ok al 'swap' sin darme cuenta de que habían pasado más de esos 15'. En las capturas de pantalla adjuntas…

Analogue photography. In order not to lose the essence of what photography was for dozens of years, every once in a while I shoot film, either black and white or slides. Then it's time to scan in order to have the files digitalised. This image is of the poplar forests of the northern Iberian Peninsula in winter. I went for a look trying to simulate early 20th century photography. Castellano Fotografía analógica. Para no perder la esencia de lo que fue durante decenas de años…

¬ The technical aspect of my work. This is the small motorised contraption I use to make "time lapses", a technique in which the camera takes photographs every so often, and then assembles them as a video. The result is a kind of fast motion.

High key photography . High key photography is where the lighter part is almost burnt out, without losing detail, and the dark part is enhanced in contrast to make it a little darker, just a little. This technique is done from the shot, as it is much easier to process the image afterwards. If you have not taken the shot thinking in high key, it is very difficult to do it later in the editing program. Most of the images we see in high key are portraits. ------------------…

Photographic technique. DOF Depth of field is the technique that achieves that in a scene with close objects, you get them, or less frequently the background, in focus and the rest out of focus. Basically it is a question of the aperture of the diaphragm and the closeness of the subject. Castellano Técnica fotográfica.

A picture a day takes the doctor away. ¬ A panoramic photograph is one that is twice or more as wide as it is tall, although today the 16:9 ratio is considered the basic size for this format. It can be made by cropping a full-size photo, but a true panorama is one that is made from two or more photos shot by moving the camera horizontally and then stitching the photos together in an editing program. Nowadays mobile phones have a pano function but the quality they provide is…

A picture a day takes the doctor away. The blue hour. In photography, shots taken when the sun has already set and there is still natural light in the environment are called the blue hour. The reason is simple, because long exposure times are used, sometimes up to a minute, the sky, which may appear dark to us, still has a certain degree of daylight. It is essential to use a tripod and to do it in manual mode, setting the values dictated by the camera's light meter, but…

A picture a day takes the doctor away. In some respects photography is not always faithful to reality (this also happens in almost all the media) and for something to stand out it is essential to eliminate what is unnecessary in order to focus attention on the main subject. In this photograph of the Faena cultural centre in Buenos Aires, I show the before and after after the mandatory retouching, which is also a personal interpretation. In other words, in retouching there is…

A little gem. (Eng / Esp) For all those who want to make small retouches to their photographs, whether they are taken with a mobile phone or a camera, there is a gem of a programme for the computer, called PhotoScape. It's free, it's in several languages, it does a lot of things in a simple way and it does them well. It has filters, cropping, resizing and resolution tools. It's a marvel and I confess that when I have to do simple things with my photos, I use it without any…

A picture a day takes the doctor away. Architectural photography. Interiors. (Eng / Spa) In architectural photography, apart from the composition, the most important thing is the balance of the verticals and the perspective leaks. It is important that the shot is as correct as possible, as it is more difficult to correct distortions during processing. The use of a tripod and spirit level are essential.
