Architectural photography Every once in a while you come across the right moment and you have to seize the opportunity. This image was taken due to a delay departing of my plane at BCN Airport, and in the meanwhile I went outside and came across the parking lot lit by sunset.

The former Tempelhof airport. This airport was active until a decade ago and is located in the city centre of Berlin. It was designed and built during the Third Reich and was intended to be the Nazi government's airport of reference. Today it is a large public park for the enjoyment of Berliners. Castellano El antiguo aeropuerto de Tempelhof. Este aeropuerto estuvo activo hasta hace una década y está situado en el centro de la ciudad de Berlin.

Aerial Photography (Eng / Spa) The salt mine of Ibiza. Salt was the only industry on the island of Ibiza until the arrival of tourism in the 1960s. This aerial photograph shows the colours of the different salt ponds, due to a microorganism called Archaea halophila that produces pinkish, red and orange tones in the salt. This phenomenon is only visible from the air. Castellano Las minas de sal de Ibiza. La sal fue la única industria de la isla de Ibiza hasta la llegada del turismo en los años 60 del pasado siglo. Esta fotografía aérea muestra los colores de los diferentes estanques salinos, debido a un microorganismo llamado Archaea Halófila que produce en la sal los tonos rosáceos, rojos y anaranjados. Este fenómeno es solo visible desde el aire. Unless stated otherwise, all the pictures and the words are mine. Do not use this image without my written permission.

ARCHITECTURAL PHOTOGRAPHY (Eng / Spa) Architectural photography aims to highlight the features of a building, both externally and internally. In today's image, I wanted to show the relationship between the house and its surroundings, featuring the large swimming pool overlooking the almost limitless landscape surrounding the house, including the porch of the dwelling. Castellano La fotografía de arquitectura tiene como objetivo destacar las características de un edificio, tanto por la parte externa como el interior del mismo. En la imagen de hoy, quise mostrar la relación entre la casa y su entorno, destacando la gran piscina que mira al paisaje casi sin límite que rodea la vivienda, incluyendo el porche de la misma. #architecture #house #dwelling #panoramic @xaviduran

STREET PHOTOGRAPHY Street photography is the recording of an everyday city scene, trying to capture the essence of how people relate to their urban environment. Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia, is famous for its bronze statues with a high dose of irony. In this scene we see a representation of a Napoleonic soldier leaning on a bench in the main square of the city, next to two tourists completely oblivious to the presence of the figure.

A picture a day, takes the doctor away (ENG / ESP) Night photography. The so called 'night photography' is actually made at twilight, the time of the day when the remaining natural light mixes with the artificial light of the city, aka 'blue hour'. The image shown is a panoramic view of the Old City of Ibiza. Castellano. Fotografía nocturna La llamada foto nocturna está hecha casi siempre después del ocaso, cuando la luz residual de la bóveda celeste se mezcla con la iluminación artificial de la ciudad. Se le llama también "la hora azul". La imagen panorámica muestra una parte de la ciudad antigua de Ibiza. Unless stated otherwise, all the pictures and the words are mine.

One picture a day takes the doctor away. Architectural photography. (ENG / ESP) Old train stations in large cities are often very attractive architectural spaces, and this is the case of the old, but still in use, Estación de Francia in Barcelona, once the central station of the city. I chose to take the photos on a Sunday morning because of the low number of travellers, as I wanted to highlight the architectural aspect. Castellano Las estaciones de tren antiguas de las grandes ciudades suelen ser espacios arquitectónicos muy atractivos, y este es el caso de la antigua, pero todavía en pleno uso, Estación de Francia de Barcelona, otrora la estación central de la Ciudad Condal. Para hacer las fotos elegí un domingo por la mañana por la baja afluencia de viajeros, ya que quería destacar el aspecto arquitectónico.

A picture a day takes the doctor away (ENG / SPA) Framing a photograph There are basically two options for displaying a photograph, either in full bleed or with a frame. In the latter case there are a multitude of possibilities, from a completely plain passe-partout to the imitation of classic frames of all kinds. In this particular case, given the somewhat burnt analogue style processing, I have opted for a negative film frame. Caastellano Presentar un fotografía tiene básicamente dos opciones, a sangre o con un marco. En este último caso existen multitud de posibilidades, desde un paspartus completamente liso hasta la imitación de marcos clásicos de todo tipo. En este caso en particular, dado el procesado de estilo analógico un poco quemado, me he decantado por un marco de película negativa. Unless stated otherwise, all the pictures and the words are mine.

Fotografía de arquitectura. La inclusión de la figura humana en la foto de arquitectura es un tendencia relativamente reciente. Esta especialidad de la fotografía ha sido por norma bastante inmovilista, y cualquier cambio suponía años de asimilación. Cuando los grandes fotógrafos del sector se dieron cuenta que colocar una figura humana revitalizaba la imagen, todos se volcaron hacia la nueva interpretación del edificio. Además, un valor añadido es que esa inclusión de personas, le da a la fotografía una referencia de escala.
