just as babies born and children grow, buildings are built and age. from drawing plans to construction permits, buildings go through a significant amount of planning. the overall process with construction accumulate much time and sweat within them, and once built, more sweating is put into its maintanance and the different stories that happen inside them. but eventually they grow old, such as this large population in hong kong. for the most part, people can’t see them from below, as the daily life involves mostly fancy store-fronts and window displays.

feel the air, the cold, the turbulent winds that mess up your hair, your facial expressions, blowing you upwards in different directions with currents of pressure as gravity pulls you back to earth. look out, into that loud and lonely silence of winds and observe. collect this information, enjoy it and treasure it.

transoceanic flights often allow you to experience a sunrise and a sunset with the most incredible views above of the clouds. this particular photo shows the sun setting in the south-east asian pacific ocean form taiwan towards hawaii.

san jose doesn’t change much. throughout my lifetime, i have counted the few buildings that rise from the low density urban cluster. my opinion about this is that there is no urban planning at all, and yes, many would agree. these clusters have been overdeveloped while some buildings are vaguely rise here and there under very innappropriate infrastructure. the one building to the right is the costarican electricity company (i.c.e.) and the one on the left is the corobici hotel (recently bought over by the crown plaza). this view is responsible of welcoming visitors upon their arrival from the airport.

costa rica is geographically blessed. located in between the atlantic and the pacific, you can have monumental sunrises and sunsets on the beach even within the same day. this sunset was earlier this year in guanacaste, playa potrero.

in case you haven’t noticed, i have a thing for the sky: the clouds, the moon, the stars, rays, streaks, etc. makes me feel so small, i can only admire it. savannah allowed me to get closer in so many circumstances and opportunities. with the constant clear skies and windy conditions, one can very varied scenarios of cloud organizations. these provide a sense of order and radiance that evokes a waking feeling inside of me.

as i struggled walking through the hot and crowded streets of new york city, i stopped, took a break and felt a glow within myself reflect from the incredible skies as i looked up. it took me a moment to realize i was letting the moment pass as i stared, until i finally realized i had to capture it into 6100000 pixels. i proceeded to walk down the soho streets with a bigger smile inside out. new york city – summer 2008.
