Chica_Maravilla's photostream |
back on flickr after a long hiatus ...
I'm still learning a lot and have got a lot to learn about taking photos, but i've got a pretty good camera these days, and, I think, a pretty good eye for the noteworthy and interesting. LA is a great muse. she never lets me down. I don't appreciate her nearly enough.
Currently studying the photography of runners/running. My brother runs ultramarathons. I often crew for him.

Dave in Tejas says:
"Life is not perfectly framed with the perfect depth of field. Life is an abstraction that we fight to string togther with key events.
Chica Maravilla's images are the best reflection of life as they too are abstract bits of life and events that connect with the life of the viewer.
Her images seem to fall in front of her lens and are not forced but instead, a revelation of where she was. That in my view, is the best kind of image making. We all travel thru life and having the desire to record and share is a very cool thing!! Thank you Chica!"22nd February, 2007

"Chica_Maravilla's photostream left me in a stupor -- in a good way! Never have I seen someone who so clearly "gets it" with photography (well, in my humble opinion anyway). I wish I could fave every photo in her photostream. So little time, so many great shots.
Well, what are you waiting for? GO! Look at the photos, ya goon!"25th June, 2006
