buenos aires adored
Borges : Las Calles de Buenos Aires
Ya son mi entraña . No las ávidas calles, incómodas de turba y ajetreo,
Sino las calles desganadas del barrio, casi invisibles de habituales.
Buenos Aires is a city of Iconic Contradictions. She is Antiquarian, but Youthful. She is Poor, but Extravagant. She has been Humbled, but remains Proud. She carries herself with the elegance and culture of well-heeled, couture fitted woman who'll dance unabashedly to the grinding rhythm of a Cumbia Villera beat. Before one knows what to make of her, she sweeps you up in a dance of emotion and passion as exhilarating as the Tango she made famous - and just like that, I'm caught up in a love affair with the city of Buenos Aires.
I find myself overlooking a city which has written itself into my own family's history.
This is the city from which I came, but never had the chance to really know. There is more to this enamorment than the simple Adoration of a City and it's People. It's more than just the seductive and rich history this city shows with every breath. For me it's been about understanding the fundamentality of Family and the sincerity of a connection which at times may seem imperceivable, but in reality never fades. Through the blanket of a Primavera Llovizna ( Spring Mist ) I can see a city which has always held a place in my past - but now which I hope will always have a place in my future.
I've experienced much in my time so far in Buenos Aires. I've amassed a sizable amount of images - viewed best as captured moments of a continuum, rather than static frames. I'd love to share with you some of the sites which have defined my time here in Argentina. There's much, much, much more for me to talk about - but I'll hold my tongue for another time. I offer you here a look into my Buenos Aires.

Muy buenas fotos. Quizás sin querer y otro tanto queriendo, lograste mostrar lo que somos, un gran popurri de contrastes. Te saluda Pablo un diseñador porteño que agradece tu estadia y semejante ojo para cautivar con solo un par de fotos.
Saludos!
