uploaded by Ricardo Carreon

I am a photography fan that likes to shoot new places, especially new cities and areas with dramatic landscapes.  I went early in the morning to shoot pictures of beautiful Cartagena de Indias Colombia.  Cartagena is a walled city in the Caribbean Coast of Colombia.  It has very beautiful colonial architecture in its narrow streets.  However, this morning I had the opportunity to shoot something very touching.


As I was shooting pictures of churches and plazas I bumped into a small plaza that was filled with pigeons. I started to shoot the pigeons and then shoot persons that were passing by.  Suddenly, a person in a motorcycle broke the silence of the plaza.  Birds flew in excitement.  And this is where the story begins.


A nice photo story you can share with kids.  Meet this charming character as he goes into his daily routine to start the day.

Great photo-essay, Ricardo. I am wondering whether you might care to include more details in the version you posted at NowPublic. We need a bit of what the story is about, perhaps a couple of your paragraphs before taking us to your blog.

You've got a real talent for this!

Mark,


 


For some reason I cannot publish updates in the editor.  I don;t know if my laptop lacks any plug-in or what.


Here is the text.  Can you make the change?

I had this problem..  When you're in edit there is "Category".  When it said "none" it didn't update. See if changing "Category" works for you? lol
