Title: Please, let me introduce myself
Post by: EduPerez on October 01, 2009, 03:12:33 am
Greetings from a long time lurker, who has finally decided to join the fun. I was going to write a long (and boring) essay about myself, just to let me know around here; but, being a lazy man, I decided that the best presentation card for a photography forum would be... a selection of my own photos (http://album.edu-perez.com).

I feel nude now.

Bienvenido. Don't worry about feeling naked here - after a few posts we all are - totally.

A much worse feeling is coming off the ferry from Palma de Mallorca at Barcelona and trying to find a way, quickly and safely, onto the A7 Motorway towards Gerona. The only other feeling as desperate is the one you enjoy when you try to do the same thing backwards: finding the right exit from the tunnels and crossing the roundabouts to the ferry terminal without wrecking your car.

But, they do say Barcelona is a beautiful city; so far, it has been a terrifying one!

Saludos

That after your sunken sunk, this has been a tough week hasn't it?

And she ain`t rolled over yet!

They solved the sink blockage problem this afternoon, eventually, and discovered that deep under the house there is also a damaged piece of piping, the result of a hungry rat or rats. This means that they will be back tomorrow to fit a length of new pipe - the plumbers - the rats probably stood quietly by watching and smirking and thinking how cool!

Anyway, the bill for two visits over two days is going to be horrific as, perhaps, the fight to bring it down when I know it could have been solved in one visit had they not vanished on the ringing of a mobile during the first.

Oh well, that's what stress is all about.

Welcome Edu. Thanks for showing us your work. It gives us background to go with critiques and comments you contribute. It's good stuff and I like a lot of it. As Rob said, we're all naked here, so don't worry about it. LL seems to be one of a very few, and probably the best forum on the web that actually deals with photographs rather than with equipment. Enjoy.

Thanks everybody for the warm reception, and special thanks for those kind words about my work. As RSL said, this seems to be one of the few places where people is still more interested in photography than equipment; probably, that is the main reason why I decided to join.

@Rob C: Well, what I can tell you? I suffer that some tunnels each day! And about our roundabouts... we must be the only country in this world who puts traffic lights to enter roundabouts, traffic lights to exit roundabouts, and traffic lights inside roundabouts. Next time you visit us, I hope you can spend some time visiting the city, where or famous pickpockets compensate for our bad traffic.

Hey, not only are you naked like the rest of us, but you also have a sense of humour!

Bienvenido, dos veces!
