Tierra de volcanes, llena de
energía, donde su paisaje abrupto y monocolor te atrapa y te hace soñar. No hay
nada como contemplar las estrellas en el Parque Timanfaya una noche de luna
nueva, abandonar el mundo en un sueño, contemplando el infinito cielo gris
lleno de luces diminutas que te transportan a ese silencio que tanto añoramos y
que merece la pena visitar de vez en cuando.
El paisaje que dejan los
volcanes después de una erupción es abrumador, pero se han preguntado alguna
vez si existe alguien que se atreva a inmortalizar esos momentos de furia y
pura energía poniendo en riesgo sus vidas. Sí existen y me gustaría hablarles de alguno de ellos, fotógrafos, amantes
de este maravilloso arte y de la naturaleza, que han podido captar las imágenes
más espectaculares de estos dragones de
fuego en plena erupción, los volcanes.
En primer lugar me gustaría
hablarles de Miles Morgan piloto de avión que gracias a la profesión de su
padre Hank Morgan, un reconocido
fotógrafo de revista, siente pasión por la fotografía, aunque él
mismo reconoce que debido al poco tiempo del que dispone, no ha podido
estudiar las diversas técnicas, así que cuando sale a fotografiar,
dispara con su cámara y espera que su objetivo capte las maravillas que
ven sus ojos. En 2009 fue cuando quiso especializarse en fotografía de paisaje
y aquí está su resultado. Imágenes maravillosas, entre ellas fotografías
espectaculares de volcanes en erupción.
A los amantes de la naturaleza,
amantes de la belleza y de la fotografía en general, visitad
su página web www.milesmorganphotography.com y admirad el resto de su
galería de fotos. Os quedaréis impresionados.
También me gustaría hablarles de
los fotógrafos CJ Kale y Nick Selway. La fotografía de estos dos chicos me
impresionó por su originalidad. Pioneros en hacer fotografías de la lava
fundiéndose con el mar, mezclando surf y lava. Para captar dichas imágenes han
tenido que adentrarse en el agua para inmortalizar ese momento y enseñar al
mundo un punto de vista único de los volcanes en erupción, imágenes diferentes,
espectaculares y hermosas.
Tienen una galería de imágenes
en Hawai y al año recorren el mundo para hacernos partícipe de esta belleza tan
particular.
Disfrutad de estas imágenes y si
os gusta y os parece interesante no dejéis de visitar su página web www.lavalightgalleries.com
Por último pero no menos
importante para mí, me gustaría introduciros en la fotografía de Denis Budkov,
un guía turístico nacido en las faldas de “las montañas que escupen fuego”,
como él mismo las llama, de la región de Kamchatka en Rusia. Un lugar donde
hielo y fuego, glaciares y volcanes se funden y se hacen sólo uno. Este
fantástico fotógrafo ha sido testigo de las imágenes más estremecedoras y
bellas de un lugar que parece haber salido de la nada. Kamchatka forma parte de
un “anillo de fuego” formado por aproximadamente 160 volcanes, de los cuales 30
están activos y 6 de esos 30 están en erupción actualmente. Esta mezcla de
fuego y hielo crean una combinación espectacular.
Si queréis saber algo más de él
podéis visitar las siguientes páginas. Su página particular no se encuentra
disponible actualmente, pero en estas dos direcciones que adjunto a continuación podréis disfrutar algo
más de su obra. Os lo recomiendo
La verdad que no tenía intención
de extenderme tanto ni dar tanta información, pero haber escrito menos sobre
estos cuatro artistas habría sido una descortesía por mi parte. Así mismo, con
esta entrada en el blog he querido dar un punto de vista diferente sobre los
distintos tipos de fotografía que se puede hacer de un mismo elemento, el
protagonista de hoy los volcanes.
Espero que hayáis disfrutado y
espero haber conseguido que admiréis un poco más la fotografía.
Un abrazo y hasta el próximo
jueves!!

Land of Volcanoes
Every year I make a visit to the wonderful island of Lanzarote (for which there is located, is one of the islands belonging to the Canary Islands) and acknowledge that the love I feel for this island is growing.
Land of volcanoes, full of energy, where its abrupt and monochrome landscape grabs you and makes you dream. There's nothing like watching the stars in the Timanfaya Park a new moon night, leaving the world in a dream, contemplating the infinite gray sky full of tiny lights that transport you to the silence that we long and worth visiting from time time.
The scenery left after a volcanic eruption is overwhelming, but have you ever wondered if someone dares to immortalize those moments of pure anger and energy putting their lives at risk there. Yes there are and I wish to speak to any of them, photographers, lovers of this wonderful art and nature, which have been able to capture the most spectacular images of these fire dragons erupting, volcanoes.
First I would like to talk to Miles airplane pilot thanks to the occupation of his father Hank Morgan, a renowned magazine photographer, has developed a passion for photography Morgan, although he acknowledges that due to the short time available, not been able to spend time with the various techniques, so when it goes to shoot, shoot with your camera and expected to capture your target know the wonders that their eyes. In 2009 was when he wanted to specialize in landscape photography and here is the result. Wonderful images, including photographs of spectacular volcanoes.
For the nature lovers, beauty lovers and photography in general, visit
his website Admire www.milesmorganphotography.com and the rest of his gallery. You will stay impressed, I tell you what.
I would also talk about the photographers CJ Kale and Nick Selway. The picture of these two guys impressed me with its originality. Pioneers in taking pictures of the lava melting into the sea, blending surf and lava. To capture these images they have had to enter into the water to immortalize the moment and teach the world a unique view of the volcanoes erupting, different, dramatic and beautiful images.
They have a gallery in Hawaii and during the year they are traveling the world and send us this particular beauty.
Enjoy these images and if you like and I find it interesting not forget to visit their website www.lavalightgalleries.com
It will not leave you indifferent.
Last but not least for me, I would like to introduce you to the photography of Denis Budkov, a tour guide born in the foothills of "fire-breathing mountains," as it calls them, in the region of Kamchatka in Russia. A place where fire and ice, volcanoes and glaciers melt and become just one. This fantastic photographer witnessed the most thrilling and beautiful images of a place that seems to have come out of nowhere. Kamchatka is part of a "ring of fire" made up of about 160 volcanoes, of which 30 are active and 6 of these 30 are currently erupting. This mixture of fire and ice create a spectacular combination.
The images of this great photographer speak for themselves.

The truth I did not intend to dwell much or give much information, but fewer have written about these four artists have been a discourtesy on my part. Also, this blog post I wanted to give a different point of view on the various types of photography to do the same element, the protagonist of today the volcanoes .
I hope you enjoyed and I hope you have gotten a little marvel photography.
A hug and until next Thursday!
