Something artistic I enjoy doing

I really like arts, music, films, sculpture, painting, architecture (obviously!), but the artistic thing I do that I enjoy the most is taking pictures. I actually been doing it since I was like 10 years old, when my parents gave me a camera for Christmas, or even before that. But since then I started taking pictures of everything I saw. I'm not quite sure about how to do it, because I am really amateur even though I took classes of photography at school, but whenever I see something interesting, I take my phone out and save that moment in its memory card. When I really like the pictures I upload them to my Instagram account, where I see what is other people sharing and I interact with them. 

I don’t know if I am good at it, but I really like doing it, because, as I said before, is a way of saving memories, situations, and even emotions, not just for myself but to everyone who wants to look at them. As a fun fact about it, my mother always asks me to take her pictures when we go out!

The picture I uploaded for this post, was taken a few days ago, when I was on my way to university in the subway. I think is one of the best photos I have ever made.

Photo of my family

The photo I’ve chosen was taken in the summer holidays of 2014. It is a photo of my sisters and me. In it you can see, from left to right, Josefa who was 4 years old in that moment, Constanza, who was about 14 and me, who was about 16 years old. It was taken by my mother in a trip to Valparaíso we made that summer, behind us you can see a mural in cerro Polanco. 

I like this photo because I enjoyed that day so much. We were staying in El tabo, a town two hours away from Valparaíso and my mother had to drive all that distance. In the road one of our wheels was clicked and the guy who was sent to help us, didn’t find us and when we saw him, about an hour later, we saw that he had a clicked wheel too! We laughed a lot. A stranger ended up changing our wheel and then we could end our trip to Valparaíso. When we arrived, we had to left the car on a mechanical. After that we spend all day walking in the hills (Artillería, Alegre and Polanco) and traveling in trolebús. My little sister, Josefa, was the most excited about it and she never got tired!
