"Dance"


Ibu Agung once danced for me and my camera. As well as she "dances" through life every single day of her life... but with a different dress. But with the same sense of humor, strength, passion, faith on God and harmony on life as. I would repeat this session one and another time again. Thank you Ibu. Suksema.

"Mother"


My deepest admiration and respect to the mothers. Don't forget Mother Earth please.

"Muslims"


Catholics, Muslims and Hindu Balinese share the religious space in Bali. I heart once that women around the world who have to cover their bodies because of religious traditions, can talk and get the whole expression of their bodies just on their eyes. I totally agree.

"Ying & Yang"


The youth and the old age. The experience and the innocence. The strength and the tenderness. The black and the white. The man and the woman.The past and the future. The night and the day. The Ying & The Yang.

"The Cat and The Offering"


This cat will "taste" the ingredients of the offering such as rice and biscuits. Maybe there's an spirit in the body of this animal...

"The Fisherman, the Boat and the Street Lamp"


This fisherman is waiting for the best time for fishing. He doesn't know how nice combination creates with his boat and the street lamp. Sanur Beach.

"Two"


These two woman dressed in one of the many traditional Balinese dresses, are ready for the Ceremony. Meanwhile, is a good time to have a nice talk. Always beautiful to our eyes.

"Ayo"


"Ayo" in Indonesia means "Let's go", "Go On". Children follow their parents steps. This little lady is running late to arrive on time to the ceremony.

"Magical Lights"


The smoke and the back light became the perfect background in a quiet and warm afternoon.

"Wonderful"


It's always amazing to see how the old people are always busy. Specially if we compare them with our western countries where most of the people just sit on a chair waiting to die. This beautiful woman never stops. Until the last breath. Lovely.

"Coming Soon"


This woman is waiting for a new baby. I like pregnant women so much. When I let her see the picture she exclaimed: "I'm ugly". Nothing on earth is more delicated. Thank you Ibu. You are simply beautiful.

"Offering with My Mum"


As everyday, this young lady joins her mother to celebrate the offerings. This is how they learn the traditions. This time she saw me, and the box of matches she had on her hands dropped to the floor. Wonderful.

"Solitaire Boat"


One of my favorites times to go out with the camera is when is totally desert. Is then, when the composition of the objects spontaneously create the photo. It was raining again.

"Beautiful Poem"


This old lady posed for me and I asked her to hold in her hands some flowers. The combination of textures between them and how softly she hold the flowers, make this picture very special to me.

"Gooses"



As every animal living in Bali, they are free to move all around. However, thousands of birds live inside cages. They consider birds as an animal that gives good luck.

"Waterfall"


Many people don't have yet water at home. So when it's "mandi" time, as they have been doing during hundreds of years, the river is the place for cleaning themselves. Amazing.

"Lights & Shadows"


Again at Denpasar's Central Market, one of my favorites places. This woman, having only half left arm, doesn't imagine how beautiful she appears on the picture. God bless u Ibu.

"Rent A Car...or whatever"


Oh yes. I love Bali. No more comments.

"Peacefull Sleep"


I like to see people sleeping...specially children. Looks like if that time were the real life, where you are alone with your own dreams.

"Sweet Dreams"


Very close to Denpasar's Central Market. This mother and her two children are having a rest. It's so lovely to see how this young mother takes care of her children's sleep. And they are enjoying a very sweet dream... just on the street.
