Calle del Toro

Join my photo shooting on the historical Calle del Toro (Bull’s Street) in the very heart of old Madrid. Even if the street is famous, it is part of hidden Madrid, alongside the infamous Plaza de la Cruz Verde (Green Cross Square). Enjoy!

Únete a mi sesión de fotos en la histórica Calle del Toro en el corazón del Madrid antiguo. Aunque la calle es famosa, es parte del  Madrid oculto, junto la terrible Plaza de la Cruz Verde. ¡Disfrute!

Crazy night

This is a post about one crazy night spent in “La Latina” neighborhood of Madrid. We took those photos after 5 real strong Caipirinhas and some other liquors. That was our summer (weekend) ritual when we were home: daylight shopping and lunch, then starting around 10P.M., dinner and at least 4-5 hours at a terrace and then night walks and photos 🙂 So all the nights were crazy, but that particular night was best because we found an abandoned suitcase full of clothes in good condition, so we had FREE shopping that night too 🙂 I picked up two nice dresses. And since then (August 3rd) I already wore one of the dresses twice.

Este es un relato acerca de una noche loca en el barrio “La Latina” (Madrid). Tomamos las fotos después de 5 caipiriñas fuertes y otros licores. Ese fue nuestro ritual de verano (findes) cuando estábamos en casa: saliendo de compras y para comer por el día, luego comenzando alrededor de las 10 con la cena y por lo menos 4-5 horas a la terraza y luego paseos nocturnos y fotos 🙂 Así que todas las noches eran loco, pero esa noche en particular era mejor porque hemos encontrado una maleta abandonada llena de ropa en buen estado, así que tuvimos compras libres esa noche también 🙂 Me tomó dos bonitos vestidos. Y desde entonces (3 de agosto) ya llevaba uno de los vestidos dos veces.

The tree

One night in “La Latina” neighborhood downtown Madrid I found this tree and for no particular reason I start posing next to it. It was difficult to take the sitting photos as I was surrounded by annoying ants. In the end it was a funny session 🙂

Una noche en “La Latina”, el barrio del centro de Madrid, me encontré con este árbol y por ninguna razón, empe posando junto él. Resultó difícil tomar estas fotos donde estoy sentada por que estaba rodeada de hormigas del árbol. Al final, fue una sesión divertida 🙂

Do you remember the summer ?! Second episode.

New old summer pictures from Madrid – there will be some from outside of Madrid in the future – from streets, parks and other places. Those pictures were never posted on my blog because the lack of time during the summer, but now, when it’s so cold and windy and rainy outside, I have more time to review and post those photos. Hope you will enjoy this “trip” through the summer.
