Photo by @pablocorralvega @thephotosociety I have Photo by @pablocorralvega @thephotosociety I have been confined for the last two months in my childhood home in El Quinche, 50 minutes from the capital of #Ecuador. Here I have been able to breathe fresh air, walk at night in the middle of the fog, look at the stars and, above all, the #clouds. Faced with the ban on leaving the house, I have used a #drone to photograph them. And so I have seen a sea of white and grey coming down from the mountain tops. In various traditions, clouds are a representation of the #spirit, a symbol of that which cannot be seen. In that conception there is an echo with these times: an invisible #virus is stalking us. Dark clouds have come to remind us that nature has its own cycles and rules. When I can return to the sea, to my mountains, to my cloudforests, I hope I will be able to feel that same amazement and gratitude. In this #isolation - especially those of us who are privileged to have a roof over our heads and enough food - it is possible to live. But there are days when we falter and the hugs we cannot give, hurt. The others have ceased to be our flickering, living mirror and have become a threat of contagion. Fortunately, today we have digital tools that allow us to communicate and feel less alone. Language is the mirror in which we discover ourselves, it is the recognition that the other exists, that the other matters to us, that his or her perspective interests and enriches us. It is with language that we tell our stories. Now that I have photographed the clouds of El Quinche I can see that above them the world is still, and the sun and stars are shining as they always have.

Feliz día del amor y de la amistad. Happy Valenti Feliz día del amor y de la amistad. Happy Valentine’s Day.
#retolafcuerpos No te deseo un feliz año ¿Como p #retolafcuerpos No te deseo un feliz año ¿Como podría hacerlo? La felicidad es apenas un destello, un momento gozoso en medio de otros momentos humildes, y no por ello menos importantes. La felicidad es un vaso de agua fresca en un día caluroso, la brisa en la piel, la luz de la tarde que todo lo besa con su miel. La felicidad es el encuentro inesperado con un viejo amigo, el agradecimiento, la ternura, las horas compartidas en la nada deliciosa de vivir. Un momento de felicidad tras otro momento de felicidad tras otro momento de felicidad perdería su brillo. En noches como esta decimos Inshallah. Ojalá. Sí Dios o el Universo nos lo conceden. Si el cosmos lo permite. A decir verdad tengo miedo de la desgracia traidora. Tengo miedo de que desearte la felicidad sea una arrogancia, una ingenuidad. No te deseó la felicidad. No. Te deseo la vitalidad. Una vitalidad persistente, insistente, terca. Una vitalidad a pesar de todo. Te deseo la magia del alquimista, el conocimiento secreto que convierte incluso el dolor en belleza. Te deseo la creatividad, el poder lúdico de convertir la arcilla en respuesta, en desvarío. Te deseo la conciencia. No la conciencia abstracta o filosófica, sino la conciencia de la presencia. La conciencia... de la presencia... de los que amamos. Te deseo la ternura, una ternura orgullosa y convencida, una ternura que compromete tus huesos, tus entrañas. Una ternura que te permite vivir lo que el otro siente, con presencia y abandono. Te deseo una rosa (o un roso 🙂) a quien le has dado el derecho de domesticarte. Toda persona tiene la obligación de vivir la deliciosa complicidad del amor, el peligro de perder el sentido para finalmente encontrarlo. Te deseo la proximidad, el alma que se arrima a otra alma hasta desplomarse en el misterio del otro. Te deseo tiempo, mucho tiempo, tiempo que no has de vender al mejor postor. Tiempo para caminar, para respirar, para amar, para celebrar. Del futuro los humanos nada sabemos. Apenas logramos balbucir inshallah, ojalá, si el universo nos lo permite. Pablo Corral Vega
Happy holidays! Let’s celebrate tenderness and t Happy holidays! Let’s celebrate tenderness and the love of those we love. Felices fiestas. Celebremos la ternura y el amor de quienes amamos.
Happy Thanksgiving dear American friends and famil Happy Thanksgiving dear American friends and family. I learned with you to celebrate Thanksgiving, the quintessential American festivity. This photo of my beloved Jim and Mary Ann Roberts, my parents, taken in 2003, reminds me the joy of sharing with those we love. Is there anything more important? I'm thankful for having my sisters Mary Lynn, Lise, Laura and Anna. We were blessed with the abundant and inconditional love of our parents. The love they had for each other has been a reference in our life. A simple Thanksgiving meal by the sea, together, was all we needed to be filled with joy and gratitude. #thanksgiving #love #meal #pray #family #bythesea
Photo by @pablocorralvega member of @thephotosocie Photo by @pablocorralvega member of @thephotosociety A polylepis grove at 15.000 feet of altitude in the Cayambe Coca Reserve, in Ecuador. Polylepis (meaning many layers) are very slow growth trees. An inch growth (in diameter) of these unique trees can take a 100 years, so the ones that we are seeing in this photograph can easily be 600 or 700 years old. They grow only at very high altitudes in the Northern Andes of Ecuador, and as many other forests they are in danger because they are still being used for cooking, and the agricultural frontier doesn’t stop expanding. #Ecuador #Andes #Forest #Landscape #River #Water
Caminar en la naturaleza es siempre una buena mane Caminar en la naturaleza es siempre una buena manera de despedirse del año. La vida y la muerte están entrelazadas, del mismo modo que la luz y la sombra. No existe la una sin la otra. Nos deseo tiempo para ser, para sentir, para dejar que el mundo nos sorprenda. Tiempo para el silencio. Tiempo para la ternura.
Pareja en el Bar Británico en San Telmo...Año nu Pareja en el Bar Británico en San Telmo...Año nuevo en Buenos Aires. Sentí alegría de regresar a la tierra del tango, a la noción de que nada importa tanto como el abrazo y la música; como la manera en que nos conectamos con los otros, cultivamos los afectos, procesamos las pérdidas, y reafirmamos la alegría de vivir...
Mount #Chimborazo, the tallest mountain In #Ecuado Mount #Chimborazo, the tallest mountain In #Ecuador illuminated by the full moon. A few months ago an expedition from France determined by using high precision instruments that the top of Chimborazo is the most distant point from the center of the earth.
Photo by @pablocorralvega @artesdequito La Fiesta Photo by @pablocorralvega @artesdequito La Fiesta de la Luz in #Quito, the capital of #Ecuador is the largest light festival in the Americas, and it attracts over two million people to the perfectly preserved colonial area. Forty years ago, Quito was the first city to be declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco. In this photo we can see the Basilica illuminated by artist #PatriceWarrener. This light festival is possible because of the close collaboration between Quito and the city of #Lyon @onlylyon @fetedeslumieres
Photo by @pablocorralvega with @francorve The "Min Photo by @pablocorralvega with @francorve The "Minka" is one of the main institutions in Peru. When someone needs to build a house, or do any kind of community project, neighbors and relatives get together and work. The owner of the house provides food and liquor for everyone. In this case, neighbors are coming to help build an adobe house owned by Flora Guzmán, in Andarapa, Peru. Several dozen men are working in the construction, mainly neighbors, and a dozen women are helping with the food. A Minka is happy event, where people work, eat, dance and strenghten their connection with their community.
Photo by @pablocorralvega with @francorve & @artes Photo by @pablocorralvega with @francorve & @artesdequito. Like a giant heart, the cloudforest pulsates early in the morning, with the sounds of birds and insects. At this altitude of apx. 2.400ft the clouds are always touching the foothills of the Andes, bringing moisture and cool air. This photo was taken in the #mashpi reserve, part of of the Metropolitan District of Quito, one of the most biodiverse areas in the world. #Quito #Ecuador #Cloudforest #forest #rainforest #fog #biodiversity #heart
