I started minting some of the images of Spanish Lens into NFTs that can be bought in foundation.app and in Open Sea. These are the images that have been minted so far. New images in this collection and new collections will come soon. With every NFT bought, I am sending a 40×40 cm printed image in fine art photographic paper. ff
Back on the road, this time on a business trip to LA. It has been a long time since my last business trip and it was a mixed feeling. On one side it is exciting to see new places and meet colleagues I have never met before. On the other side, I have to overcome the sloth of the long air trip that once…
Arrived at this place and couldn’t see anything. The mist and the dust erased the horizon. None of us could see what was down the cliff. The magical landscape surrounding us and erasing time and distance. Lost of sense of reality, any misstep and would disappear in the white cloud below. Suddenly, a ray of light started to show the huge plain below. Traces…
04.02.2022 – 05.02.2022 The sunrise is again very beautiful with the sun coming out behind the mountains in a quickly changing cloudy sky. It is windy and cold, but I manage to get some pictures of the sun rising from the top of crater in the surroundings of our camp. It is a long journey to Dubai that we will do in two stages….
03.02.2022 Another night in paradise for hot water and a proper bed, although the hotel is not up to a minimum standard. Very old and run down furniture, taps full of lime, carpet where your feet sink, hard as a stone bed and I will let you imagine the rest. There is hot water and that is essentially what we are looking for. We…
02.02.2022 It has been a very cold night with temperatures below zero, probably minus 3 or minus 5. When we wake up the thermometer marks -1°C. The water in the bottle has frozen partially and so have we. We are at a pretty high altitude of around 900 meters above sea level and the wind blows gently from the East to increase our cold….
01.02.2022 The lovely house in a bizarre way in Al Ula provided us the right rest and we are restored after the night in the desert. A hot room, a good bed and a hot shower in the morning is all that you need to feel fresh and ready for the action. We take it easy in the morning as we are starting to…
31.01.2022 Sunrise in the desert is always an experience, but the one today is one of the most stunning ones I have ever witnessed. Ali wakes up at around 5 am and with him the rest of the crew starts to get up. The clanking noise of the kettle is difficult to muffle in such remote and silent place. It is surprising that Arabs…
30.01.2022 It is always good to sleep on a proper bed with clean sheets and take a hot shower, especially when it is 6ºC outside. Tomorrow when we camp it will be a whole different story. No bed and no hot shower (actually, no shower at all). But we are on an adventure and that’s what it is all about. We meet at 7:30…
29.01.2022 We wake up very early to reach the Al Qassim camel market at the outskirts of Buraydah, the largest in the world. A quick coffee, pack the camp and ready to go at 7am. The market starts at around 6 in the morning and it hosts not only camels, but also goats and sheep. The first thing that surprises us is the size…
