About the Book
The pictures in the book were taken between July 2012 and February 2013 on the streets and parks of Madrid. The pictures include the Plaza Mayor, Parque del Buen Retiro, and Metro Station as well as streets in Salamanca and other neighborhoods.
There are noticeable signs of the economic crisis, but it doesn’t prevent coin and stamp collectors from meeting every Sunday morning at the Plaza Mayor which they have been doing since 1927.”El Parque del Buen Retiro” is the green heart of the city. It is a place for relaxation and a perfect area for reading or visiting with a friend.
The Madrid metro is the 6th longest in the world. While waiting for a ride on the Madrid Metro last February, I captured a group of riders waiting for the train on the opposite platform making an interesting picture composition.

As a photographer I capture the beauty I see during my travels. The images take many forms: landscapes, flowers, windows, parks, etc. I created and published photo-books to tell travel stories through images. Enjoy.
