Youme

After about 8 years of visiting friends in the Pre-Pyrenees and enjoying the hills, abandoned villages, green valleys, rivers and mountains, I got the opportunity to live in Zaragoza with ‘mi novia’ and now I can enjoy the provence Aragon and its ‘Bueno, Feo y Malo’ surroundings to the fullest. Here’s the result of my love for photography and all that mother nature gives and takes back from us. Starting on the 25th of August 2011 I’m celebrating the fact that I’ve been living and enjoying life in Aragon and Spain by trying to up the stakes to one photo a day for the year to come…

Since December of 2013 my travels took me to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and therefor from that point on I will also include more photos from my travels around Southeast Asia. But the huge archive from my Spanish roadtrips will always be an endless source for new and ´recycled´ photos.

Am looking forward to exploring your blog more. South East Asia is my favourite travel destination with more still yet to discover. I love Spain and I have only scratched the surface there, so that’s a match I reckon. Louise

  Hi Louise, thanks for dropping by, really enjoyed your posts about trekking to Everest Base camp, very inspirational!
  SE Asia has been a blast the last 3 years, really interesting cultures and amazing scenery! Do miss Spain, but was fortunate to have live there for 4 years! Ron

Hi Ron,
I love, love, love your pictures! I´m learning Spanish and hope to visit Spain one day. I´ll get many ideas what to see in your posts, for sure.
If you´d like, have a look at my blog http://www.laniusminor.cz (I know, Czech is not a major language, but it´s challenging, isn´t it? ;).
Feliz Navidad y muy inspirativo aňo 2017!

  Actually I almost never use HDR, my last one is, but guess theres not more than a handful out of almost 500 photos. I always try to keep it down, cuz i dont like those obvious hrd-shots.
  Well, thanks again and nice to follow your travels too,

      Hi Christa, everytime i read about places i go, mostly abandoned, and look up info about it later i find that Spanish people always believe they are haunted places, but guess thats the same everywhere around the world; its that Spain has a pretty dark past and that will probably make those feelings stronger here, dont know examples but just ask anytime you see something that looks interesting….

        Sounds about right. We have the same issue here in the states. If there is something in ruins, there’s usually a story. A big creepy win here are the abandon asylums in the north east.

Hi Ron, greetings from the great white north. Beautiful photos with lots of passion behind them. When a photo as the ability to stop me and lure me in for a detailed look I get excited. I love to look at photography that’s of a different style than mine. Btw, thanks for stopping by my blog it’s much appreciated. Speak soon!

  Hola Javi, definitely love Argon and thought more people should here and see it; not too much, cuz i love the quietness and vastness of it 😉
  Now actually living close to Madrid, so Aragon and Zaragoza are very much missed here, never been to Tarragona, but know lots of people from Zgz go there for its beaches.
  The Bardenas Reales is very impressive, never knew such a place existed in Europe; looks like Southwest of US!
  Hasta luego, Ron.

  Leuk dat je rond gekeken hebt en super om te horen dat je meeste kon waarderen, dank daarvoor…
  Ben zo nu en dan ook oudere fotos aan het her-posten, al dan niet opnieuw ge-edit, die in het stille begin hier geplaatst heb, alleen dan iets meer kwaliteitscontrole 😉
  Groetjes vanuit stiekem regenachtig Spanje, Ron.

I’ve look through a lot of pages of your photographs and feel you certainly know your way around a camera. You have good exposure and processing skills. I must admit in a lot of cases I found composition as your weakest link. There were a lot of well composed photos that were excellent but in other cases I kept asking myself what the subject was. Your abstract work gets too caught up in form and lack direction. Understand that you’re one of the most talented photographers I’ve seen in blogs. I’m not even taking away from your better work. Ask yourself if any given shot could be taken with a cellphone and you’l get what I’m trying to say. You’re good but inconsistant. Thanks for posting such an interesting blog. – Bob

  Hello Bob, thanks so much for your profounded feedback; really love it, so much more to learn from comments like yours. I totally understand your point, but if you feel like it, maybe point out some shots where the composition took away from the subject, if there was a clear subject. Agreed on the abstract shot, totally focused on form and style when I look for compositions there. One of the things that came with posting for a year is the loss in quality for sure; also i sometimes used photos that were more about documenting what there is around in Spain and some are more bout the photography. Thats one thing I wanted to change after that year, more focus on The photo than documenting!
  Really grateful for your compliment but especially the interest and feedback, very helpful!
  
  all the best to you, Ron.

Beyond jealous. . . I spent my junior year in Toledo, dated a man from Zaragoza. I still have many momentos from that period, including 12 rolls of film (I lost my roll from Sevilla). Did I mention that I’m old? This was in 1984. I wish I had the time to go back and spend a year simply doing photography. What a wonderful talent you have, and definitely a particular style, eh? I’m going to follow you. . . looking forward to seeing photos of Toledo 😉 C’mon. You know you want to go.

  Hola Sandra, thanks so much for your compliment and I can understand your fond memories, must have been even more traditional when you were here, although Zaragoza is still very Spanish, really fell in love with that city and its surroundings (as you can see here).
  Been visiting Toledo twice now and its amazing, have to make sure you´re there during the week to wander its alleys alone, same goes for Segovia and Avila who both are close and amazing medieval feeling cities too.
  Guessthere must be some around already, for sure Toledo´s cathedral detail, but probably more to come
  All the best to you y saludos, Ron.

This kind of photography is what I always wanted to do but in some way it doesn’t work out…
Keep it up!

This is amazing, I has always wanted to explore Aragon. I don’t know why, but I have always been drawn to the region. I think this is where the magic is! Thanks for sharing, looking forward to seeing more of your beautiful images. Peace, lee

  Wow, thanks, Lee! Cool that you’re interested; there’s lots to explore already around here. Aragon is amazing, from deserts to the high mountains and canyons of the Pyrenees, lots of history and abandonment too. IF you ever have questions or plan to visit, let me knwo, I’m very happy to be assisting. Also really cool to have met you and your blog, really interesting!

  Hola Carlie,
  
  Thanks very much! The funny thing is, apart from the fact that the Spanish translate everything including names (e.g Prince Charles is Principe Carlos :), that they translated the good, the bad and the ugly into the good, the ugly and the bad!!
  greetings,
  Ron

Very good work! I really like the quality of your photos. I live in Zaragoza and I had a really good time browsing through your blog. Many a time I’ve walked past good street arts without even paying attention to them. You’ve made me rediscovered the city. Maño! Pon más fotos!!

  Hola, thanks for stopping by, glad you enjoyed the pictures! I’ve een living here for almost two years now and do I love Zaragoza and Aragon, the variety, history, people and nature are incredible. I will definitely come up with more street art, but there’s just too much to photograph 🙂
  Gracias por el cumplidos!

En dan lees je ineens Nederlands, wat grappig! En ik maar denken dat dit een Spaans blog was, wat het eigenlijk ook wel weer een beetje is!
Maar leuk om hier weer eens een ‘fellow’ Nederlander tegen te komen.
Prachtige foto’s! en erg leuk om je Barca foto’s te zien, brings back great memories.
Ik ga je volgen…kijken wat dit jaar voor moois in petto heeft…

  Hallo Joanna, bedankt voor je complimenten en commentaar!
  Ja, ik denk dat het een Spaans Engelstalig blog door een Nederlander is voor iedereen.
  Barcelona is geweldig, maar ik ben nog groter liefhebber van de natuur en de verlaten dorpen van Aragon, dus die zullen wel weer veelvuldig voorbij komen dit jaar. Leuk idee ook voor je 365-blog om water als onderwerp te nemen, maar je maakt het jezelf niet makkelijk 🙂
  groet,
  Ronald

    Hoi Ronald
    Nee ik weet dat ik het mezelf niet makkelijk maak, maar ik hou wel van een uitdaging 😉
    en ik schrijf ook in het engels, is nu eenmaal meer toegankelijk!
    Ik ben benieuwd naar je natuurfoto’s… stiekem hebben die bij mij ook meer de voorkeur boven city-pics, hoewel deze ook zeker zijn charme hebben.
    Keep up the good work
    ~Joanna

      Hoi Joanna,
      
      Voorlopig ben je goed bezig met agua als onderwerp, ook altijd mooi met bewegende objecten leuke dingen doen!
      Zullen wel weer vooral verlaten dorpen-foto’s worden, die hebben toch mijn voorkeur, maar ik ga niks uit de weg 🙂

      Ron
