About me
Bio
Hi, I’m Cristian. I’m an IT geek that loves to capture the world through his lens. In addition to my IT work, I am a self-taught landscape photographer base in California but born and raised in Costa Rica.
For over 7 years I have been traveling and capturing some of the most beautiful landscapes out there.
Unlike many others, I did not stop searching after finding my passion and talents. I continue to explore a wide variety of pursuits and learning to achieve my “best life” my masterpiece.
Photography for me is not looking, it’s feeling. If you can’t feel what you’re looking at, then you’re never going to get others to feel anything when they look at your pictures

A good photograph is one that communicates a fact, touches the heart and leaves the viewer a changed person for having seen it. It is, in a word, effective.
- Irving Penn -
Photography is not about cameras, gadgets and gizmos. Photography is about photographers. A camera didn’t make a great picture any more than a typewriter wrote a great novel.

Chasing the frame whats photography about?
The word landscape was first used by the early painters and represented natural sceneries. Today the understanding of landscape photography is much broader and difficult to define.
If you ask someone to define landscape photography, you will probably get as many answers as the number of people you ask. The definition of landscapes has evolved over time. Originally from the earlier landscape photographers it was defined as photos of the wilderness with no human influence.
With a good landscape photo, the photographer wants to convey a certain feeling or mood to the viewer, in another words we want to transport the viewer to the same spot we stood and took that picture and live that moment the same way we did, it should be call magic as the imagination of colors, shades and contrast depends of the artist, the photographer!
