Welcome to my blog. Another Day in "Paradiso" was created to capture and share news, moments, memories, photos, videos and more, that make our days. One of my favorite phrases is "another day in paradise", which we use often, sometimes sarcastically, referring to our daily living in otherwise not so perfect days. With this in mind, I have long adopted the phrase "otro dia en el paradiso" (another day in paradiso), remembering that in this imperfect world we must make our own "paradiso".

Hoy tome lo que pienso son las fotos mas increíbles y preciosas que jamás haya podido tomar. No por mi limitada habilidad fotográfica, sino por el sujeto. Imagina el poder fotografiar una de las aves mas pequeñas y rápidas del planeta, el colibrí, en la etapa mas vulnerables de su vida, su anidación y nacimiento.

La madre es tan pequeña que los huevos son apenas más grandes que los huevos de lagartijo. El nido en su interior no es más grande que una moneda de dólar. La construcción del nido es una verdadera pieza de ingeniería, tan perfectamente tejido, con camuflaje incorporado, que a su vez lo hace hermoso.

Estás son solo algunas de las fotos que tomé, las cuales tal vez no sean ni las mejores, ya que no se tenido tiempo de organizarlas ni procesarlas, y estoy escribiendo esto con mi teléfono. Espero que las disfrutes.


Today I took what I think are some of the most amazing photos I have ever taken. Not because of my limited picture taking abilities, but because of the subject. Imagine being able to photograph one of the smallest and elusive birds on the planet, the hummingbird, at its most vulnerable stage in life, birth and nesting.

It's amazing to say the least, the mother is so small that the eggs are barely larger than lizard eggs. The nest inside is no larger than a dollar coin. The construction of the nest is such an engineering piece, so perfectly woven, and camouflage built into it, yet, it is so beautiful.

These are only a few of the pictures I took, and not even the best ones, since I haven't had time to sort them an process them, and I'm posting this with my phone. I hope you are as amazed as I was watching these. Enjoy.
