I am not a photography fan, and I don’t know very much about it, but one picture that I like is a really famous picture , but the first time that I saw it was when a friend showed it to me, after that I  see it everywhere , it’s a kind of photographers’ cliché

It’s a black and white pic which shows a man covering his musical instrument with an umbrella while it’s raining. I think the reason why I like it is because when I had to do models for my career, I usually had to protect them from the weather, people and other  threats,  I usually preferred to save my  work  instead of my life .  Maybe it is the feeling that the photographer wanted to express but, like I said, I am not an art´s expert.

So the picture was taken (I don’t know when) by Robert Doisneau and It’s called “Musician in the rain”, he was a French artist who took a lot of very famous pictures, like the kiss (a sailor kissing his girlfriend), most of his pictures are about the post-war society, but he also worked in advertising.  Sadly he is dead so I can’t give him my greetings

TV SEries

My favorite  TV series  is Rome.   It´s  a  historical drama   about Roman Empire broadcast by HBO and produced by BBC. (That sounds very boring, but believe me it  is not)   . It´s not   the typical series about  Rome , because it  is very  realistic , especially in the  sceneries, and I think that’s  the reason why I like it so much . the series  shows  a  dirty and chaotic Rome,   like it must have been.  The main characters are two soldiers and friends,  Lucio and  Tito,  they are witnesses  of all the  fights between  Julio Cesar and his enemies,  and how Octavio grows up  until he  is the great  emperor.  The main topics are treason and corruption in politics so  it’s a kind of contemporary series .  Sadly it had only two seasons (despite it won many awards), I never knew why,   and I hope someday it´ll return
