A photoblog with large images of Buenos Aires - Active 2008 - 2011

Puerto Olivos

Puerto Olivos
The other day I hopped on the train [linea mitre] and got off at Olivos, an upscale suburb just to the north of the Capital. It's where the president's mansion is located. There's a small sailboat port and a pier for fishing.

I'm a lazy photographer because here's a set on flickr of Puerto Olivos at sunrise that's spectacular. Here's another great sunrise shot and a picture of men fishing at the end of the pier.

Here's why your photo is better than the others you mentioned... you 'hopped on a train' and happened upon this place and took a picture as you discovered it. You can sense that in the shot. You can sense that in all your shots. One feels as though they are there discovering things for themselves. That's not a lazy photographer. That's a really good story teller.
