Overlooking the infinite sea, on the shores of the city of Puerto Cabello, is this very picturesque place full of history. It is the historic center of Puerto Cabello, a place that still lives many houses of the colonial and republican architectural style, a jewel that still remains as an open book, which tells us about all its history on these beautiful lands.

Reason why I have taken these photographs, which I have previously portrayed a lot of these places, but this time I show other perspectives of some of these structures, which in some cases still function as home or restaurant premises, which were responsible for restoring these architectural works of the past of this port city, which has always been a very important point for Venezuela.

In these coasts, and perhaps in many of these houses or streets, many characters or even foreigners, who in different times of humanity, came to make life in this city, from the time of the colony, with the arrival of Spaniards in times of the Spanish Kingdom or even foreigners who came through this port, due to the consequences of the Second World War.

But, undoubtedly each of these walls, at some point heard interesting stories, as well as somehow those indelible traces were shaped in the history of this site. Therefore, each one of these structures has a patrimonial, architectural and cultural value.

And every time I manage to visit this city, for work reasons, I always find an image, which I use to capture as a photographic postcard, which will be part of this wonderful world of photography, and will remain forever in posterity, that moment that I took the picture.

In some photographs, I took them in color, to capture the beauty of the shades of that range of colors, although we can also see some in black and white, for wanting to contextualize these structures, as if we were in the past, making a retrospective of that place or image captured by the camera.

All the photographs are of my authorship and were taken with a Canon T3i camera.

Con vista al infinito mar, en costas de la ciudad de Puerto Cabello, se encuentra este sitio muy pintoresco y lleno de historia. Se trata del casco histórico de Puerto Cabello, lugar que aun vive muchas casas de la época colonial y del estilo arquitectónico republicano, una joya que aún se mantiene como un libro abierto, que nos habla de toda su historia sobre estas hermosas tierras.

Razón por la cual he tomado estas fotografías, que anteriormente he retratado mucho se estos lugares, pero en esta ocasión muestro otras perspectivas de algunas de estas estructuras, que en algunos casos aún funcionan como hogar o como locales de restaurantes, que se encargaron de restaurar estas obras arquitectónicas del pasado de esta ciudad portuaria, que desde siempre ha sido un punto muy importante para Venezuela.

En estas costas, y quizás en muchas de estas casas o calles, pasaron muchos personajes o incluso extranjeros, que en diferentes tiempos de la humanidad, llegaron hacer vida en esta ciudad, desde el tiempo de la colonia, con la llegada de españoles en tiempos del Reino español o hasta los extranjeros que llegaron por este puerto, debido a las consecuencias de la segunda guerra mundial.

Pero, sin duda cada una de estas paredes, en algún momento escucharon historias interesantes, así como de alguna forma se plasmaron esas huellas imborrables en la historia de este sitio. Por consiguiente, cada una de estas estructuras, resguardan un valor patrimonial, arquitectónico y cultural.

Y cada vez, que logro visitar esta ciudad, por motivos de trabajo, siempre encuentro una imagen, que me sirve para captar como una postal fotográfica, que formará parte de este maravilloso mundo de la fotografía, y quedará por siempre en la posterioridad, ese momento que tomé la fotografía.

En algunas fotografías, las tomé a color, para captar la belleza de las tonalidades de esa gama de colores, aunque también podemos apreciar algunas en blanco y negro, por querer contextualizar esas estructuras, como si estuviésemos en un pasado, haciendo una retrospectiva de ese lugar o imagen captada por la cámara fotográfica.

Todas las fotografías son de mi autoría y fueron tomadas con una cámara fotográfica Canon T3i.
