Unesco Cultural Heritage

I would like to visit  the Ancient Mayan City and the Protect Tropical Forests of Calakmul because I love natural enviroments, but I love seeing spectacular old buildings too. This makes me think a lot about the ancient life, how they worked, how they got food, how they lived with each other, what did they belive in...

This place is an ancient Mayan City with a big forest arround. It's very large, and you can see that they built this because they believed in god.

I love this place too, because there are a lot of animals: leopards, tigers, beautiful birds... I am really fond of animals so I would love to be there.

Best Italy Picture

This year we went to Italy in the 4th of  ESO trip and now we have to chose the best picture we have. I chose this picture because I like the way it's taken. It was the first day in Italy, we arrived there by plane, and the first place we visited was Pisa. 

In this image you can see me levitating in front of the Pisa tower. It was a bit hard to take this picture because there were many people there and we had to be patient to take it, but Marti is a great photographer and was able to get this espectacular low angle shot.

In conclusion, we had a great trip with the best people, and this picture represent one of the cool expiriences we lived.

Sebastiao Salgado

Sebastiao Salgado is a photographer. He takes pictures in natural enviroments. I chose this image because I like the energy that it has. I love the power of the elephant running. It gives to me a lot of will-power and it spreads strongness.

Shot types and camera angles

High angle



This picture is taken from a scene of "The Lord of the Rings". It shows Frodo, who is almost losing the ring of power. It's an intense scene, so that's why it's used this angle.

Slanted Angle

 

This is a sunrise. The picture is taken in this angle probably to show the movement that could have an static landscape.

Point of View



The point of view shot is frequently used in films to describe a person who is lying, and usually who just woke up. I think that in this image there's a person lying.

Wide shot



This picture shows the dimensions of a baseball match and the number of people who follow it. Baseball in USA is probably not just a sport, is a lifestyle too.

Aerial shot



This type of shot shows us usually a city, or a landscape. In this case it shows a little village with a large green zone around.

My family

We are my brother, my mother, my father and me.

My brother, Arnau, is 13 years old, we is only 2 years younger than me, what gives us a special connection because we share many things. We love each other, we play together and of course we sometimes have arguments. He is a bit shy, and more sensible than me, he worries for many things. He is very smart, but a bit lazy. My brother is very creative, he has a lot of imagination, and he likes doing things. Usually we are very competitive, and both of us want to win in whatever game we play. I can say that my brother and I have a good relationship.

I have a good relationship with my parents too. My mother, Gemma, is very sensible, like my brother, and very kind; she always helps the others. She is open-minded, she likes to listen to the other people's ideas. My mother is a hardworking person too, she always has something to do, and this is sometimes good and sometimes bad, because she likes doing things, but sometimes that puts her under a lot of stress. She is very kind with me, and if I have a problem I know that she will be there. My father, David, is a bit shy with the others, but not with my mother, my brother and me, he seems another person. He cares very much for us. He does several things for my brother and for me, although he has to sacrifice his own things. When we are worried about something he always gives us a reason to be calmed.

So this is my familily.
