A photograph and its story

 Hello Everyone. Welcome to my blog!

Today I'll write about a photograph of my dog and its story.

This photograph shows my first pet, Gaspar, when he was a puppy. This photograph was taken by me, with the camera of my grandfather in 2009. He always let me play with his camera (I think that he thought that the camera had no film). This day, when I took the photo, I was with Gaspar in the courtyard of my grandparents' house. He posed next to the plants while I was standing in the doorframe. I took so many photographs of my grandparents' house that I finished the film, but I don't remember if I finished it  that day or later. One day I stopped playing with the camera, and it goes stored away for ten years until my grandfather told me that there was a film to be developed. The truth is that I didn't remember which photographs were on the film, in fact, I didn't know that I had taken  those photographs. So I was moved very much when I saw the photos for the first time because they made me remember good and beautiful moments of my childhood, but when I saw Gaspar's photograph, he had already passed away, so I felt some sadness when I saw it.

    I love this photograph because it's the only photo of Gaspar when he was a puppy. I also love this photograph because, always that I see it, I remember my childhood, the afternoons that I spent with my grandparents, and the vitality that they had.  




Thank you very much for taking the time to read this post :)

  2. What a nice story about that photo, it's really cool that after ten years you were able to develop the photo, it's like opening a memory box, but you didn't know you had. Unbelievable. Gaspar's memory is being well remembered. Have that for sure.

Who am I?

 Hello everyone! Welcome to my blog.  I`m Francisca. I`m twenty-one years old. I was born in Punta Arenas and I`ve always lived here, although I lived in Santiago in 2019 because I study Theory and History of Art at the University of Chile. Now, let me tell you about my family. I have one brother, his name is Roberto (he has the same name as my father), he loves to dance and, for that, he is a dance teacher. My father loves food and his family, but his favorite family member is my dog, her name is Pía, she`s very playful, and she loves my father very much. My mom`s name is Isabel and I always watch movies with her. My mom loves plants and flowers, for that, she always takes care of them. Finally, the new member of my family is our cat, her name is Cucha, and she sleeps all day. Some of my hobbies are watching movies and cooking. I`m good at cooking because, during quarantine, I`ve learned to cook new recipes. Additionally, I like to walk with my dog and enjoy nature, but I hav...
