RE: This was a lucky photo session

Honeydue, let me tell you how many minutes this session lasted and how it went. It was exactly 4 minutes. I’ve just realised it by checking the capture times of the first and the last image—the ones I have in Raw format in my folder, not the ones I edited to share here. I’ll show you the last one too, which made me laugh a lot.
What I want to convey to you with this is an idea about the relativity of time, and in general about the relativity of everything… I had cycled all the way to Santa Fe. It’s not much, only 13 km there, with another 13 back waiting for me. But I went to spend some time with some friends from Hive. People I met here on Hive. Good people, who despite all difficulties smile with such a beautiful smile.
So those 4 minutes felt much longer… I was truly surprised when I saw how little time I had spent photographing the bird. They were the last photos I took yesterday after we left the place that was the main purpose of my visit. And there, curiously, as we were leaving that site, I saw a Aguaitacaimán flying towards some small trees and I said to one of my companions: look, look… it flew over there. And well, I couldn’t photograph it.
But we felt hungry and went for some pizzas and soft drinks, and just before reaching the café, he spotted this bird and alerted me: look, you wanted to photograph an Aguaitacaimán. That one is there waiting for you. And don’t worry, it won’t leave; it’s hunting, very focused, and it seems used to people because it doesn’t fear them.
And my eyes lit up with happiness… because whenever my wishes come true, time stops, you know?

So yes, beauty is within me when I am smiling, and when life shows me that this slow, carefree step draws to me what I desire. These birds are not sparrows that you see in flocks along the streets… you see what I mean?
