Isn’t it amazing how the online creative community can introduce us to so many different people who inspire us in so many ways? Some time ago an architect from Uruguay left a comment on this site, and we struck up a cordial conversation. I liked her right away, and not just because she also enjoys recreational sewing!
Alejandra, or Ale as I came to know her, sent me links to her websites, and I just fell in love with her photography. I can appreciate some beautiful architecture, and I love good photography, so I knew all of you creative types would appreciate Ale’s work as much as I do.
Here’s a taste:

You can find Ale here and here. (Most of the text is in Spanish, so if you need a translation, you can plug it into Google Translator if you like.)
Thanks, Ale. I hope you’ll continue to share your amazing view of the world with us!
Thank you dear Gretchen for your encourage way of been and sharing my work as well!!I really appreciate it!
I´m fascinating with the fact you mentioned about online creative positive people and must say I enjoy very much your works and the way you show us your procreativeness during your creative craft process.
It´s a pleasure to share this images with you and your friends .
I ´ll be posting more photos soon.
Many of them are paper´s photographies,I took with a manual(non digital)reflex photo machine, during the VIAJE DE ARQUITECTURA RIFA(journey of architecture)
A worldwide phenomenon since more than 65 years ago..
The money is collected during 3 years in a cooperative association of 3 generations making a raffle, with a house, designed by a student´s concurse, as one of the big prizes.
Every year, about a thousand of students from the Faculty of Architecture of the University of the Republic of Uruguay, travel around the world visiting buildings,learning about living in that cities studied.
Telling histories, meeting cultures.
