In March 2025, I'll reach 10 years since I got my first DSLR, a Nikon D5200, and began regularly taking wildlife pictures, mostly of birds and sometimes the two legged animals called humans 😂.
It has been a long learning process. When I look back at the pictures I took back then, I can see the significant improvement I've made over these 10 years.

I've taken more than 69,000 pictures, and that doesn't even include the ones that ended up in the Windows Trash Bin. This number may seem small for some photographers that use their camera in burst mode and shoot thousands of photos in one session. But believe me, these are 69000 pictures edited by me representing long hours seating in front of my computer.
You can see these pictures organized by albums at Flickr, the platform that use to backup online my pictures.
Photo from my album Quinceañera, from November 2015. One of my first attempts to shoot an event. At that time I was a firm believer in not editing my photos. |
This is one of my latest photos in a Karate Event, using a Canon R6 Mark I. | |
Another picture taken with the Canon R6 Mark I, an example of me editing a photo. |
From time to time strangers ask for their photos to be taken. Taken using the Canon R6 Mark I. |
