Well I believe that this is one of the only pictures that I have in my facebook. And at the same time, is one of the most beautifull picture that I have. This photo was taken at Antofagasta, in a beach called "Cordeles". Cordeles in english means "The ropes", its called like that because to access the beach, you have to go down a cliff with ropes, without them, you cannot down, even you can die.
This photo shows the moment when I was preparing myself to get into the water to run some waves. The beach's bottom is sandy, so if you wape out of the wave, isn't as dangerous as if you were running a wave with deep of rocks.
This photo was taken by my ex-girlfriend, she never liked that I liked to surf, but she went with me to the beach anyway. It was taken between january and february.
To ride this wave we had to raise up from our beds at 5:00 am, get to the beach by 6:00 am, before the winds appears and before the sunrise. It was a magical moment when I was riding a wave and could see how beautiful was the red dawn, and everything was beautiful. When I come back to antofagasta I hope to ride it again, and see the dawn again , and feel as I feel then. Happy and free.

With this other picture you can imagine how much you had to claim to get into the beach, imagine the physical effort you have to do to reach the up of the cliff. This photo shows us the dawn in Antofagasta, you can't even emagine how hot is the air and environment when the sun is stricking you in the face at 12:00 am.
I hope you liked my photos.
