Another weekend came and, as is usual, my girlfriend and I did not knew what to do to entertain us for a while and get away from the ordinary and the rutine. Where to go? If you ask me, "Old San Juan" is a destination you can go again and again and it still be an interesting place full of entertainment. This time we went at night, after walking several hours in "Plaza Las Americas", and arrive hungry. And we already had in our minds the menu before arriving; some hot dogs of a cart that is always on the docks. Although we got there hungry, we decided to go for a walk by the "Paseo de la Princesa" and reach a small wooden dock that faces the "Puerta de San Juan", something that has become a tradition for us every time we go to San Juan. Upon arrival at the dock, I decided to take the camera out and experiment a bit with long exposure shots and see what results I could obtain but guess what ..... the camera battery was exhausted! Still, with little charge on the baterry, I was able to take some pictures and play a little with the dock, the sky and one of the booths that lay on top of the wall while using long exposures and small apertures (I expected to get a starry sky, but because of the amount of light in the surroundings I didn't manage to get it). With all the frustration of not having enough charge in the battery to take several pictures, I manage to some shots that caught my attention, most of all by the fact that the results were not as bad as I expected them to be because of all the hurry, the running against time and baterry, and the lack of a tripod. This made me feel that, although I don't notice it, I've learned to be a better photographer with the practice and study of photography and that little by little, I'm getting better and faster with the camara, and better in something that I love so much. Practice makes perfection, never forget that! ;)
