MOUNTAIN DREAMS

This small handful of images is much more than a simple photography book, since they reflect a style and a “philosophy of life”, that of those who risk everything, to make their dreams come true, to discover the beautiful landscapes that our mother nature from the top of the most spectacular peaks on the planet and also do it with a camera to be able to share those “gifts” with others, their lived experiences. A LIFE AMONG MOUNTAINS

MILKY WAY FROM EVEREST BASE CAMP
MILKY WAY FROM EVEREST BASE CAMP

In the book you will find images taken over more than 25 years of expeditions and photographic trips. Many of them have obtained recognition in the most prestigious photography contests.

From the highest peaks on the planet such as Everest, in the Himalayas, a mountain that I ascended in 2018, to such mythical peaks as Mount K2 and Broad Peak in the Karakorum, passing through mountain ranges such as the Pamir, the Thian Shan, Alaska, Andes, Africa, Alps, Dolomites, or the Pyrenees, the mountains that saw me grow up.

The best lights, the most beautiful locations, the experiences lived along the way.

Prologues by mountaineer Ferrán Latorre, photographer José Benito Ruiz, and Martín Garcia OMD, Technical Expert

#03 / ESTAS NAVIDADES PUEDES REGALAR ALGO DISTINTO, REGALA PASION, REGALA INTELIGENCIA NATURAL.

TERCER OBJETIVO CUMPLIDO.

Ya hemos conseguido el tercer objetivo, que era hacer el libro con 240 páginas para que entraran más fotos.

SOLO TENGO PALABRAS DE AGRADECIMIENTO HACIA TOD@S LOS QUE LO HABEIS HECHO POSIBLE, ESTE LIBRO ES DE TOD@S VOSOTR@S PUESTO QUE SI NO, NO HABRIA SIDO POSIBLE. SINCERAMENTE GRACIAS.

ESTAS NAVIDADES PUEDES REGALAR ALGO DISTINTO, REGALA PASION E ILUSION, REGALA INTELIGENCIA NATURAL.

Aprovecho esta entrada para deciros que introduje una nueva opción especial, "Mecenas Urriellu", para regalo de navidades, en la que se puede comprar una foto impresa a tamaño 60x40 cm en papel "Fine Art" , a elegir de mis redes sociales como regalo especial para estas navidades, ya que la enviaría para que llegara antes de esas fechas tan especiales.

#02 / SEGUNDO OBJETIVO SUPERADO, AHORA VAMOS A METER MAS FOTOS

ATARDECER SOBRE EL ASPE
ATARDECER SOBRE EL ASPE

Ya hemos conseguido el segundo objetivo, que era la tapa dura. De aquí en adelante, todo lo que consigamos será para intentar darle más páginas. Por soñar que no quede, aunque está difícil. Con 20000 euros llegaríamos a publicar el libro como se concibió en un primer momento, con 240 páginas que redujimos a 200 para lanzar el proyecto. Y con fotos como esta que a día de hoy no entran en el libro.

Está difícil, pero está cerca. Quedan 10 días para conseguirlo, vamos a por ello.

Mil gracias de corazón a toda la gente que habéis participado ya.

#01 / NUEVO OBJETIVO

Gracias a tod@s l@s que habéis contribuido, nuestro libro "MOUNTAIN DREAMS" es ya una realidad. Hemos conseguido la financiación necesaria para sacarlo adelante. Ahora, en los días que restan, VAMOS A INTENTAR HACER MEJORAS. Por tanto, el segundo objetivo es poder publicarlo con tapa dura, y para eso nos hemos marcado 17.500€. ¡Vamos a por ello!
