When symmetry is everything./ Monomad Challenge [Eng/Esp]

|
I think I’m a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to symmetry—not just now, but ever since I was a kid; I remember that even when drawing in school, it bothered me. I’m telling you this because yesterday I was taking photos at one of the city’s most iconic buildings, the “Edificio Arcos,” in the Nuevo Vedado neighborhood. |
Creo que soy un poco obsesivo cuando de simetrías se trata, no ahora, desde niño; recuerdo que hasta para dibujar en la escuela aquello me causaba ruido. Les comento porque ayer estuve haciendo fotos en uno de los edificios más emblemáticos de la ciudad " Edificio Arcos" en el barrio Nuevo Vedado. |

Its origins date back to the 1930s, when architects took design very seriously—at least the ones here; I could see that for myself when I reached the staircase area. |
Sus inicios datan de la década del 30, cuando los arquitectos se tomaban muy en serio el tema del diseño, por lo menos los de aquí; eso lo pude constatar cuando llegué a la zona de las escaleras. |

|
Wow, I was enchanted by its design—how the lines intersect, the geometric shapes that emerge as you climb; in short, for someone as obsessed as me, it was a visual paradise. |
Wow, quedé encantado con su diseño, de cómo las líneas se van cruzando, las figuras geométricas que se hacen a medida que sube; en fin, para un obsesionado como yo, era un paraíso visual. |

|
And that’s despite the fact that I’m afraid of heights, but that wasn’t enough to stop me from going up and down two or three times looking for the perspective I wanted. |
Y eso que le temo a las alturas, pero aquello no fue impedimento para subirla y bajarla 2 o 3 veces buscando la perspectiva que quería. |

|
Every so often, a neighbor would peek out, intrigued by my presence there taking photos; I don’t think it’s something they see every day. |
A cada rato se asomaba algún vecino intrigado con mi estancia allí haciendo fotos; no creo que sea algo habitual para ellos. |

|
It really couldn’t have been a better afternoon; these were photos taken with pleasure and intention, among the ones I’ve most sincerely enjoyed in quite some time. |
Vaya que mejor tarde no pudo ser; fueron fotos hechas con gusto e intención, de las que más he disfrutado sinceramente desde hace tiempo ya. |

|
I think I spent almost an hour on this, until the dizziness got the better of me and I ended up heading to a café to indulge my vices. |
Creo que estuve casi una hora en esta tarea, hasta que el mareo me venció y terminé camino a un café para alimentar los vicios. |

|
Which of the images is your favorite? I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments; for now, I’ll say goodbye, thank you for visiting and for your company. See you soon. |
