Mario Gustavo Fiorucci
I have 50 years, live in La Pampa in Argentina and is from 2007 when I bought my first digital SLR camera that I begin to spend much more time to shoot. I'm a fan of almost all the photographers of the Magnum Agency, Pedro Luis Raota, Cartier Breson, Miguel Lasa, Alan Murphy and many more. It would be irresponsible of me to say that I am a specialist in something. I try to get everything I like, from sports, B & W, color, street scenes. etc, not pigeonholed into one thing. I have made clear that the nature photography is a passion.****^^****/////Winner of the federation's annual ranking of Argentina in the category Photos Nature of 2009////.-.- Finalist International Competition The Great Age of New York in Category News and reports from the site in 2009 for his work "High in the sky"////.-.- Finalist International Competition Birds of Spain in the World Wetlands Status in 2009 with his work "Hooded Gull Cafe"////.-.- www.seo.org/home_articulo.cfm?id=4175////.-.- www.fotogrupo30-40.com.ar/noticias/090727_autnatu.html Best Play Author Argentino International Photo Contest-group category 30/40 Nature for his photo "Burrowing Fly" in 2009////.-.- www.fotogrupo30-40.com.ar/noticias/090727_autnatu.html ////.-.- Honorable Mention at the World Cup FIAP 2009, integrating the team picture, 30/40 Group of Argentina for his two works "Defense" and "Hungry Calandria"////.-.- www.fiap.net/photoWC.php?param=4FWC6&num=11&lang=fr////.-.- www.fiap.net/photoWC.php?param=4FWC6&num=12&lang=fr////.-Second Prize XI International Apiculture Photography Contest 2011- Canon 40D* //// * Canon 100-400 l EF IS USM f 4,5-5,6 *////* Canon 18-55 mm f3.5-5.6 EF-S *////* Nikon D50 */////* Nikon N90x 28-200mm 3.5*/////*-5.6D AF Nikkor.

It’s hilarious that they are all standing on one leg. The one in the middle cracks me up. Great catch!
