Loteria

November 13, 2012  •  121 Comments

When I was a child my father enjoyed Loteria.  He was very happy to show his children how he played the game as a child.  I played it many times and was always enamored of the images.  As a photographer I always wanted to do  my own version with a photo realistic approach.  Many have tried to photograph Loteria, but to do all 54 images as close to the real game in a photo realistic manner is difficult, even for an accomplished artist.   My progress on this major project can be seen here - http://www.lasphotos.com/loteria      I have a new appreciation for Loteria and have gone to great lengths to find the props and items in the game, making many of my own.  This project will take all my artistic and photographic skills to accomplish. 

For example, El Paragus was a technically difficult image to produce.  The umbrella is under simulated rain using real water drops.  The planning took several weeks.  The 14 foot 1/2" copper pipe was drilled with over 200 hotles and had water running in it.  The shot used 7 strobes and a complex set up to hang the backdrop and umbrella.  It took me over four hours to set this shot up.  And I shot from late afternoon until dusk, to get the perfect image.   Here is the set up:

And the final image after some work in Photoshop:

I enjoy gambling online mainly because of the wide range of games available. There’s always something new to try, from slot machines to live casino games. The bonus offers keep the fun going for longer too. But one thing I’ve learned over time is how important it is to set a budget. Gambling can be a fun way to pass the time, but it’s not worth risking too much. I always decide how much I’m willing to spend before I start. That way, even if I lose, I don’t regret it. Gambling is all about balance — enjoy the excitement, but don’t let it take control of you.

I’ve always been fascinated by the world of online casinos. There’s just something exciting about spinning the reels of a slot machine or testing your skills in poker against real players. The convenience of playing from home while still getting the full casino experience is unbeatable. Plus, the variety of games available online is just massive. From classic card games to modern video slots, you’ll never run out of options. The bonuses offered by these platforms make it even more enjoyable. Getting free spins or welcome bonuses is a nice touch for players who want to explore more games. It’s also great that most top casinos now offer secure payment methods, which gives me peace of mind whenever I play. Honestly, if you’re someone who enjoys gaming and wants to test your luck, an online casino is a fun and rewarding option to try.
