A week ago I attended a protest to demand the release the victims of arbitrary arrest under the State of Exception which was imposed a year ago. The image which stuck to me was of a child who was playing as he walked along the protestors with a message written by hand “FREE MY DAD”, his father has been in jail for months .The civil society as well as national and international human rights organizations have criticized for lack of due process and the use of torture against detainees. Hace una semana asistí a una protesta para exigir la liberación de las víctimas de detenciones arbitrarias bajo el Régimen de Excepción impuesto hace un año. La imagen que se me quedó grabada fue la de un niño que jugaba mientras caminaba junto a los manifestantes con un mensaje escrito a mano "LIBERAD A MI PAPÁ", su padre lleva meses en la cárcel. La sociedad civil y las organizaciones de derechos humanos nacionales e internacionales han criticado la falta de garantías procesales y el uso de la tortura contra los detenidos. #EverydayElSalvador #LatinAmerica #CentralAmerica #NorthernTriangle #Bukelismo #StateOfException #RegimenDeExcepcion #WarOnGangs #Bukelismo #HumanRights #ArbitraryArrest #photojournalism #Bukele #Nayib #Democracy #HansLucas #CivilRights #JuanCarlos #2023copyright

20 Years Since the Invasion of Iraq - (Operation Iraqi Freedom) / 20 años desde la Invasión de Irak - (Operación Libertad Iraquí) Two decades ago I decided to venture into covering the Invasion of Iraq, I was as green as a spring grass field, but decided to go witness history, a sad part of history I may add. I had never covered a war although I had escaped a civil war which was devastating my homeland of El Salvador during the mid eighties, my only experience with a conflict was what I had witnessed as a child. So, I bought a bunch of (@ilfordimaging) Ilford HP5 B&W film borrowed an extra Nikon F90 camera from my friend and fellow photographer @yuke_73 so I could have an extra body other than my Nikon F3 HP (@nikonusa) and headed to Iraq, ended entering and covering most of the war in Kurdistan (Northern Iraq) because it was the best war to enter the country already at war, took this decision after taking advise from a couple of photographer who had covered this region before Ed Kashi (@edkashi )and Ken Light (@kenlight_photo_ ). So, this was then beginning of my career as a photographer and paved the way to one of my career interest. NOTE: A blog post about this experiment coming soon!
