Patricio,

You are a wonderful photographer. Thank you for sharing these shots with us. I hope you post more soon. I always love rehearsal shots, even more than of actual performances.

Every time I look at your photos, Patricio, I wonder when/if your company will come to the States. Any plans? Susan

patricio this pictures are wonderful …incredibles…..you are the best, really …….

You work is so consistently gorgeous, Patricio, I really am in awe of your craft. Thank you (as always) for being a continuing source of inspiration to me! I particularly like the one of Luis’s calves, although they are so veiny it’s a bit scary!

I love this series — it’s like the legs are the roots on which all else is built. I love how you capture the form and the musculature, the feet. The veiny one says it all!
