Sergio Larraín pictures, the trip to the magic

I'll write about one of my favorite photos, that was taken in some year that I dont know, but I'm sure that was in the 50' decade. The photo was made for the most important photograhper of our country: the talent and mysterious Sergio Larraín. Sergio was born in Santiago in 1931, and took his first photos in 1949, at the early age of 18 years. In that moment he worked with the children that lived under the bridge of Mapocho river. 
After some years of traveling, Larraín went to Europe and entry to work in the famous Magnum Agency. There he show a photography work that he made in Valparaíso. With that photos he gained all the respect of the critics and others europian artist.

For me, this is the most special photo of that brilliant work:

 I dont know if this photo has a name, but i know that was take in the Valparaiso beach. I think that is a magic picture, because it demonstrate a active perception that the photographer need to use to capture that instant. The magic moment when the girls are smiling on the air is something beautiful. 

Well, i leave you a photo of Larraín too (:
