My favorite photograph





This photograph was taken by a Chilean photographer, called "Nicolas Marquez Peñaloza". He was born in Vichuquén, Maule, Chile. He´s a Mapuche descent.
The photograph shows the beautiful lake Vichuquén with geographic shape of a witch. It is a place with abundant flora and fauna.
The landscape is graced by swans and cattails in all seasons. It is a tourist area, ideal for family trips and for practice water sports. In summer people mainly it mobilized by boat and sailboat.
It was taken the winter of 2013.
I like this photograph because it is in the hotel courtyard, where I spent my childhood. It brings back fond memories with my parents and friends. It is a very serene and quiet place. It is interesting also because it is a place of many legends about witches, and this area of the lake is called "Coven" meaning witch meeting. 
In the middle of the lake there is a green island with no inhabitants, very tenebrous and mysterious .

How sports can improve Chilean life standards?


Sports can improve the level of standard in Chile decreasing the rate of obesity, improving physical fitness, stamina, and other factors to improve eating habits.

For the poor population, it is generally more difficult to access places and dangerous practice in street for the crime.

One problem is that the ministry of sport offers limited possibilities to access the desired sport. In my opinion, to increase the sport should provide compulsory sports in higher education. And the entire population access to sports such as golf, polo, rugby, and not always the basics sports like football and basketball.

The benefits would be healthier population thus increases the life expectancy of a broader culture of sports and a healthy body.
