“History is who we are and why we are the way we are.”
David McCullough
History
History is the science in charge of studying the past of mankind. To do so, it is necessary to compile and analyze events that took place in the past, making it essential to turn to historical sources to learn information about the events that took place in a certain era.
A few years ago, we took a brief trip to Puerto Cabello, a Venezuelan port city located on the shores of the Caribbean Sea, which during the colonial period, suffered attacks and plundering by pirates and English, French and Dutch corsairs, enemies of the Spanish Crown.
The historic part of the city is characterized by its old buildings with well-preserved colonial facades, which in recent times have allowed it to become an attractive tourist destination.
As I have described in previous posts, I process the original photographs using the editing tools offered in their free versions by the applications Picsart and Snapseed.

Hace unos años atrás, realizamos un breve paseo a Puerto Cabello, una ciudad portuaria venezolana ubicada a orillas del Mar Caribe, y que en el período colonial, sufrió ataques y saqueos por parte de piratas y corsarios ingleses, franceses y neerlandeses, enemigos de la Corona Española.
La parte histórica de la ciudad se caracteriza por sus antiguas edificaciones que poseen fachadas coloniales muy preservadas, y que en tiempos recientes le han permitido ubicarse como un atractivo destino turístico.
Como he descrito en posts anteriores, las fotografías originales las proceso haciendo uso de las herramientas de edición que ofrecen en sus versiones gratuitas las aplicaciones Picsart y Snapseed.
All the Photos are of my Authorship, as well as the Edition of the same ones.
