Sumario:This article aims to reflect on the tensions between the intentions of the research and the realities of fieldwork in the context of the production of photographic images in a series of workshops carried out in a peripheral neighborhood in the city of Córdoba (Argentina). The initial proposal was centered on the elaboration of visual narratives from the neighborhood, in order to respond to the stigmatizing views elaborated from outside. In the possibility of producing their own images, the importance of nature and beauty appeared in the perception of the neighborhood, where the inhabitants find value in their natural surroundings, often ignored by people from outside this neighborhood. The research reveals that neighborhood identity is not to be found in the cultural representation imposed from outside, but in the everyday experience and contact with nature.
