LIMA: THE ROUTINE THROUGH THE GRID

Urban Geometry · Chapter XVIII


“In the city's grid, every walker is a framed story.”
“En el enrejado de la ciudad, cada caminante es una historia encuadrada.”


English

Back in Lima, I went for a walk today and took the opportunity to capture some shots, returning to the observation of the daily routine. From the moment I step onto the bus, I start composing, searching for human framings and observing everything that surrounds me. I had to go to the bank for some errands, and along the path of metal grids, I enjoyed stopping to take photos using the bars as a frame to make the subject fit, while everyone continued with their day.

"Bus stops are also an excellent point; I loved how feet change within the same photograph, working layer upon layer."

In the end, I couldn't take more photos because I had to stay alert and stop distracting myself with the camera. I took a break and headed back home. Urban photography in Lima requires that balance between the artistic eye and the survival instinct.

"Peace, Love, and Unity. Best vibes to everyone."

De vuelta en Lima, hoy salí de caminata y aproveché para sacar unas fotos, volviendo a observar la rutina del día a día. Desde que subo al bus ya empiezo a hacer encuadres, a buscar framings humanos y a observar todo lo que me rodea. Tenía que ir al banco a hacer unos trámites; en el camino de enrejados, me gustó detenerme y sacar algunas fotos con encuadre, haciendo que el sujeto encaje mientras cada quien sigue en su día.

"Los paraderos también son un punto excelente; me encantó cómo los pies cambian en una misma fotografía, trabajando capas sobre capas."

Al final no pude hacer más fotos porque tenía que estar atento y ya no distraerme con la cámara. Me tomé una pausa y volví a casa. La fotografía urbana en Lima exige ese equilibrio entre el ojo artístico y el instinto de estar alerta.

"PAZ, AMOR Y UNIDAD. Buenas vibras a todos."
