Just People || Monomad
Hello black and white lovers. Saturday afternoon and it had finished raining. The sun was just coming out when I set out to take some snapshots. That mix between cloudy sky in the background, good sun and reflections of the wet ground are a good combination. Light of course is fundamental. For street photography I prefer good light, high contrast, going with the dramaturgy of the type of photography. For architectural photography hard light is spectacular. When the day is cloudy and there is soft and even light I like to do another type of photography, portraits, close-ups and that type of image, more romantic so to speak. And look at me here talking like an expert in photography when I'm just an amateur, but that's what I see and feel when I take pictures. This time I want to share with you a series of street images where ordinary people prevail. They are made in a very central area in Vedado in the capital. Just people going about their daily business. Nothing more, nothing less. With these shots I want to enter the daily challenge #monomad. Bye!

Hola apasionados del blanco y negro. Sábado en la tarde y había terminado de llover. Justo salía el sol cuando me dispuse a tomar algunas instantáneas. Esa mezcla entre cielo nublado de fondo, buen sol y reflejos del suelo mojado son una buena combinación. La luz por supuesto es fundamental. Para la fotografía callejera prefiero buena luz, alto contraste, van con dramaturgia del tipo de fotografía. Igual para la fotografía arquitectónica la luz dura es espectacular. Cuando el día está nublado y hay luz suave y pareja me gusta hacer otro tipo de fotografía, retratos, acercamientos y ese tipo de imagen, más romántica por así decirlo. Y mírame yo aquí hablando como un experto en fotografía cuando solo soy aficionado, pero es lo que veo y siento a la hora de hacer capturas. En esta ocasión quiero compartir con ustedes una serie de imágenes callejeras donde priman la personas comunes y corrientes. Son hechas en una zona a muy céntrica en Vedado capitalino. Solo la gente en su que hacer diario. Ni más ni menos. Con estas tomas quiero hacer entrada la reto diario #monomad. Bye!

Hello @roswelborges
This is my own !BEER
Have fun with it!:)
I love the title of the publication because it fits perfectly with these photographs. It is undoubtedly beautiful to capture the spontaneity and naturalness of people in their daily lives.
Excelente trabajo mi amigo, 👏
I also love those radiant days with good light to take photos, although that moment, as you mention, when the sun comes out and then it rains, is also perfect, mixing some perfect tones and contrasts.
These street shots are wonderful! There’s a real charm in capturing people going about their daily lives and your photos make the ordinary feel special.
Great, great Street Shots
