"STOLEN STORIES" - MONOMAD - 06OCT22 || ENG-ESP || (10 Pics)
Days go by, and I still have the opportunity to do what I like most: "photography".... And hand in hand with that, I also have the pleasure of savouring every tiny story behind the pictures I take... Also its memories populate me to the rhythm of the street and rural captures, because I have always lived here and my memory is linked to every corner of this small village immersed in its dramas and oblivion, but never leaving behind its typical eloquence.
Pasan los días, y yo sigo teniendo la oportunidad de hacer lo que mas me gusta: "fotografías"... Y de la mano de eso, también tengo el placer de saborear cada historia diminuta detrás de las fotos que hago... También sus recuerdos me pueblan al compás de las capturas callejeras y rurales, pues he vivido aquí desde siempre y mi memoria está ligada a cada rincón de este pequeño pueblo sumido en sus dramas y olvidos, pero nunca dejando atrás su típica elocuencia.
"Dad, the bike is broken"... The story in this photo is simple, its title (lately I've taken to giving titles to photos, I'm getting older, heh heh heh) is the phrase I heard the boy say from a distance, while his father was trying to get the old motorbike to work.
"Papá, la moto está rota"... La historia en esta foto es simple, su título (últimamente me ha dado por ponerle títulos a las fotos, me estoy haciendo mayor, je je je) es la frase que le oí decir al niño a la distancia, mientras su padre intentaba hacer funcionar la vieja motocicleta
"Sadness arriving in the village"... The village is so strange sometimes... It often gives me this kind of complex and at the same time sad scenes... This one is taken from one of the secondary accesses to the village centre...
"Tristeza llegando al pueblo"... El pueblo es tan extraño a veces... Con frecuencia me regala este tipo de escenas complejas y al mismo tiempo tristes... Esta está tomada desde uno de los accesos secundarios al casco urbano del pueblo
"The man sweeping"... The fog makes everything become something different... This is a photograph of the owner of a grocery store sweeping his street, next to him is the bicycle with which he makes home deliveries... But the fog turns it into something more complex and visually delightful.
"El hombre barriendo"... La niebla hace que todo se convierta en algo distinto... Esta es una fotografía donde se observa al dueño de un abasto barriendo su calle, a su lado está la bicicleta con la cual hace los repartos a domicilio... Pero la niebla lo convierte en algo más complejo y visualmente delicioso.
"Trying to wake up"... Sometimes the town wakes up slowly, as if the fog is stubbornly trying to keep it asleep... Then, timidly, vehicles and people start to appear to try to go about their daily business...
"Intentando despertar"... Algunas veces el pueblo se despereza lentamente, como si la niebla se empecinara en mantenerlo dormido... Entonces, tímidamente, los vehículos y las personas comienzan a aparecer para intentar realizar las actividades cotidianas...
"Like in the 80's"... A couple of streets away from my house, the same city garbage truck from when I was a kid, is still doing its job... I've seen three of its drivers die in my lifetime... What a strange town!... I've also seen many of the employees who work on that truck come and go... The old cars parked in the streets may also have more than four decades wandering around the town... This photo is practically the same as some scenes from that street that I looked at as a child...
"Como en los 80"... A un par de calles de mi casa, el mismo camión del aseo urbano de cuando yo era un niño, sigue haciendo su trabajo... He visto morir tres de sus chóferes a o largo de mi vida... ¡Vaya un pueblo extraño!... También he visto ir y venir muchos de los empleados que trabajan en ese camión... Los viejos autos aparcados en las calles también pueden tener más de cuatro décadas deambulando por el pueblo... Esta foto es prácticamente igual a algunas escenas de esa calle que miré siendo un niño...
"Shhhhhhhhhh"... Some streets, in some moments of the morning, are silence and solitude in pure state... Barely disturbed by an occasional stray dog that crosses in front of the lens...
"Shhhhhhhh"... Algunas calles, en algunos momentos de la mañana, son silencio y soledad en estad puro... Apenas perturbados por un ocasional perro callejero que se cruza ante el lente...
"The woman and the smoke"... She doesn't notice it, but I love to observe how from some houses white puffs of smoke come out from the fireplaces used to cook with wood... To most people it seems like an everyday occurrence, but I am captivated by these simple facts...
"La mujer y el humo"... Ella no se percata, pero a mi me encanta observar como desde algunas casas salen gajos de humo blanco proveniente de los fogones usados para cocinar usando leña... A casi todos les parece algo cotidiano, pero a mi me cautivan estos hechos simples...
"The years seen"... Ah, the windows... I love the old windows that are still there, as faithful witnesses of the village's stories, full of scars and steeped in times gone by...
"Los años vistos"... Ah, las ventanas... Amo las ventanas viejas que todavía siguen allí, como testigos fieles de las historias del pueblo, repletas de cicatrices y embebidas en tiempos pasados...
"Alberto and Carabobo Avenue"... Hummm, I remember Alberto (lower right corner) always living in that old house on Carabobo Avenue... Today his house is almost falling down and so is he, as the years have taken their toll on both of them... But it is only time that will decide how long they will remain there, in that old avenue that every day loses more and more of its old corners of yesteryear.
"Alberto y la Avenída Carabobo"... Hummm, recuerdo a Alberto (esquina inferior derecha) viviendo desde siempre en esa vieja casona de la Av. Carabobo... Hoy su casa está casi en cayendo al igual que él, pues ya los años han hecho mella en ambos... Pero es solo el tiempo quien decide hasta cuando permanecerán allí, en esa vieja avenida que cada día pierde más de sus rincones de antaño.
"Martin the kite maker"... It's funny, but Martin seems to age very slowly, as he still looks quite strong and I have to confess that I bought kites from him when I was a child... And that was more than four decades ago... Who knows!... Maybe the art of making kites makes people age more slowly... heh heh heh :-)
"Martín el fabricante de volantines"... Es curioso, pero Martín parece envejecer muy lentamente, pues sigue luciendo bastante fuerte y tengo que confesar que yo siendo un niño le compré volantines a él... Y de eso hacen más de cuatro décadas... ¡Quien sabe!... Quizás el arte de fabricar volantines haga que las personas envejezcan más lento... je je je :-)
So this is another entry with my "Stolen Stories" to take part in today's #monomad challenge... Because the stories I steal, always seem to me to be in black and white... As if time froze and the colours disappeared, leaving only the "soul" of the scenes...
Así que esta es otra entrada con mis "Historias Robadas" para participar en el reto #monomad de hoy... Porque las historias que robo, siempre me parecen estar en blanco y negro... Como si el tiempo s congelara y desaparecieran los colores, quedando entonces solo "el alma" de las escenas...
A hug to all of you, thanks for stopping by and appreciating...
Un abrazo para todos, gracias por pasar por aquí y apreciar...

Beautiful pictures my friend. The mist creates a nice atmosphere.
Dear friend, thank you for your constant appreciation and encouragement!...
For me, black and white photography is always nostalgia.👍
Yes, the black and white is nostalgia, enclosed times, expression and eloquence hand in hand with a deep feeling... When the colours are gone, the soul of the image remains, then there is something of a poem in it...
Thanks for sharing @deliberate friend!
Excellent photos and framing, dear friend. I liked the first photo more
Thank you very much for stopping by and appreciating... Oh yes, I thought that photo said quite a lot too.... ;-) Have a nice day!
