STREETS THE 31ST - (PHOTOGRAPHY SERIES)

Well, I think you already know me; I'm pretty obsessed with street photography, and I'm also pretty unemployed. After my childrens grew up and moved out, I decided to take life easy, even though I live in a country where that's hard to do. Anyway, yesterday afternoon, March 31st, I decided to do one last photo shoot to close out that splendid month, which left my files overflowing with images. So I grabbed my camera, put on sweatpants and some old sneakers, and headed for a walk along one of the intercommunal roads that connect Montalbán with the town further northwest called "Aguirre." But, true to my usual unpredictability, I ended up wandering aimlessly through the town's streets and took these photos that I'm sharing with you today on #Hive...
Bien, creo que ya ustedes me conocen; soy un tipo bastante obsesionado con eso dela fotografía de calle, y además soy un tipo bastante desocupado, pues después de que mis hijos crecieron y se emanciparon, decidí tomarme la vida con calma aún viviendo en un país en donde eso es difícil de hacer. Pero el caso es que ayer 31 de Marzo en la tarde, me dispuse a hacer un ultimo recorrido fotográfico para cerrar ese espléndido mes, el cual dejó mis archivos repletos de imágenes. Así que tomé mi cámara, me puse pantalones deportivos y unos viejos tenis para ir a caminar hacia una de las carreteras intercomunales que conectan Montalbán con el pueblo más al noroeste llamado "Aguirre". Pero, fiel a mi acostumbrada impredecibilidad, terminé caminando sin rumbo fijo en las calles del pueblo e hice estas fotos que traje para compartir con ustedes hoy en #Hive...

Awesome pics, as always. 🥰 You always share a hundred percent real street atmosphere and I love it, plus black and white gives us so many colors we couldn't imagine if it was "in color". :) I wanted to reblog it but says "fail".
Thank you for appreciating this work, @bibana friend, and for the motivating comment! I don't know why your "reblog" might be failing; I've been sharing posts normally today without any issues. I suppose it was just a temporary glitch!
Beautiful street photos, always featuring an excellent variety of eye catching scenes. Best regards, my friend!
Thanks a lot for supporting this work @naitreart friend!
