THE TOWN AND THE COUNTRYSIDE - MONOMAD - PHOTOGRAPHY STORIES || ENG-ESP || (11 pics)

Montalbán is a town where, even today, rural life often blends with life on the town's paved streets. So, in this sort of "intermission" between these environments, I often wander freely, taking photographs as well... These photos, which I'll be sharing with you today on #Hive, reflect that: what I observe on the outskirts of town where the countryside begins, and what I find even further afield, when I truly delve into rural corners...

Montalbán es un pueblo en donde aún en estos días la vida rural se funde con frecuencia con la vida en las calles asfaltadas del pueblo. Entonces, en esta especie de "intermedio" entre esos ambientes yo acostumbro a deambular a mis anchas haciendo fotografías también... Estas fotos las cuales estaré compartiendo con ustedes hoy en #Hive, corresponden a eso, a lo que observo en los bordes del pueblo en donde comienza el campo y a lo que encuentro incluso más allá, cuando me adentro de manera franca en los rincones rurales...

There's something that happens, at least for me, when you visit rural areas as often as I've been recently, and that's that you end up wanting to spend more and more time there... Time in the countryside seems to pass more slowly, and of course, the sight of the landscapes, the animals, the simple things happening, and even the happy, relaxed air of the people; all of these are things that make being in these places feel so good... Plus, the rainy days are becoming fewer and fewer, and the days of bright sunshine and clear skies make it all the more enjoyable...

Hay algo que sucede, cuando menos conmigo, cuando se recorren espacios rurales con la frecuencia con la que lo he hecho recientemente, y es que surgen las ganas por estar cada vez más tiempo en esos lugares... El tiempo en el campo parece correr más lento y por supuesto, la visión de los paisajes, los animales, la cosas simples sucediendo e incluso el aire feliz y distendido de las personas; todas esas son cosas que hacen sentir muy bien el estar en estos lugares... Además, los días de lluvia son cada vez menos y los días de sol brillante y cielos despejados, hacen que todo esto sea aún más agradable...

My, I absolutely love this one. She looks like she’s carrying emotions she wants to let out but she knows no one can hear her. Really beautiful.

I enjoyed reading this btw:) have a pleasant week.

Yes, Susy is one of those dogs whose gaze touches the soul; I met her on a friend’s property, she lived there, now every time I go there I pet her, take pictures and bring her some kibble… Miguel (that’s the name of my friend who owns that old farm) says that Susy wanders away from home and into the fields and sometimes appears with little kittens who she takes care of while they are small, so Susy is responsible for there being several cats in that place! 😂… Here it’s usual to find semi-wild cats roaming around the fields, but Susy seems very willing to domesticate them! 😂… Thank you for appreciating my work and supporting @teknon friend!

My, I wasn’t expecting this sort of breakdown about her personality. Reading it excites me. I guess Susy is such a great dog then. Loves to care for other animals not minding the kind.

Thank you for this reply. Kinda made my day.

Thank you for appreciating my work and supporting

My pleasure🩶
