GREY MORNING STREETS - MONOMAD - Street photography from Montalbán, Carabobo, Venezuela || ENG-ESP || (9 Pics)
Hello #Hive monochromatic friends!... Yesterday afternoon was very rainy here in my village and today in the morning the weather was still quite humid and with an awned sky full of grey clouds... And when the morning is like this and I'm out wandering around the streets, then I turn into something like: "Arthur Schopenhauer walking through Montalbán while pondering and taking street photos"... :))
¡Hola amigos monocromáticos en #Hive!... La tarde de ayer fue muy lluviosa aquí en mi pueblo y hoy en la mañana el clima seguía siendo bastante húmedo y con un cielo toldado y repleto de nubes grises... Y cuando la mañana está así y yo salgo a deambular por las calles, entonces me transformo en algo como: "Arthur Schopenhauer caminando por Montalbán mientras cavila y hace fotos callejeras"... :))
And when I bring Schopenhauer into this, I do so because of the - almost always facetious - way in which regular philosophy readers refer to the constant and marked tendency towards nihilism present in the thought of this already legendary German philosopher of the 19th century... Be that as it may, these grey mornings of the rainy season make my photographic eye instinctively seek out scenes of chaos, visions of decay and abandonment.... And those photos are (in my opinion) excellent for turning to our beloved monochromatic scheme!...
Y cuando meto a Schopenhauer en esto, lo hago por la manera -casi siempre jocosa- en la que los asiduos filosofía se refieren a la constante y marcada tendencia al nihilismo presente en el pensamiento de este ya legendario filósofo alemán del siglo XIX... Sea como sea, estas mañanas grises de la temporada lluviosa, hacen que mi ojo fotográfico busque instintivamente escenas de caos, visiones de decadencia y abandono... ¡Y esas fotos son (a mi juicio) excelentes para virar a nuestro amado esquema monocromático!...
Sometimes it is slightly difficult to go out on the streets on a day like this Wednesday with grey skies and not give in to depression. It seems to me that these scenes explain what I'm saying... Everything seems to be slowly and inexorably disintegrating here, and that is something that can affect my mood. However, this is a risk that I suppose all street photographer has to take from time to time.
A veces es ligeramente difícil salir a las calles en un día como este miércoles de cielos grises y no ceder ante la depresión. Me parece que estas escenas explican esto que digo... Todo parece estar desintegrándose lenta e inexorablemente aquí, y eso es algo que puede afectar mi estado de animo. Sin embargo, este es un riego que supongo todo fotógrafo callejero ha de corres de vez en cuando.
