My entry to the #monomad challenge: Street Snaps and Milestones

in Black And White4 months ago

So, this past week, I've been all about staying on top of my game, especially when it comes to leveling up my learning and growth on the platform. But before I jump into today's #monomad entries, I gotta share some exciting news... I just hit my 7kHP milestone! Finally, after a month of grinding—posting, engaging, staking; I’m inching closer to that 10kHP goal. It didn’t hurt that I snagged some $Hive tokens on the cheap from the exchange. Fingers crossed the price stays low until the end of the month so I can grab some more for my 9th HPUD!

Now, about my #monomad challenge entry; I’ve been feeling this urge to stay productive, even when I’m on the go.

Whether I’m walking, on the bus, or just waiting for the pedestrian light to turn green, my smartphone’s always ready. It’s wild how convenient it is to snap a pic of something that catches my eye.

Lately, I’ve been hitting the streets, capturing shots of anything that makes me pause and take notice. The street's my comfort zone for photography; everyone’s wrapped up in their own world, so I can take photos without anyone even noticing.

There’s so much cool stuff to capture on the street. Take shadow photography, for example. Ever really notice how shadows can create these super interesting patterns?

Sometimes they’re more pronounced, and if you pay attention, the pavement beneath your feet can become a whole work of art.

Another spot that grabs my attention is construction sites.

There’s something about them that just clicks for me. The stuff happening there is so different from our daily grind; unless, of course, you’re a construction worker yourself. Watching a guy hanging from a rope, painting a building’s side? That’s wild.

It makes me wonder how someone even gets into a job like that, and what kind of training they go through. It’s fascinating to think about how these massive structures come together.

Street photography’s a solid way to break out of your routine. It pushes you to think, create, and share something fresh with the community. I’m hyped to share my shots with the Black & White community here on Hive. Hope you dig the photos!

Nice shots!

Thanks 🙏

photographing on the street is something interesting for anyone. especially with black and white visuals because with black and white visuals we are not disturbed by color interference, so the emotions in black and white photos tend to be stronger and directly conveyed. The contrast between light and shadow can create a dramatic atmosphere and leave a lasting impression on the memory. Thank you for sharing. Your photography works are very interesting and can be a motivation for me to continue creating more interesting photos.

Totally agree with you in that. Im very much into bnw photography because of what exactly what you said in your comment. Thanks for the inaightful feedback, appreciate it 🙏
