Today I can say that I skipped the routine of my days. And all thanks to the fact that someone invited me to drink the first-morning coffee at her house. Great, I said to myself. I jumped out of bed very early, took a shower, put on my outfit (you know) and grabbed my bike. I have to say I brought the coffee, the coffee pot and something else... I'm Shelnixxx. You wouldn't stand me. Lol. I'm laughing my head off writing this.
(reality often surpasses fiction) 😂 - no, she told me that her coffee pot was not working properly.
100th Street, Marianao Obelisk.
The street is always so lively... of course, I couldn't leave the Panasonic Lumix at home gathering dust. She also accompanied me on the adventure. We both knew that we would end up chatting as only we know how, I mean, so intimately... 😜
I was there for a while at the house of this girl I've known for a long but short time. Yes, let me explain. We met one day when I was visiting my best friend. We saw each other quickly and then for some reason we exchanged some sporadic messages on WhatsApp. Yesterday was one of those days. She lives relatively close to my house, so, why not? I've put a lot of locks on the door of meeting people in real life. Today I decided to remove some of them.
At the place where the coffee and biscuit tasting took place, my Lumix wanted to be involved.
The talk was very engaging and I didn't notice that two hours went by very quickly. So I said goodbye as soon as I realised it was getting a bit late. People have their own plans and their own lives... so I went out to the street again and looked around to see with joy that many images would be captured today.
Again I said ‘great!’ and thanked the girl and the Universe for the good times.
The guava juice was tasty, in case you read this post. 😁
I got to the roundabout at the Obelisco and Ciudad Escolar Libertad, stopped in front of the Elderly Residence, which is also located there, and took out my camera.
Ready for the #Monomad Challenge? We'll see.
As soon as I looked over, I saw the old woman waiting. I thought she must be scorching in the sun. And I was worried because she wasn't moving. 🤔
I was at a roundabout, I photographed a lot of cars, but while I was editing the photos I thought that the best thing for this post would be the people.
San Alejandro Academy of Fine Arts
Harsh shadows and scenes that caught my attention, one after the other.
The visit or the disconnection? It is unfortunate that some people can't take their eyes off their mobile phone while life happens.
The mind knows how to group information at the subconscious level. I made two similar captures and only 7 minutes passed between them.
Here I started thinking about white garments and magically I got what I wanted.
And I think this shot needed a bit of colour where I left off... 😉

I love your photography! 😍
I'm glad you love my photography. 😇 Thanks for stopping by.
Right words, most people are so immersed in their virtual world that they are completely disconnected from reality. Very nice images and excellent writing. Regards ☺️
Life is full of distractions. 😁 The important thing is to be pleased with ourselves and what we give.
Amazing shots you have there. , maybe it's because I love to see tall buildings , that number one is my favourite..
Thank you for your nice comment. It encourages me to keep working and trying to improve. I like to show the everyday scenes of the city. 👍
I have never had guava juice and I am not a coffee lover, but I am alover of first class photography, awesome captures
I'm blushing, very blushing. Thanks. 😀
lol 👍
For a year I visited the Obelisk every day. I studied at the pre-university next to it. It is a very beautiful and busy place. Its construction was dedicated to the Cuban Scientist Carlos J Finlay. Beautiful photos, you highlight the life of the Cuban in his day to day. Happy Saturday and let's see what you have in store for us today. 🥰❤️
Mamani, no he podido preparar nada porque estuve sin corriente hasta ahorita. Ya veremos qué surge. Ahora recién almorcé. Muchos besitos y gracias. 🤗
Fantastic way to break the routine!.... And I don't mean just that coffee! but also these great photos!....
This photo in special is like to be exposed!....

One of my favourites. Thank you, my friend. Your opinion is very valuable to me.

Estoy en el aeropuerto, no puedo ✏️ mucho, pensé que se entendía 😃.
Hasta mañana 👋
😱 platillos voladores. Buen viaje entonces. 👋 Hasta mañana.
🛸 😃👋
Life happens, a lot of things happen and people don't see it... either because they are looking at the phone or because of something else.
How cool is that umbrella!
I really liked the image of the art school!
I'm so glad you had a great time with your friend and the coffee.😃
A ver qué hago yo juzgando, ¿eh? 😂
¡Gracias!
🤣🤣🤣🤣 De nada! Buenas noches!!
I'll take the first photo, I love that monument. And in the photo it looks as majestic as it looks.
Great the others too.
Bueno, si la vas a hacer así ya sabes más o menos dónde pararte ;)
Pero tu foto será única. No tendrá las mismas nubes, ni las mismas personas pasando. Jjjj...
😂 bueno, cuando pase por ese lugar veré si me animo a tomar ma foto.
I love the pictures!
It's so nice that you took some time to get out of the routine and have coffee with someone you know. It's good to get rid of those locks we self-impose to meet new people. I realize as I get older how valuable it can be to not have them.
Happy weekend!
It's good to get out of the routine, yes... but my friend, you want me to be honest with you...? I feel more comfortable talking to Panasonic Lumix. She and I have a lot in common. 😅
(feliz domingo)
Maravillosa fotos, capturando de detalles, 👏👏👏🌻🦋🌈
Gracias por los aplausos, @sucetmaga64 😅. ¡Saludos!

Muchas gracias @jlinaresp y @visualshots 🤗
It's very interesting to observe people through your photos, they don't know what they are now being observed!
And it's that there is nothing faked, you can tell, it's real life captured in black and white with no frills....
I hope it was a nice evening...🙂
The translator is crap
🌻
Es que el español es complejo. Para una mejor performance del translator escribe las oraciones muy simples y directas y no olvides especificar el género... Ella, él.
Realmente les robo el alma.
;) Gracias @adaluna1973.
Ok....gracias a ti @nanixxx.
