"STREET WITNESS" - Street photography from Montalbán, Venezuela - Week 11

tcats.jpg


Street photography is a kind of hobby that forces you to change constantly. Of course, I am speaking from a very personal point of view, whose opinions and statements come from my internal experience. So it can be said that "everything I write about photography is something I think"...

As some of you here at #Hive know, I take photos almost every day and always in the same streets of my hometown. So this is something I started doing more than a decade and a half ago, but when I started I thought it would be something I would do for a few months and then stop doing, as I had already been addicted to macro, birds and also landscape photography and after a few months I was looking for another kind of photos to take. However, with street photography, something different happened...

T04.jpg
📷 04-"Sad Sunday peace"

I started to take street photos and I understood something: Photos like macro, nature, landscape, architecture and so on, are photos where the main goal is (usually) to achieve a technically acceptable image. That is, the image is valuable largely due to its technical quality and the concept factor (message, meaning, you can call it whatever you want) is perhaps of secondary relevance. But in street photography there is a lot of "psychic" charge that is somewhat delicious and addictive once one has become addicted to it. That's when wonderful and also a bit crazy things start to happen. Like "seeing the world sometimes in colour and sometimes not" or "lying on the ground in the street to take a picture of someone sleeping off a drunk" and hearing a child say to his mother: "Mum, here comes the crazy guy with the camera in his hand"... Then photography becomes something else and a part of oneself.

📷 05-"WTF?"

T06.jpg
📷 06-"That ugly neighbourhood corner"

And so that's (more or less) how I ended up making this kind of photo, thinking as I take them, guessing what's going on behind them, inventing sometimes strange titles for them and writing a lot of lines when I share them with you here on #Hive....

📷 08-"Epitaph for a dead school"

These photos are diverse. As diverse as the street itself or as diverse as the ideas that come to my mind while capturing images in the streets. But the truth is that in their own way they are a document and also a kind of record of how I change over the years doing this. That's why I love to be putting all this on Web 3.0 thanks to #hive blockchain. I feel that in a way I'm leaving a message for the future for myself and strangers. And by the way, a very personal message, because that's what these photos look like.


And of course, here are the "even more dramatic" monochrome versions for these photos... (CLICK on the image to enlarge please)

ADDITIONAL TECHNICAL NOTE: Photographs captured with my Nikon D7000 DSLR camera in RAW format, then processed in Adobe Camera RAW for adjustments regarding light, sharpening, contrast and depth... The shots are then exported to JGP format on which minor modifications such as straightening and adding watermarks were carried out using PhotoScape 3.6.3.


Thank you very much for your visit and appreciation!
