Backlight Shots.
The light has definitely been to my benefit these last days, despite always walking through the same area, it does not stop seeing me attractive and it is mandatory to take some photos, the sunset has been very friendly and I have given my light, Because for photographers this is a gift, we get excited every time we see a golden hour, blue hour, sunsets that can draw. Obviously in the edition we usually give a special touch in terms of intensity, contrasts and balance of blacks and white.
Backlight shots are much more interesting for me because the image has more body and is less flat.
I tried to always walk the sidewalk with more light intensity And although in me there are many distracting elements it is possible to appreciate the urban landscape in these conditions.
When I was about to arrive at one of the bus stations (Metrobus) I thought about taking a photo through the seats but wanted to capture a person in the middle of this, I took these photos until you get two results.
Which one do you choose? The man alone or the man with the bus? Man is just my favorite for that reason this on the cover of this post :)

This is another of the photos that I liked the most for the way light is drawn in concrete, While on the right side you see shadows also in the background you can appreciate an intense light next to a bit of fog that was fading.
I also tried to do the same take with the same perspective in one of the station seats but this time in the opposite direction of the avenue.

This seems to be an avenue very chosen by me on many occasions, well I do not choose, I'm just there because it is my area 😅
However, there are many ways to portray the streets and you will always find something different, I have learned that very well for many years of taking photos.
Many times emotions and mood can contribute to a certain kind of photos, day to day, physical conditions, climate and personal motivation.
So, I don't worry so much about the place as I did before. I just hope you liked this thing :)
That's all folks. Thanks for stopping by and appreciating.
