Empty Streets: Easier to find in certain circumstances (Qurator PhotoQuest and Monomad Challange)

Hi,

Last Saturday, when I checked the weekly theme for the Qurator PhotoQuest at first, I thought it would be easy to find in my photo library photographs of empty streets. But obviously, I was wrong and it has taken me quite a while to find photographs where no people appeared in the foreground, background or background.

After reviewing many photographs, I found several reasons why it was difficult to find photographs with empty streets and one of them is that generally in Spain the weather is very good and we like to be outside our homes occupying the streets, parks and terraces.

So I had to look for pictures of places I have visited in winter and where the interior climate of the peninsula, which is colder, invites one to stay at home.

Of course, the rain, more typical of the north of the peninsula, is another of those phenomena that empty the streets and if it is accompanied by unpleasant wind, better than better to stay at home with a blanket reading post in Hive.

In general, most human beings are animals of diurnal habits. The sun nourishes our skin and invites us to be outdoors.

So, another good occasion to get photographs of empty streets was to look for night themed photographs. Being this photograph of these huge flower pots the one I liked the most when I edited it in black and white.

Finding pictures of empty streets in big cities is also practically a chimera. We are many tourists visiting places of interest and getting a photo surrounded by solitude is practically impossible.

However, when one gets lost in small medieval villages, everything is easier. There is a Spain, the one they call emptied, where the youth has migrated to the cities and where there is hardly any population and which are a real wonder to get lost in its streets that once were the cradle of medieval civilizations of great historical relevance.

Greetings.
