Hello to the entire Hivers community.
The month of white is already upon us, and what better way to kick it off than by presenting this brief selection of black and white photos for the first time. They were captured through the lens of my Samsung Galaxy A16 mobile phone as I walked through places that, although everyday for many, hold a hidden beauty when viewed without colour, trapped between small lights and deep shadows. Where there are corridors that hold stories, trees that cast unexpected shapes, and abandoned corners that breathe life.

📸 1. The corridor to the DICT
This image is from inside the main building of the Enrique José Varona University of Pedagogical Sciences. It is an almost dark corridor leading to the Node and the Directorate of Scientific and Technical Information (DICT), better known as the Varona library... a silent corridor where the light barely touches the walls, yet invites you to move forward. A place that seems to stop time to remind us that every path to knowledge involves a little mystery.
How does it make you feel?
📸 2. Shadows of the little tree
The second photograph is of a small Christmas tree and its shadows in a play of natural light. This creates a beautiful contrast, in my opinion, almost poetic.
Sometimes you just need to look at the shadows to discover how they draw their own reflections.
📸 3. The abandoned park
The following photographs are of the only park left in my town of Santa Fe, Playa, which is in darkness. A space that, despite its silence, is full of details:
• A hammock hanging still, as if waiting for someone to come back and swing in it.
• The front door open, without a grille... as if time had left behind the need to close it.
It was late at night, and from the gentle gusts of the breeze, you could see the little piece of moon in the background, a silent witness to a place that still holds its own memories.

In itself, each black and white photo is a reminder that beauty is not always obvious. Sometimes it is in what we hardly see: a distant noise, a recurring shadow, an empty corridor, a park that no one looks at, a moon that appears when we are about to leave.
Thank you for stopping by. Greetings to all.

Hola a toda la comunidad de hivers.
Ya el mes blanco se encuentra entre nosotros y que mejor que presentarles por primera vez está selección breve de fotos en blanco y negro. Fueron capturadas desde el lente de mi móvil Samsung Galaxy A16 mientras caminaba por lugares que aunque cotidianos para muchos, guardan una belleza escondida cuando se miran sin color atrapada entre pequeñas luces y sombras profundas. Donde hay pasillos que guardan historias, árboles que proyectan figuras inesperadas, y rincones abandonados que respiran vida.

La segunda fotografía es de un pequeño arbolito navideño y sus sombras en un juego de luces naturales. Este crea un contraste hermoso, a mi entender, casi poético.
A veces solo hace falta fijarse en las sombras para descubrir cómo dibuja sus propios reflejos.
📸 3. El parque abandonado
Las siguientes fotografías pertenecen al único parque que queda en mi localidad de Santa Fe, Playa, el cual se encuentra en penumbras. Un espacio que, pese a su silencio, está lleno de detalles:
• Una hamaca quieta, como esperando que alguien vuelva a mecerse.
• La puerta de entrada abierta, sin reja… como si el tiempo hubiera dejado atrás la necesidad de cerrarla.
Era tarde-noche, y desde los impulsos suaves de la brisa podía verse el cachito de luna al fondo, testigo callada de un lugar que todavía guarda sus propias memorias.
