Hello, Hive friends:

I confess that sometimes my body craves going for a walk. It's as if my subconscious won't accept excuses and pushes me to search for images on the street, even though there are miles of Caribbean sun burning down on the asphalt. I know I'll be exhausted afterward and complain a lot, but it doesn't seem to matter.
Other times, however, it doesn't even want to move a few meters. Inspiration is satisfied with a few streets, and there I am, in the middle of a dilemma: do I walk around the city or sit on a corner and see what happens?

Today's photos come from those moments when I barely walked a couple of meters and ended up sitting on a corner. At first, I didn't pay much attention to them; I confess that I was lazy and underestimated them. But once I got home and looked at them calmly, I found them charming... and that's why I'm sharing them with you today.*

Hola, amigos de Hive:
Les confieso que veces el cuerpo me pide salir a caminar. Es como si el subconsciente no aceptara excusas y me empujara a buscar imágenes en la calle, aunque haya kilómetros de sol caribeño ardiendo sobre el asfalto. Sé que después quedaré agotado, y me quejare mucho, pero no parece importarle.
Otras, en cambio, ni siquiera quiere moverse unos metros. La inspiración se conforma con unas pocas calles, y ahí estoy yo, en medio del dilema: ¿recorro la ciudad o me siento en una esquina a ver qué ocurre?
Las fotos de hoy surgen de esos momentos en que apenas caminé un par de metros y terminé sentado en una esquina. Al principio, no les presté demasiada importancia; confieso que me dio pereza y las subestimé. Pero ya en casa, al revisarlas con calma, les encontré su encanto… y por eso hoy las comparto con ustedes.

That's all for today. Thank you for joining me on this journey. Sharing it with you truly gives more meaning to what I do. I would love to read your thoughts in the comments. I always enjoy responding!
