Hello to all lovers of black and white 馃憢
Here in central Cuba, we are still wet. The rains continue and, as a result, the streets are flooded.
The sample I bring you today captures precisely this reality. It is a glimpse of everyday life in the midst of these conditions, where people try to continue with their routines.
I wanted to add two photographs to this sample that I took with my phone. I didn't have my camera with me at the time, but I didn't want to miss the opportunity. It was 6 a.m., and we were all under umbrellas, and there was a beautiful rainbow in the sky as a result of all the humidity and the sun coming out.
Although we usually see photographs of rainbows showing the beauty of their colors, I found it interesting to convert this image to black and white. The contrast that was achieved made it seem as if everything was protected and sheltered under its arch.
Hola a a todos los amantes del blanco y negro! 馃憢
Por ac谩, por el centro de Cuba, seguimos mojados. Las lluvias no cesan y, como consecuencia, las calles est谩n inundadas
La muestra que les traigo hoy capta justamente esta realidad. Es un vistazo a la vida cotidiana en medio de estas condiciones, donde las personas intentan continuar con sus rutina.
Quise agregar a esta muestra dos fotograf铆as que realic茅 con mi tel茅fono. Pues no ten铆a mi c谩mara en ese momento pero no quer铆a perder la oportunidad. Eran las 6 am y ya todos est谩bamos bajo paraguas y en el cielo se ve铆a un hermoso arco铆ris como resultado de tanta humedad y el sol saliendo.
Aunque solemos ver fotograf铆as de arco铆ris mostrando la belleza de sus colores, llevar esta imagen al blanco y negro me result贸 interesante. El contraste que se lograba hac铆a parecer que todo estaba protegido y resguardado bajo su arco.
