Streets, harsh light and the shadows - for my friend Jesus.
Today we had a short conversation with my dear friend @jlinaresp today. The conversation was of course about photography and about our habits. In one of previous posts he wrote about the suanny weather - "all those harsh lights and extreme shadows, make it difficult to manage the exposure and usually tend to disturb the visual context in the photos" (https://ecency.com/hive-142159/@jlinaresp/streets-and-thoughts-monomad-bandw-photography-from-montalban-carabobo-venezuela-oror-eng-esp-oror-09-pics)
And when i read this, I remembered that long time i always tried to avoid coming the deep shadow and the harsh sunlight to my frames. I was so devoted to my desire to clean and clear and existing of the shadow. But, something happened, i got a few images with the shadow inside of them and even somehow these shadows where destroying my usual clean images. that's how we fell in love with each other :-)))
And as i wrote to @jlinaresp - one of the classic old photographers (i don't remember his name) said - i prefer to expose by the light, who cares what's in those shaded parts.
I love to put the additional geometry, created by the shadows made by harsh light inside of my frames. It become a wonderful addiction.
And as an amazing continuation - @jlinaresp tried today to walk and to photograph during these light conditions. Here is his recent post with the results - please take a look !!!!!
And this series i dedicate to my dear friend. I hope that these images will inspire him (and possible you, dear readers) for another walks during the strong sunlight days !
For these who are still love to hang a prints to their walls or to use a postcards to write one the back some beautiful word to their loved ones.
Printable Art of many of my works is available in my Redbubble Store :

Oh dear @victorbz friend, I am very honored by this post!... Thank you very much, you are very kind!!!... Certainly, I have never been much of a person who goes out to take photos in bright sunlight, but now after all that I have seen in your photos and your advice, you can be sure that now you are the "certain culprit" of the "Crazy guy with the camera in hand" also appearing in the streets of little Montalbán town in full sun!!!! hahahaha :)))... New level unlocked!.. hahahaha :)) This is fun, certainly... But today it is 39°C here, so I will leave it for tomorrow!... :))
