Yesterday, my father-in-law invited us to go out to eat at a place on the outskirts of the city, and since he picked us up in his car, I took the opportunity to bring my camera with me to take photographs of whatever caught my attention on the way. I must say it was a very fruitful day in terms of photography, I managed to take 16 photographs that I liked because all of them are full of their own stories.

I will start with this photography. The story behind it is that there was a man sitting on a piece of furniture. It might look "normal," but it was quite random because he was on a traffic island, literally in the middle of two streets, and in front of him, there was only a trash can, but he was there, like the king of his world:

The following photography is of the anonymous heroes who keep our city clean. What caught my attention the most is that all of them were quite young:

The following photography is of some stalls selling Christmas accessories that are set up on some streets only during the month of December, and behind them, the newest building in the city: modernity and tradition in a single photography:

Speaking of tradition, the following two photographs are my favorites because they show a very Venezuelan tradition, something you can see all over Venezuela: a family preparing the traditional hallacas in December and cooking them with firewood outside their homes, almost in the street:

The following photography is also one of my favorites. In it, I was able to capture 2 military personnel:

At this point, we had already moved away from the city, and the landscape change,; we start to see more nature and a different atmosphere...

I saw some people selling pork outdoors...:

Also, some men trying to fix a Volkswagen car:

A young boy leaving his house...

I saw two Venezuelan empanada stands:

A gentleman who is clearly just starting his kiosk, with only what he has and step by step:

This is the appearance of a grocery store, selling fruits and vegetables on the outskirts of my city. Although both photographs are of two different stores, they have the same essence:

And I say goodbye with this photography of a man with a disheveled appearance pushing a cart. What impacted me the most during the few seconds I could observe him was that he was smiling the entire time despite carrying a heavy load!

I took all these photographs with my Canon R8 camera and a 24-105mm lens from a moving car!

I hope you found the photographs as interesting as I did, and thanks for watching!
