At this point, it's more than obvious that one of the things I love to do most is go out and take photos. For me, it's a way to relax and connect with myself and the present moment. It's one of my favorite activities, so I go out almost daily to take more photos.

These photos that I'll share with you today I liked a lot because they are very varied and dynamic, each one is very different from the other and in all of them there is a lot of life!

I took the first photo because there were two people jogging and that's something very common to see in my city, I liked the urban atmosphere that surrounds the photo:

An ice cream vendor watching a man walking with his dogs:

I took the next photo seconds later, I liked it because there are many things happening at the same time:

The next photo I took is of the urban landscape of my city, to take this photo I positioned myself in such a way that we can see over the bridge and below at the same time:

I've told you on several occasions that my city is built on top of mountains so there are many steep streets and precisely those streets create interesting perspectives for taking photos:

On another side of the city I saw some people filling a truck with things:

In another part of the city I saw some stairs and wanted to explore them, just at that moment a woman passed by and I took a photo of her:

I kept walking to another part of the city and found a boy riding a bicycle, when he saw me with the camera he shouted "photo!" and this was the result:

In Venezuela it's very common to see people selling coffee on the street and these are the thermoses that are used to sell it:

Something that is also very common in Venezuela is to see old cars still in circulation, on this day I was able to take photos of several of them:

The next car is old but it was restored and looked beautiful, a gem!

I liked the next two photos a lot because they tell a story, in the first photo there was a man counting his coins to buy a candy:

In the next photo he was already grabbing his candy:

I hope that this glimpse into the life of a city in Venezuela has seemed interesting to you and that you like the photos as much as I do, thanks for everything!!

It is fascinating to observe how you capture your city day to day ... I aspire and I hope to do a similar job in my city, when I can return to Venezuela.

Thank you for sharing your work that is inspiring, without a doubt.

Really solid set — there’s a raw honesty in how you frame the everyday.

You’ve shown a side of Venezuela that feels lived-in, not just observed.

Curious though, from your perspective, how have things been shifting day to day in the city? Any changes you've noticed over time, either in the mood or how people are getting by?

Thanks you really much for your appreciation!

people are getting tired, that's sure!
