Sunset on the Colegiales Rails - Monomad Challenge [15 Pics]

Today is such an important day for my country (Venezuela), It's the presidential elections and we are all waiting for there to finally be a significant change, I have been watching social networks, TV and looking for all the possible information about what is happening in real time, but this is a personal issue I just wanted to share my current state of mind.

Let's get to what my article today about street photography really refers to, obviously and my entry for the Monomad challenge today.

Come with me to see some shots I took on a bridge where you can see the rails near the Colegiales station in Buenos Aires, Capital.

I walked there right during sunset and with luck and a little time on my hands I was able to capture some trains passing by, the first photo shows one side of the track and the next photo shows the opposite side with a beautiful natural tunnel, formed by trees.

I was waiting a few more minutes before leaving there and I was also lucky to see both trains passing in different directions.

It's a good place to admire the sunsets, I have personally witnessed intense colors, yellows, gold and fuchsia in combination with the landscape, the rails and transportation, I think I shared those photos with you some time ago. Also, it is not a very busy area even during rush hour.

Here we can see the sun setting, part of the bridge and some other shots of the trains passing by.

But... this walk was not only about taking photos on the bridge, I needed something else to complement and share something more complete, so I took some other photos in the surroundings, photos of someone passing by, some cars and streets.

What do you think about this shot? "I am a better person since I met you" while a cyclist crosses the bridge and in the background many tree branches. To me, it seems to be an interestingly composed photo.

Below, two photos of one of the streets near the bridge. Something special about some neighborhoods of the capital is this formation of trees that form a bridge. It's visually captivating 👇🏻

Every time I have been here I have taken some photos of this dome of this church but I have never dared to go there and see it, I should do it one day.

The following is a mini set of three photos that I took while climbing the bridge on one side, a second photo of that no parking sign and a third photo when I get off that sign of unfinished work.

To finish, a Bonus of 2 photos of... A simple motorcycle. Since I've been walking the streets with the 85mm lens I've been interested in capturing vehicles, I think the depth of field or bokeh with this lens for photos like this is really cool. So it is very likely that you will soon see my photos of motorcycles, cars, bicycles and more 😂

I hope you liked them and that you have a great Sunday 😊

Hive Power Up Day - August 1st 2024

Some beautiful street portraits that you managed to take my brother, I am amazed by you, how you quickly took two trains that passed on different tracks, this is very cool.
I really enjoyed your street portrait today.

It's a very attractive area to take some shots. I'm glad you liked them, thanks for stopping by man. Have a nice week

Gracias por tus impresiones y puntos de vista de Buenos Aires...🔥...¿Cómo te sientes después de las elecciones presidenciales en Venezuela...?

La verdad, bien... Tengo mucha experiencia en este tipo de escenarios, podía imaginar que terminaría así y así terminó. Cómo dice la canción de Queen: "Show Must Go On" 😅

Gracias por preguntar amigo y por apreciar estas fotos. Que tengas excelente semana.

There's something about trains. They always seem very expressive for any picture taken towards that direction no matter whether is Black and white or coloured. Maybe the thing that they are loaded with so many stories...

Trains are great for photography, also train or subway stations and I agree with what you say at the end.

I am happy to read your comment on one of my posts 😍 thank you very much for your time and appreciation.

Have a beautiful week @gabrielatravels ❤️

The pleasure was mine, as always!! Have a beautiful week too! ❤️

Sunset will always be my fav scenery 🥺
