It's always a good time to stop and take some pictures you didn't plan to take, you make the decision in fractions of a second and suddenly you're there, trying to create something. In the city of Buenos Aires, specifically in the Retiro neighbourhood is a business area of gigantic modern buildings. I interrupted my trip to go down in this neighbourhood and try some low angles.

These have been perspectives that I used to use when I started in photography and I don't know why I have stopped doing it, I guess to approach new themes or genres, however I remember every now and then how these shots look when you take them at ground level.

I found this area of the city quite attractive because of the big buildings and the affluence of employees that pass through here... These are the results.

This has been one of the photos that I liked the most, from my imagination I got lines on the floor, the tiles are a good support material because it allows me to get texture in addition, two people walking and that flag of Argentina that adorns the image very well.

This is a very busy transfer area and many students walk through here as well, and there are several underground stations with which to make combinations. I was able to capture some of this, people going in and out of the towers and those three buildings in the background.

This area is great to achieve many things, depending on the result you want to get, my opinion is that for close up pictures of giant buildings it is interesting and appropriate to use a wide angle lens, I have used one for the following picture but not exactly for my camera, I have used the one from my phone as it was a split second decision to decide to go down in this station.

Even if I had decided to go with my camera I don't have that lens either, it's too expensive and it's one of my favourites, I hope one day I'll buy it and give it the use it deserves, meanwhile I'll keep using the one from my phone 😅

This is the main entrance to the Catalinas Plaza tower, some palm trees of the business centre are in the frame.

At that time it was 1pm, the light was very harsh and some of the photos were taken against the light, practically blind. I took the decision to play a bit with the tones and edit the blue and green tones and lower the lighting and saturation of these trying to get a kind of Moody style.

The next photo also has its own charm, I think... You can just see those people in shadows and that division between one building and another leaving the sky as a space I found attractive.

Here is a view from the other side of the avenue where you can see two signs pointing to Leandro N. Alem Avenue and Enrique Butty Street.

It seems that at the time of the construction of all these buildings they had in common to make them with a certain style, almost all of them are covered by blue glass and have a certain resemblance in this sense. This photo is from another part of the avenue where you can also see the kick of the metrobus.

These photos are part of the business centre Catalinas Norte located in the Retiro neighbourhood in the autonomous city of Buenos Aires.
