A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of taking a trip to a tourist town about 45 minutes away from where I live. What's special about this place is that all the houses have a preserved colonial facade.
That day, I took a lot of photos, but in this post, I want to focus on the street photos I captured there. In most of these photos, people are the main subjects, which gives them a greater visual weight.
This was the first photo I took. I liked it because of the guys' outfits in the shot:
Further on, I saw a small, very humble shop where they sell natural honey. I tried to make the photo as symmetrical as possible:
I saw an elderly man selling fried food and took a photo of him from a distance:
Then I approached him and asked if I could take a photo. This was the result:
At that very moment, I saw a sport motorcycle pass by:
And a little while later, I found the same motorcycle already parked:
I also saw this very cool car:
The next man was selling sugar balloons:
This man is always in the same spot, making bubbles to sell toys to children:
As I walked through the town, I saw this man playing guitar to earn some tips:
I saw this girl with a very cool outfit:
Every small town has a central plaza, and there I was able to take this photo of an adorable little dog:
I took this photo because the woman had been sitting there alone for a while. She seemed to be waiting for her family, but the whole time I observed her, she was by herself:
This boy saw me with the camera and greeted me, as if asking for a photo:
A photo of a dome:
And I saved my favorite photos for last. As I was walking, I saw a traditional candy shop, and the employees were wearing clothing characteristic of the Andean people. I asked them if I could take a photo, and I captured this:
I took all the photos with my Canon R8 camera and a 24-105mm f/4 lens.
I hope you liked these photos as much as I did!
