There are places that I visit from time to time and many times without planning, I just walk by, I have my camera in my backpack and I stay watching the urban landscape, the people walking and the structures that surround me, it is impossible not to try some shots in these places of the city. Plaza de Mayo is one of them and most of these photos were taken there, heading towards the pink house, it's always a nice background.

Like a paparazzi this time, using the 55-200mm I was in various parts of the square waiting for some good moments, capturing some people doing something or some other scenery that caught my attention.

Hay lugares que suelo visitar cada tanto y muchas veces sin planificar, simplemente paso por allí, tengo mi cámara en mi mochila y me quedo observando el paisaje urbano, las personas caminar y las estructuras que me rodean, es imposible no intentar algunas tomas en estos lugares de la ciudad. La Plaza de Mayo es uno de ellos y la mayoría de estas fotos fueron tomadas allí, en dirección hacia la casa rosada, siempre es un lindo fondo.

Cómo un paparazzi ésta vez, usando usando el 55-200mm estuve en varias partes de la plaza esperando algunos buenos momentos, capturar a algunas personas haciendo algo o algún otro escenarios que llamara mi atención.

It' a very busy place, it is almost never alone, actually I think no day of the week since on Sundays there is a San Telmo fair that is near there and more people usually visit the square, there is nothing attractive per se but what is around it captivates many people. Walking around it is to feel that you are walking on something important and it is for those who know something of Argentine history.

Capturing the passage of people walking is great, but it depends on where you are, crossing a street or walking on a pedestrian walkway can be attractive but if we have historical buildings with this type of architecture or urbanisms with interesting designs, this makes the composition more attractive.

The next shot is my favorite by far. A couple talking on one of the benches in the square and the pink house in the background. The boy knew I was portraying him and agreed to it because he sometimes smiled at the camera 😅

Es un lugar muy concurrido, casi nunca está solo, en realidad creo ningún día de la semana ya que los domingos hay una feria de San Telmo que está cerca de allí y más personas suelen visitar la plaza, no hay nada de atractivo en sí pero lo que está alrededor cautiva a muchas personas. Caminar alrededor de ésta es sentir que estás caminando sobre algo importante y lo es para quienes conocen algo de la historia argentina.

Capturar el paso de personas caminando es genial, pero depende del lugar donde estés, cruzando una calle o camina di sobre el paso peatonal puede ser atractivo pero si tenemos edificios históricos con este tipo de arquitectura o urbanismos con diseños interesantes, esto hace más atractiva la composición.

La siguiente toma es mi favorita por lejos. Una pareja conversando en uno de los bancos de la plaza y de fondo la casa rosada. El chico sabía que lo estaba retratando y accedió a ello porque algunas veces sonreía a la cámara 😅

Here we have one of the cobblestone streets that leads to the neighborhood of San Telmo, in the background a dome of an important church in the area, a cyclist turning at the corner of the municipal palace and the imposing tower of the palace of the Buenos Aires legislature.

There is too much to photograph in this city, although sometimes the mood doesn't help me and imagination or creativity gets a little lost, apart from that, there are many possibilities and opportunities. I hope to continue taking advantage of them.

Have a great day :)

Acá tenemos una de las calles empedradas que nos lleva al barrio de San Telmo, al fondo una cúpula de una iglesia importante de la zona, un ciclista doblando en la esquina del palacio municipal y la imponente torre del palacio de la legislatura porteña.

Hay demasiado por fotografiar en esta ciudad, aunque algunas veces el ánimo no me ayuda y la imaginación o creatividad se pierde un poco, apartando eso, hay muchas posibilidades y oportunidades. Espero seguir aprovechandolas.

Que tengas un excelente día :)

What incredible captures, you are absolutely right when you say it is an excellent place to take pictures. I have always found photographs of people doing something striking and this is one of my favorites without a doubt:

I like to choose the backgrounds well for street photography, I also think it makes our work easier and they look beautiful on their own. I think that shot says something and that's good. It's great that you liked this set @naitreart
