I don't like the intense midday sun. Today, I was going to go out at noon, but when I saw how strong the sun was, I immediately gave up on the idea because I was walking. Every time I go out, I try to have my camera in hand, but it really wasn't worth it.

That's why I waited until 5 PM, and the scene was completely different. Just before heading out, I tested the light by taking a portrait of my niece. Then, I went about my errands and saw how the environment drastically changes (for the better) when the sunlight is diffuse.

This is definitely one of my favorite times of the day, along with the early morning hours.

From 10 AM to 4 PM, I don't feel like going out, but obviously, when it's necessary, it's necessary.

However, if it's for pleasure photography, I definitely prefer to leave my camera at home.

The photos end up overexposed, and no matter how much I adjust the exposure, they don't turn out the same.

I'm not saying you shouldn't take photos at that time because there are diffusers and other photography tools, but if it's street photography, you can't control the environment.

ESPAÑOL

No me agradan los fuertes ratos del sol. Hoy iba a salir al mediodía y cuando vi sol inmediatamente desistí de la idea porque iba a pie. Cada vez que salgo procuro tener mi cámara en la mano, pero realmente no valía la pena.

Es por eso que esperé a las 5 de la tarde, y el panorama fue totalmente diferente. Justo antes de salir, para probar la luz, le hice un retrato a mi sobrina, y luego salí a hacer mis diligencias y pude ver cómo el entorno cambia drásticamente (para mejor) cuando la luz del sol está difusa.

Definitivamente, esta es una de mis horas favoritas, al igual que las primeras horas de la mañana.

De 10 a 4 de la tarde no me dan ganas de salir, pero evidentemente cuando toca, toca.

Pero si es para hacer fotografías por placer, definitivamente prefiero dejar mi cámara en casa.

Las fotos quedan sobreexpuestas y por mucho que exponga, no quedan igual.

No digo que no se deba tomar fotos a esa hora, porque para eso hay difusores y otros implementos de dirección de fotografía, pero si es foto de calle, uno no puede controlar el entorno.
