Resetting the world

Lisbon street photography bw 3.jpg


Sometimes, when I start editing photos, I ask myself "Didn't I shoot this one already?". It does look like I shoot the same thing whenever I visit Lisbon. The old parts with narrow streets and old buildings, tiny balconies that look so sad for some reason, lamps... They might all look similar, but they are not.

What I like the most about this part of the city is that the modern word mixes up with the old-fashioned style. The fancy brands, cars, and expensive shops stand right next to old, tiny balconies and falling apart walls.
As if one era was thrown to where it doesn't belong. But which one?

I like them both. I like that it mixes, and I like that just around the corner, you can see something you did not expect. One minute you are in a big, buzzing capital city, and the next you are transported to a small town with a slower pace.

Yes, I did mention in some posts before that I like contrasts like that.

Right on the main street, there are tiny shops filled with traditional food and snacks. Be it cookies or some savory pasties. The codfish one is pretty good, though typically for the place, it is overpriced :p

Streets with restaurants and shops end up with a few abandoned windows.
One would think that property in this part of the town would sell like hot buns.

I still don't dare to photograph people right in their face. I wouldn't want that, so I avoid doing it too.
Other parts are another story. :)

Ha - someone spots stickers now 😁

It seems that the world still didn't reset... or? From where do I write now?

avatar

They are everywhereeeeee!! :D
I still dont get why people do it, but some, like this one was quite funny.

It seems that the world still didn't reset.

Button is broken :(

Good afternoon dear friend @ewkaw
What a beautiful city, I like the architecture of the period buildings, the narrow and cobblestone streets. There are many things about this city that are very similar to the city of Buenos Aires. Argentina
Urban photographs, especially when there are people, are complicated to photograph, it is not something that attracts people, you have to be very careful and avoid a conflict
I love monochromatic shots, these are really beautiful
Have a beautiful night and a happy rest

Yea, I try not to be too invasive when taking photos on the streets. So far so good :)

avatar

The first one picture is really amazing, congratulations friend, nice post, greetings 🙋🙋🙋

Yayyy :D :D

avatar

If only that button was actually working :)

Nice shots!

avatar

It doesn't... I tried a few time and nothing happened :p

Thank you :)

avatar

I like every picture.
I find it interesting to take them this way in black and white because it's as if each photo can speak for itself. Together they could tell an excellent movie story.

avatar

We kind of need a real button like that one, given how humanity is evolving... :) Lovely photos!

avatar

Yep... Can you imagine how popular it would be? :p

Thank you :)

avatar

I would be smashing it! :)

avatar

I burned my milk - smash!
bad hair day - smash!
Missed the buss - smash!
Oh so that's the euromillions numbers.... - smash smash smash!!!!!

😂

avatar

Oh, what a healthy button. 😅☕ And the restart has to bring coffee.

avatar

Yes please.. and cheesecake :D

avatar

"Push to reset the world" 😄 lol

avatar

One of the coolest stickers in the a perfect spot I saw.

Asking for a friend :D

avatar

So we actually never had apple cheese pie? :D

avatar

What will happen if you push that button? Haha.

avatar

The feel of black and white is too beautiful. Nice shots!

avatar

I wish a single button can solve all our problems
Life would have been easier😉

avatar

Loving the mono views, brings a different perspective to photography (in general). Lisbon I have only visited once, in 2023, found it to be a pretty decent city to visit

avatar

Thank you!
I think generally people visiting like it. There is a lot to see and the city has its own cool feel.

avatar

Yes I did enjoy it very much only a couple of days, but crammed with stuff
