#438 - Black and white street shots.
Happy Friday evening my beloved Hiveans. It's the weekend and a lot of people has ended their work week already and are ready for a couple of days rest. I will end my work week tomorrow Saturday and will only have one day of rest because I have to attend a training on Monday for the entire day. So tomorrow afternoon once done with my shift, I also had to finish the laundry because we may have errands to do on Sunday.
Now for our photos of the day, it will be monochrome shots captured in the city of pines. This first photo shows an elderly woman on the side of the pedestrian road, she was sitting there in squat position while she extends her right hand holding a used cup noodles to beg for alms from the people that pass by. She could make or break the day depending on generous people that come by. But this is not a sustainable way to fill her empty stomach, she may have to move to another street and see her luck in there. The locals here are hardworking people but due to modernization, some of the farm people go to the city and find their fate just like this elder we see here in this frame. I just hope I won't have to do this once I get old, I hope to have my own roof by then together with my wife and boy.
Four pedestrians walking close to each other, I think they all know each other or friends perhaps. The two woman in front are holding hands as they walk down this hill of a road. They were still using faceshield back then when we went there for a vacation. Two of the women are looking straight towards me when I took this shot, they didn't bother as I pass by them on my way uphill.
Another pedestrian crossing where people walks. Some are also still wearing faceshield, some put it in their forehead.😁
This two pedestrian that I am about to cross path saw me taking photos but was not bothered and didn't question me. They may be used to scenes like this where tourists from different parts of the country come to their city and take photos almost anywhere. There is that other guy walking uphill with his helmet on.
Follow me on my street travels.
