This is a kind of mix between cinematic and black and white, although the latter could also be considered cinematic even if there is an absence of colors, no? Anyway... Today I want to share with you some shots in the H line of the Buenos Aires subway, particularly in the Humberto I station. It is a station that attracts you and forces you to take some pictures because of the aesthetics, the dimensions, the modern and everything you can find there, good angles and lines.
The moving trains when they are entering or leaving the platform while people are waiting to get on, is a typical, favorite and very attractive scene.
At first I didn't intend to share both versions in the same post but when editing I always try how they look in both ways or styles and honestly there are photos that deserve to be shared in black and white because they express something different and you can play much more with the contrasts, even giving a more nostalgic touch. It also happens with photos where there is a certain symmetry, even if it is very minimal, there is a noticeable difference.
As I usually look for some reflections of any place, it is already a habit to rest the camera or phone on one of the benches in the station, the material with which it is made allows me to get a little reflection although sometimes you can barely perceive it.
Finally I have these last two shots, the last one I define as a normal photo, a structure of the upper part of the station but the previous one caught my attention and I don't know why I like it so much, it is possible because it is different from what I usually do. It seems to be crooked or indeed it is but it has something that I find interesting, what do you think?
I hope you liked this series and I thank you for coming here. Greetings and a hug. Have a nice day :)
