Hello photography lovers friends! These are fresh photos, they are from early Monday... I woke up in the mood to walk a good roof, so I left the streets of the village behind and went towards the roads that lead me to the valleys of Aguirre (a town near my village) and made a lot of photos to share here in #Hive with you...
After walking about four kilometers along an asphalt road, I decided to take the trails that lead through the grounds of some farms where cattle and horses are raised. The weather was excellent for walking and of course for taking pictures, as the fog was present everywhere...
I attached a 50mm fixed lens to my camera. Maybe this was not the most suitable focal length, as pictures like these are usually easier to take with a zoom lens, but on the other hand this lens is extremely clear and that allowed me to be very comfortable during all my hike shooting photos...
Due to the dense fog the visual distance was limited, this adds a nice "mysterious aspect" to the photos, but I also noticed that this prevented me from seeing some cows around to take more rural themed photos. But I know the weather here very well, so I spent a lot of time taking pictures of other things while waiting for the sun to start evaporating the morning fog...
As I predicted, the sun began to clear the fog and... The cows and horses began to appear! I then set out to take some photos of the paddocks where these animals graze. These types of photos are always bucolic to take and appreciate....
Thank you very much for your visit and appreciation!
